Mercury Retrograde What does it mean and how does it impact you? – from Karyl Jackson
Posted on October 12, 2012
MERCURY RETROGRADE: The
purpose of Mercury retrograde is to review and revise our life and our
connection with reality. The timing of this universe is geared toward
the Sun as it moves through the zodiac. Mercury has an orbit that at
times gets ahead of the Sun allowing us to look into the future toward
new and innovative ideas. However, we cannot continue in that vein until
we come back to the present designated by the Sun and put our new ideas
into manifestation. During the time that Mercury jumps ahead, we
ultimately have to bring the ideas back into the present to test and
evaluate to see how they fit into our life. As Mercury retrogrades back
into the present, the connection with the Sun happens as we test drive
our ideas and re-align with reality and the natural timing of the
universe.
Mercury itself rules how we think, we will be adjusting everything
related to thoughts, concepts, ideas, and communication, especially how
technology and material elements play a part in the physical
manifestation of ideas. When Mercury retrogrades, we find that many
parts of our life are being revised. Often these revisions can be a
surprise or throw us back a step. However, these revisions which occur
during a Mercury retrograde, are a “course correction” and provide a
stop gap measure until we can review situations. During this time of
revision, change is compounded and confusion is created by our reactions
to the ever-changing situations. Thus anything started during this time
will ultimately be taken back or even revised further, making for a
high-frustration time. This will be especially true with changing our
minds, reviewing new ideas and our communication being improved and
honed so not to be mis-understood.
The best mode to be in during a Mercury retrograde is one of
“non-reaction”, and with earth signs being impacted, physical
environment will be changing continually during a Mercury retrograde.
Treat the time period as a time of gathering information, yet because
the information will be in constant change it would be like trying to
comb your hair in a wind storm. Best to wait until the changes stop
before attempting to make things orderly. Therefore, just let the winds
of situations blow around you without reacting. Once Mercury turns
direct, take a look at the information that is still around at that time
and go about putting everything in order, while maintaining the fine
art of flexibility.
Mercury retrogrades have a cycle**
in which the retrogrades have an exactness of covering the same signs,
the same degrees and approximately on the same calendar days. This
exactness is seldom thought about Mercury retrograde, with the seemingly
chaotic and confusing situations we experience during the retrogrades.
The exact Mercury retrogrades we will experience in 2012 were the exact
same signs, same degrees and approximately the same calendar days of
1933. This cycle** is seldom talked about in the astrology world, but is
the cause of major course corrections for humanity. We can look back at
history of 1933 to see the impact of Mercury retrogrades covering the
same time frames, the same signs and the same degrees. We are coming to
an important time as was experienced in 1933. For instance, the
President of the U.S. in 1933 was Herbert Hoover, who had a birthday of
August 10th, and the U.S. President in 2012 is Barack Obama, born August
4th, both having Sun in Leo. Few people are old enough to recount the
transition of that time, but it becomes history repeating itself to give
us a chance to grow as humanity, as a society and to make a difference.
The Planet of Mars follows this same cycle and the sequence of Mars
combining with Mercury’s influence of ideas and attitudes and Mars
brings these ideas and attitudes into action. The phrase “thoughts
become things” certainly brings home the combined energy of these two
planetary connections.
This is especially true in 2012 as
Mercury turns retrograde in the last quarter of the year on November 6th
and will turn direct on November 26th at 18 Scorpio. The fact that Sun
sign of Barack Obama is Leo as was Herbert Hoover’s, the upcoming
Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius moving back into Scorpio creates a
major series of changes and shifts in his direction. There will also be
major elements that change the view of the deeper side of the core self
and the motives, ethics and values that each person brings to
situations. The time of the US Presidential Election occurs on November
6th, the very day that Mercury turns retrograde. The importance of this
time can also be seen in similarities related to issues of the
transitions from 1933 to 1934 as Mercury was retrograde during the same
time and in the same sign and even the details of the same degrees. To
read more; Mercury Retrograde OnLine News has a special Election section, to review the aspects impacting each presidential candidate.
The changes that occurred back in
the days of Herbert Hoover can also be seen with 1933 being a year of
“dust bowls” and here we are in 2012 looking at the same issues. These
and other issues are setting the stage for the important Mercury
retrograde cycle that is also relevant to similarities in 1933, 1934 and
1935, Uranus is square to Pluto, which occurred at the same time, and
which is now in 2012, 2013, 2014. It is important to understand that the
cosmic clock has the timing similarities that we see in the outside
world. Few realize the importance of correlating the statistics with
events in the outside world to the cosmic clock of the magnetic pull of
planetary movements. To understand more, look to the Tectonic Business

illustrate the Mercury Retrograde process. Additionally, it is utilized
to track the series of events in your personal life that are the focus
of the changes during Mercury retrograde.
MERCURY RETROGRADE 2012: The
adjustments of Mercury retrograde typically occur three times a year,
giving 2012 a dynamic start. The Mercury retrogrades during 2012 are in
fire signs, bringing the spark forward from the power of feelings, as
Mercury retrogrades back into water signs to connect with our passion,
emotional commitment and our true beliefs. The adjustments that occur
during Mercury retrograde typically have a theme that occurs all year
long, shown by the elements of the signs affected. The Mercury
retrogrades that occur in 2012 provide the opportunities for us to make
adjustments in the practical aspects of our life from the information
brought to us through the Mercury retrograde in fire signs; Aries, Leo
and Sagittarius (occurring in that order). Decisions about our goals and
aspirations will be the focus during the Mercury retrogrades of 2012 as
change, breakthrough and freedom allows our feelilngs to break free
from the restrictions of the past. Because we are making decisions to
bring forward the visionary awareness into our new journey, new
endeavors, new goals, the events during the Mercury retrograde time
frames help us to veer away from the past emotional dramas and take bold
steps out of the old situations to move into our new future. These
adjustments will be very necessary as they allow us to make major
changes, emphasizing our bold and innovative choices assigned to the
fire signs of the retrogrades.
March/April 2012: Mercury is retrograding from fiery
Aries back into sensitive, emotional and intuitive Pisces. The
direction of Aries is powered by the spiritual essence of Pisces.
Mercury retrograde in March/April becomes the cosmic course correction
that is prompted from the alignment of the spiritual essence that charts
the outer direction that will begin to unfold. In 2012 the adjustments
that are slated to occur during the retrogrades are in fire signs, with
the Mercury retrograde in March/April becomes the powerful transition
and course correction that shifts situations with the winds of changing,
blowing us all into new directions. Uranus will connect with the
Mercury retrograde events during March and April, emphasizing the
spontaneous and sudden changes that will set the pace for 2012′s major
course corrections. Mars turns retrograde early in the year, emphasizing
the Virgo aspects of accountability, which will activate the changes
bringing a heightened level of activity and change into the month.
July/August 2012: In the July/August Mercury
retrograde, the fiery energy of Leo activates the winds of change
created by Uranus in fiery Aries. These two fiery signs give us events
and circumstances that blast us into many new directions. With the
changes created in this FIVE year, we will find that our life has
dramatically changed and Mercury retrograde in Leo creates the dynamic
emphasis of change that this year is destined to provide.
November/December 2012: The November Mercury
retrograde gives our goals as aspirations a deeper perspective through
Scorpio being activated during this process. The Scorpio aspect of inner
depth as shown by our inner connection to the higher awareness, will
revise our directions, goals and sense of purpose. Issues of
transparency showing the Scorpio inner aspects of motives, ethics,
values and intentions become the major area of focus during this time.

elements as well as the Sagittarius factors of setting goals and
directions according to the inner core essence. Motives, ethics and
values become the issues as we are on the threshold of major change and
transition regarding our direction, beliefs and purpose. The road that
we have been on for five years, since 2008 now requires that we make
choices and decisions. The climb to the summit had ended but now we must
choose the directions we need to go, to pursue the spiritual journey,
purpose and pathway for 2012. This Mercury retrograde is setting the
stage from the incredible climb since 2008, to now make choices of the
path to pursue that takes us into our true purpose. All of the
challenges, difficulties and accomplishments can now become part of our
shift into a new world. 2012 is a universal FIVE year (in numerology
terms) which represents CHANGE, BREAKTHROUGH AND FREEDOM. You will need
to be ready to break free from the past and move into new directions,
shifting your goals, location and purpose. The day before Mercury turns
retrograde, the planet of Uranus turns retrograde, to begin the changes
that will come with the changing winds of Uranus. It is time to break
free from the past situations in which we have been diligently working
since 2008. It is now time to let go of the challenging climb and to
instead look to the new directions pulling us. New avenues come into
view and pull us toward our creative expression. We have set a new pace
for 2012, now it is time to heed the call.
