\""mars<\/a>When Mercury is retrograde<\/strong>, we are told what to do<\/em> in terms of what NOT to do<\/em>. Don’t buy a new computer. Don’t sign a contract. Your flight gets delayed. You wander the lonely airport halls in your bereft heels. Emails get sent to the wrong recipients. Why oh why did you send your hunky co-worker that love letter. You meant to save it in draft only.<\/p>\n

We make more mistakes than usual. We make misunderstanding<\/em>.<\/p>\n

One of the trickiest parts of THIS Mercury retrograde period<\/strong> is that it happens in the sign of Gemini! See, Mercury “rules” Gemini thus we just can’t seem to make ourselves understood these days and it, well, it hurts.<\/p>\n

In other words, please do not expect any straight talk until Mercury goes direct again on July 1st.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mercury retrograde time is also the time of the RE<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Review. Renew. Reassess. Resume. Repeat. Reaffirm. Reiterate. Redo<\/em>. \u00a0People or projects from the past come back. Come back to life.<\/p>\n

Honestly, I don’t think you need to worry but yes it will be helpful if you adjust your assumptions of what can and cannot be said, heard, and understood at this time.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

ARE YOU HEARING ME? You could whisper, you could scream, you could say it in EVERY POSSIBLE WAY and still\u2026 you may not get through.<\/p>\n

But that’s okay. It’s temporary.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m going to draw two cards for you now. Two cards of advice for Mercury retrograde in Gemini<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

WOW TAROT THIS IS INTERESTING:<\/p>\n

At first we see Justice,<\/strong> a Major Arcana card. And then the Nine of Cups<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

These are two cards divergent in tone to say the least.<\/p>\n

Justice is about, well, Justice. Justice is served.<\/strong> Getting what you deserve. As you can see, Justice is not blindfolded, and her scale is perfectly level. It’s not about winners and losers here. It’s about righting the wrongs. I think this is fascinating actually because this card is about clear thinking, clear seeing, and we’re talking about Mercury retrograde.<\/strong><\/p>\n

NOW IS THE TIME, my friends, now is the time for Justice to be done. And once Justice is done? You’ll have your Nine of Cups<\/strong>, your wish come true, your celebration, a little drinkie on the house.<\/p>\n

The thing that’s got me puzzled though is this question: why NOW? Why Justice now? You’ve been wanting it for so long and it’s eluded you. What has changed?<\/p>\n

We see the Knight of Cups<\/strong> (yes, sometimes I can’t stop at two cards). The FEELING has changed,<\/em> says this Knight. One might even say he’s trying to bribe the judge, offering her a fist of flowers \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

In either case, here’s the wisdom: through Mercury retrograde you actually can see MORE clearly than before<\/strong>. I know that may sound counter intuitive to some, but the very scrambling of the messages becomes a kind of\u2026 wiping off of the glass.<\/p>\n

Extra credit: notice the Knight’s red and white flowers are the same as the ones in the Justice card. You may need to click on the picture for the full effect.<\/p>\n

Love,
\nAliza<\/p>\n
