Venus, which has been sail\u00ading back\u00adwards for over 40 days through Scor\u00adpio, and more recent\u00adly Libra, turns Direct today; and, with\u00adin hours of that shift Mer\u00adcury turns ret\u00adro\u00adgrade for 21 days, until Decem\u00adber 6<sup>th<\/sup>. It is not often that you will expe\u00adri\u00adence a dou\u00adble-shift of plan\u00ade\u00adtary motions like this, so you would be wise to con\u00adsid\u00ader what these mod\u00adu\u00adla\u00adtions mean for&nbsp;you.<\/p>\n<p>The 42 days of Venus ret\u00adro\u00adgrade were a time to go with\u00adin your\u00adself, a pause to allow you to dig deep into the nature of your expe\u00adri\u00adence of Val\u00adue, Beau\u00adty and Love. Venus is your Avatar of Love and she reminds you that with\u00adin you is a Super\u00adnal Light, which you will equal\u00adly see as the light shin\u00ading through the eyes of those who love you&nbsp;too.<\/p>\n<p>With Venus ret\u00adro\u00adgrade, you were offered anoth\u00ader oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adty to con\u00adsid\u00ader the true nature and source of your Val\u00adue, which is that you are a spark of the Divine and your true worth or val\u00adue is beyond mea\u00adsure; and to see that what is all around you, this radi\u00adant world of Beau\u00adty, is shin\u00ading pre\u00adcise\u00adly because that same Divine ener\u00adgy sparkles through the entire\u00adty of Cre\u00adation; and, to know that what is there with\u00adin you, what you know and feel as the Love of the One, is equal\u00adly a guide for you as to how you must be with one anoth\u00ader, for you are here quite sim\u00adply to love one anoth\u00ader as you are loved&nbsp;too.<\/p>\n<p>The les\u00adson of Venus ret\u00adro\u00adgrade reminds you that \u201ctrue love\u201d is nev\u00ader to be found \u201cout there\u201d, until you have met your beloved with\u00adin you. Until you expe\u00adri\u00adence the inner mar\u00adriage of your self with your Self, you can\u00adnot tru\u00adly see or find the love that is all around you&nbsp;too.<\/p>\n<p>Now that Venus is mov\u00ading for\u00adward once again, you are ready to relate to your\u00adself and your world with a new-found assur\u00adance of your own val\u00adue, which is beyond ques\u00adtion\u00ading since you are formed by spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal love; and you have a bet\u00adter under\u00adstand\u00ading and appre\u00adci\u00ada\u00adtion for the beau\u00adty in your world; and, you are more aware that the love you share with one anoth\u00ader is the whole rea\u00adson for this life, for you are tru\u00adly here for one another.<\/p>\n<p>But today you will equal\u00adly feel a shud\u00adder, shake (and you will have to roll), as Mer\u00adcury paus\u00ades and turns around one more time this year. Yes, yes it seems that when\u00adev\u00ader this hap\u00adpens life seems to get even more com\u00adpli\u00adcat\u00aded, con\u00adfus\u00ading and frus\u00adtrat\u00ading. Although it seems \u201cthe grem\u00adlins are let loose\u201d dur\u00ading such a time, you should know by now that your fate is in your hands, and it is not Mercury\u2019s pur\u00adpose to mess with your&nbsp;life.<\/p>\n<p>The rea\u00adson life seems to become more chal\u00adleng\u00ading at times like these is because you have failed to notice the chang\u00ading con\u00addi\u00adtions of your own mind, and equal\u00adly failed to appre\u00adci\u00adate how the gen\u00ader\u00adal men\u00adtal\u00adi\u00adty and nature of com\u00admu\u00adni\u00adca\u00adtions have been altered. You are here to \u201cWake Up\u201d and so you need to pay atten\u00adtion to these shifts of ener\u00adgy-forms and work with them. Mer\u00adcury ret\u00adro\u00adgrade is here to help you. It is here to help you to let go of your mis\u00adun\u00adder\u00adstand\u00adings, doubts and fears which have pre\u00advent\u00aded you from liv\u00ading in the Greater Reality.<\/p>\n<p>On the heels of re-eval\u00adu\u00adat\u00ading your expe\u00adri\u00adence of val\u00adue, beau\u00adty and love in Venus Ret\u00adro\u00adgrade, you will now be asked to con\u00adsid\u00ader once more the way in which you think about your\u00adself and your world. That is what Mer\u00adcury ret\u00adro\u00adgrade is for. It is meant to be a time of intro\u00adspec\u00adtion and reflec\u00adtion; it is a pre\u00adcious oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adty for review and repair of your per\u00adcep\u00adtions and consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>If we lived in a cul\u00adture that accept\u00aded and accom\u00admo\u00addat\u00aded these shifts of spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal ener\u00adgy, then we would all make time to calm\u00adly go with\u00adin and earnest\u00adly con\u00adsid\u00ader how we make our real\u00adi\u00adty through our thoughts. We would be able to bend our thoughts back upon our\u00adselves and be more self-crit\u00adi\u00adcal and self-aware, as we qui\u00adet\u00adly con\u00adsid\u00adered and re-cen\u00adtered our mentality.<\/p>\n<p>But we live in a cul\u00adture that is careen\u00ading from one cri\u00adsis to anoth\u00ader, and we work hard\u00ader and hard\u00ader, live faster and faster, and there seems no time to catch one\u2019s breath, let alone time to con\u00adtem\u00adplate, step back and con\u00adsid\u00ader what is real\u00adly hap\u00adpen\u00ading. We are all \u201cin the moment\u201d, but we are rarely present or pre\u00adpared to make the best of it before the next shock to our equi\u00adlib\u00adri\u00adum is upon us. But you must remem\u00adber this, the only thing you can and must con\u00adtrol is your\u00adself, and this starts with your&nbsp;mind.<\/p>\n<p>Mer\u00adcury ret\u00adro\u00adgrade offers you a time to pause pre\u00adcise\u00adly because you can\u00adnot \u201cgo for\u00adward\u201d eas\u00adi\u00adly now, because you are sup\u00adposed to \u201cgo in\u201d now before you \u201cgo out\u201d. You need to reflect and col\u00adlect your thoughts and become clear\u00ader and calmer.<\/p>\n<p>Right Think\u00ading is some\u00adthing to work for, strive for and it is essen\u00adtial in times like these so that you may sep\u00ada\u00adrate the wheat from the chaff in your world. This is tru\u00adly some\u00adthing that you should do every sin\u00adgle day. A self-aware per\u00adson, a more cen\u00adtered and bal\u00adanced indi\u00advid\u00adual, will begin every day with men\u00adtal prepa\u00adra\u00adtions of attune\u00adment and align\u00adment; and then they will hold them\u00adselves in qui\u00adetude and self-obser\u00adva\u00adtion through\u00adout the day; and then they will fin\u00adish their day with a time for review of what was right or wrong in that day, and so pre\u00adpare to meet the world with a clear\u00ader con\u00adscious\u00adness tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>The way to do this, the way to begin to estab\u00adlish your mind in a place of peace, is to anchor your mind upon the firm foun\u00adda\u00adtions of fun\u00adda\u00admen\u00adtal truths. Whether West\u00adern or East\u00adern, the Peren\u00adni\u00adal Truths are the same the world over and they will pro\u00advide com\u00adfort and guid\u00adance no mat\u00adter what is trou\u00adbling you&nbsp;today.<\/p>\n<p>This is the true mean\u00ading and mes\u00adsage of Mer\u00adcury ret\u00adro\u00adgrade in Sagit\u00adtar\u00adius; it is time to return to the bedrock of Truth found in all great teach\u00adings. Turn away from the noise and chat\u00adter, away from mere opin\u00adions and half-truths. Do not enter\u00adtain these nor pass them on. Your mind is your sacred tem\u00adple for under\u00adstand\u00ading, and your mind must be clear and not shad\u00adowed by&nbsp;fear.<\/p>\n<p>Return to the sources of Wis\u00addom, which you feel and know to be true because all these sacred sto\u00adries of spir\u00adit are there in your heart as they are writ\u00adten for you in the stars above&nbsp;too.<\/p>\n<p>May Her\u00admes show you the way out of the darkness.<\/p>\n<p>Let Mer\u00adcury ret\u00adro\u00adgrade release you from&nbsp;fear.<\/p>\n<p>With your Mind tru\u00adly open, and your heart full of&nbsp;Love.<\/p>\n<p>May you be wise as a ser\u00adpent, and gen\u00adtle as a&nbsp;dove.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peace of&nbsp;Mind What I like to call \u201cThe Dance of the Plan\u00adets\u201d, is cer\u00adtain\u00adly evi\u00addent today!
