The practice of loving kindness makes everything we do easier. If we practice it long enough it becomes second nature. May our thoughts be guided thus.
This year’s mercury retrogrades take us from water to air. They each start out in a water sign and end up in an air sign. 2013 was a year of intense projections, fear of the future, deep insights and most of all strong feelings. In 2014 Mercury encourages us to THINK about what we feel. To do the research and make sure that our feelings are not just projections.
This retrograde period is from February 6, until February 28th with the shadow period extending the influence from January 23rd until March 20th.
Mercury goes retrograde in the sign of Pisces, near to a conjunction with Neptune. We are meant to dream deeply in our waking or sleeping states. It is quite possible that ‘life is but a dream’. Awakenings happen around Valentine’s Day when Mercury, still retrograde re-enters Aquarius: Time to get rational about our dreams; to do the research. This could mean any kind of research: Into our own past or perhaps the drug or food supplement we are taking. Most importantly we need not to believe everything we hear. Because it is a retrograde time the suggestion is to be calm and simply follow the threads that seem to lead you to the information you may need. If change is required it will come more easily after Mercury goes direct.

RE: Mercury is retrograde Feb 6-28th 2014
Yes. I know you have started to lurk around my end of the hologram in this holographic universe. I heard you stifle a giggle when I got my computer tuned up in anticipation of the next retrograde and while the screen on my laptop is currently blue and waiting for more of an angel to arrive… I remain composed.
In Chinese astrology 2014 is the year of the Wood Horse. We are all prone to impulsive action and I feel that too as my imagination is going wild with new possibilities from craft ideas, programs to launch to the joy and anticipation of the next new thing to try. FYI… I have it contained! Send me all the Pinterest Pins you want. I am resolved NOT to start anything new and exciting this February. No you can’t trick me. I won’t do it. Instead the joke is on you for I have cleverly ALREADY started an entire huge inventory of projects that call for the closure energy of Mercury Retrograde. I look forward to putting you to work helping me to finish off all these lovely projects. There are several partially started tea cozies to go with long completed quilts, the covered boxes project, and the documentation project over at the Repatterning Practitioners Association. YUP all started. No time for your tricks here!
I have started a list of spring cleaning tasks to kick in a little early thanks to you. Please don’t add to this list by going around breaking things in my sphere. I have enough to do with repairing the lamp (the one I recovered several retrogrades ago), the perpetual decluttering and closet organizing projects. Still I look forward to the retrogrades precisely to take time to put things back in order.
However, you may serendipitously make it possible to meet up with old friends, recover money owing or just find it, and let that treasured watch I lost 3 years ago tumble out of a cupboard when least expected. If any of those things happen I will smile and know you are at least being useful.
You may well ask “how is it we can’t ‘get’ to Carolyn like we used to? Hah! Julie Simmons and I together with a large holographic field of participants do a resonance repatterning session routinely three times a year. We align for the best of every Mercury Retrograde.
See you around!

Aligned for Mercury Retrograde 
Broadcasting Tomorrow at 3:30PM (ish) at Spreecast
Throwing all Mercury retrograde cautions to the wind, Julie and I are once again trying a new (for us) service to talk about the Aligned for Mercury Retrograde program. We’ve done this before with the usual trickster snags underfoot. This time however, I got educated and prepared for this new service well before the retrograde started.
You are invited to attend and bring any questions you may have! This is a video streaming event where the audience can take part by leaving their questions in a chat box. You will see Julie, Joan and I live as we talk about the Mercury Retrograde phenomena, what exactly IS Resonance Repatterning and answer any questions.
We will record and share this link afterwards.
Mercury goes retrograde on February 6th and Julie and I will do our healing session that day to align the registered group for getting the most out of this period. To find out more about all of that please join us tomorrow February 4th at 3:30 PM. Here is the direct link:
