Neutral Day

A neutral day is one in which there is little energy to create forward momentum for new projects to get off the ground. This happens when the moon is void-of-course for the entire day, but also when there is little interaction between the planets. Today the moon is void until 10:51 PM eastern time. Delay important new initiatives and decisions. Instead use this day to take care of routine matters or to nurture your creative side. www.astroinsights.com

Mercury Retrograde - What Does it Mean?

About three times a year the planet Mercury slows in orbit and assumes apparent retrograde motion. In other words, it seems to go backwards. As a result, many things associated with Mercury also suffer setbacks, delays, cancellations or revisions. Since Mercury has rulership over all forms of communication, written and oral -- this is not the time to sign contracts, purchase or sale agreements, leases or anything else of a legal nature because there will be hidden complications. Mercury's province extends to communications equipment and hardware which often malfunctions or completely breaks down during this cycle. It’s best to delay the purchase or installation of new equipment of any kind, until Mercury is direct. Since Mercury is the planet associated with thought, decisions, and all things analytical, it’s no wonder mistakes occur while Mercury appears to be going backward. Indecision, miscommunication, faulty facts or reversal of fortune are likely during this cycle. Moreover, information can be inaccurate or incomplete necessitating further investigation before a conclusion can be reached. Hence, more delays. So it’s no wonder astrologers tell their clients to delay final decisions and sign nothing during the retrograde cycle. If it is necessary to make a commitment or final decision during this cycle, it will be revisited at a later date. It is, however, a good time to re-consider all your options pertaining to the matter at hand but wait until Mercury is direct to make a final decision. Current cycle: Mercury Rx 1/5/2015 – turns Direct 1/25/2015 4:50 PM eastern time

Challenging Day

The moon turns void-of-course mid-day and remains so until tomorrow morning but with challenging alignments including Venus square Neptune and Sun square Uranus, complicated by Mercury turning retrograde, it is a confusing time with mixed signals from those we may be interacting with. Expect the unexpected and be prepared to shift gears when necessary. As with all Mercury retrograde cycles, it is best to delay legal actions, signing of documents and all things of a binding nature until Mercury turns direct the end of January. www.astroinsights.com

Monday, January 4, 2016

Variable Day

The moon has moved into the secretive sign of Scorpio while Mercury is stationing preparing to retrograde tomorrow at 8:00 AM eastern time. The next three weeks offers a time to review and reorganize but not to finalize matters. Delay the signing of important documents and agreements. If you must move forward during the retrograde cycle be prepared for some complications along the way. Delays are likely but once Mercury turns direct, any problems that may have arisen can be readdressed. www.astroinsights.com

Saturday, January 2, 2016

Neutral Day

The moon is void-of-course until tomorrow mid-day so delay new initiatives and important decisions for the time being. Meanwhile, Mars moves into Scorpio tomorrow morning and Mercury slows to retrograde on Tuesday, January 5th. Complications are likely to arise in the next three weeks with communications, travel arrangements and legal agreements. Try to get all matters finalized quickly and avoid entering into binding contracts until Mercury turns direct. This is an appropriate time to review and make improvements where needed. www.astroinsights.com
