Mercury RetrogradeBy Drew Lawrence - Vedic Astrological

Consultantdrewjlawrence (AT) hotmail (DOT) comwww.drewlawrence.comDear Friends and

Clients,It is that time once again. Mercury will travel retrograde or backwards

in motion from July 24.05 until August 16.05. This affects everyone and

everything on the planet. This period lasts about three weeks and occurs about

3 times a year. It may have more specific indications with reference to your

birth chart, but we will endeavor to give the more general effects below.Since

Mercury is the planet that represents communication, a retrograde Mercury

usually brings problems and difficulties with communications, automobiles and

vehicles, phone systems, travel, transportation, lost luggage, delayed or

cancelled flights, mail delivery, computers, internet connections, information

technology,

and contractual agreements. It can cause delays, setbacks and last-minute

changes in plans and arrangements as well as breakdowns of machinery and

equipment. The difficulties are for the most part minor but irritating in

nature.People become more introspective when Mercury is Rx. The thought process

has a greater inward focus. People tend to be more thoughtful, contemplative,

reflective and meditative. Self-examination is the order of the day. This is

the time when the subconscious mind will come to the forefront and the

conscious mind will retreat. Knowledge tends to be absorbed as opposed to

learned during Rx Mercury. It is a far better time to sort things through in

your own mind with your "Self" rather than having that overdue "talk" with your

partner or friend since that may lead to miscommunication and not provide the

sought-after resolution.People become slower and more deliberate in their

response patterns which is

generally a good thing as long as patience is also applied. But this can

sometimes create problems in getting your point across. That's why this is not

the best time to make important decisions or enter into negotiations or the

signing of contracts, agreements or mortgages. It would be better to lure

business clients away from the bargaining table and out to a leisurely lunch.

Look for that closing handshake after August 16.05.We realize business must

continue and life still goes on but really important matters that can be

postponed should be until after August 16.05. This is no time to start a

business or begin a major project. If it doesn't have to get there tomorrow and

it doesn't have to be said today, save it. Have that little "heart-to-heart"

with your own heart.For those of you who like to chant mantras or prayers of

protection, then you may want to chant the following mantra to help overcome

the adverse effects

of Mercury Retrograde. Repeat it a minimum of seven times per day."Om shree

budhaaya namaha."CLIENT COMMENTS ABOUT RETROGRADE MERCURY"I read your email

with great interest about Mercury going retrograde. This is because the last

two times Mercury went retrograde, I signed two contracts which turned into big

problems for me.Although I knew Mercury was retrograde, I thought, "What could

go wrong? I'm going to be selling a piece of land and it's pretty cut and dry.

I sign the papers. They get the land, I get the money and everyone goes home.

And Mercury is retrograde for them too, so it should even out.It didn't work

that way. At the settlement, there arose a dispute over taxes and I had to

leave $27,000 in escrow at the table. That was about a year ago and I'm still

waiting to resolve the matter and get my money back."Businessman"My publisher

told me that the all computers at the

press went on the blink the very day Mercury turned retrograde which he said he

almost couldn't believe because it was too much out of an astrological text

book."Writer"Thank you for all the info about Mercury Retrograde. I have just

returned from South Africa without my luggage which arrived four days later.

Interesting!"Nurse"Since Mercury went retrograde, I've been dealing with

internal and external hacker issues on my web sites, server issues, mail server

issues, major web site issues, firewall issues, cancelled insurance issues,

merchant account issues, landlord issues, etc., etc., etc. The list goes on and

on. When we get one issue buttoned down, two more pop up. My programmers,

techies and staff are all somewhat exhausted because of all the stuff that is

getting thrown at us."Businessman"I think I'm finally finishing up with all the

spastic deals from the Mercury retrograde period! Only one

fell out. The others were pure hell but they closed!"Real Estate Agent"Thanks

for the email regarding the retrograde Mercury. My patients were all four times

more intense that whole period!"Psychologist"The computer blew up yesterday and

I lost my complete hard drive. The ironblew up. The electric gates went on the

blink and the switch for all the lights in the kitchen broke. After all this, I

blew up!"HomemakerPLEASE SEND US YOUR COMMENTS FROM YOUR EXPERIENCES DURING
