Aligned for Mercury Retrograde

 
Revelation is at hand: The kind that is specifically useful to you. It could come through a book, a poem, or an amazing synchronicity. Someone’s  hair is on fire. 

Right out of the gate, Mercury in Sagittarius encounters Neptune; the great transcendent deceiver and obfuscator or reality. This world is but a dream to Neptune. Now is a time for dreaming and drifting, not for making decisions or thinking you corner the market on truth.

 
Mercury joins up with the energies of the recent New Moon. If we can know something about the mind of the world from the winged messenger (Mercury)  as it enters Sagittarius, we can try to think wisely. We are inundated with new and fascinating neurological insights about the brain; it’s plastic, it reacts this way and that, it is more miraculous than ever we thought. You have a brain and your mind can train it one way or another. Learn something new.  

Where does knowing begin? In the mind or in the guts? Today our deepest understandings of this world, our world, comes from below and within. Things are what they are. This is the starting point for  true understanding.
