Now I’m not normally one for planets and their effect on the everyday goings on but recent things have made me re-think my position slightly.
Mercury went into Retrograde last month and came out of it yesterday. Now when Mercury is in Retrograde things tend to be a bit nuts and that fits the last month of my life perfectly.
Today, with the New Moon starting to cancel out some of Retrograde Mercury’s nuttiness, the things that have been up in the air and the main source of craziness in my life have finally taken a massive step towards stability – and in a good way.
Now I’ve always taken the cycles of the Moon seriously, even before I “became” a practicing pagan (heathen actually but hey, who’s keeping record?), and the cycles of the Sun have always played their part in things, with the Solstices being a major part of my discovery of paganism.
But this is the first time I have ever noticed the direct correlation to the behaviour of one of the other celestial bodies with the goings on in my day to day life.
That is not to say that it has never happened before, after all if I have not been looking how will I know if it has happened before.
It also does not rule out the possibility of coincidence.
Then again my dealing with the Wyrd has shown me, on more than one occasion, that there is rarely such a thing as coincidence in a random sense.
(For the record, I view coincidence as being the term to be used when the greater pattern of the Wyrd is beyond your comprehension and therefore the occurance in question has no apparent explanation).
So what does it mean?
Honestly? I can’t say I’m 100% sure.
What I will say it has opened my mind a little more in a new direction and that can never be a bad thing.
