Mercury Enters Libra

1+1 = Done

Summer's official end is now, with school bells ringing and new deadlines looming. However, instead of diving deep into the doldrums, the universe is sweetly helping reduce this painful transition with Mercury in calming Libra at 1:38 am today until September 27^th. This means no need for concerns, as this time is when worry is just another 5-letter word. To make the most of this transit, follow these 5 basic rules:

1.     Relax. Libra is an air sign that moves life organically along at a moderate pace. There's no sense in rushing to get you where you’re going, because speed won’t matter now. Easy breezy thinking is a prerequisite for success. So, inhale and exhale.

2.     Cultural Stimulation. Ruled by Venus, Libra is in charge of culture and beauty. Anything from spending more afternoons at museums, getting tickets to a play or dating a musician will tune you into the power of art as muse.

3.     Team Up.

By nature of this partnership sign, best to bounce thoughts off another or work with someone on projects, because 2 heads will be luckier than 1 now.

4.     Manners Matter.

Elegance is a hallmark of the Librian way of life and playing fair and being kind is law, as karma will be fast to smack you back down now if you don’t.

5.     Demand Diplomacy

Being nice doesn’t mean being a pushover. Be willing to defend yourself and what you believe when necessary. Fairness will win out.

Lately, my faith in astrology has been deflating and I've been wondering if I am actually a high functioning crazy person. While I do totally stick to believing in the personality traits, I am not feeling the predictive side to it these days...and it's not like I don't know how it works. I know it's not about getting things on a silver platter, it's about working within a system of timing and bringing about the best results. While it's not 100%, to an extent I would of have thought with all the efforts I have put out so far, there would be something that would give...but NO!

Sure, I get that life is not all about rainbows and unicorns, with everything happening in the happiest way at the precise moment, but I have never gone this long without something new and exciting happening in certain areas in my life...and dang, this year has been no walk in the park!!! ...too many teasers, as in opportunities that get busted at the most exhausting times...Even today, with this so-anticipated Venus and Mars alignment in Scorpio hitting my natal moon to almost the exact degree, it was so much more filled with lacklusterness than lust that I didn't even have the energy to gossip about it--and that is coming from a Gemini rising!

Anywhoo, it's not like I've given up, yet...So, despite what might or might not be happening, I still see the validity in astrology, at the least as a universal schedule of assignments to take to task in some way or another, even if it brings no lucky breaks...because at the least, it can provoke thought, right? ...Ha ha, this was soo spoke like someone with Mercury that just entered her 12th house, the house of the subconscious, blind faith and victimization...

...So, to make this post not just about me whining, here is a fab movie to bring on that Mercury in Libra mellow, cool and peaceful vibe: Baraka... Watch it in the bathtub with treats and dim lights, just like I did. It'll totally do the trick.
