Mercury Retrograde Periods in 2008
Although not quite as popular as Sun sign astrology, “Mercury Retrograde” has certainly become a buzzwordor buzz phrasethese days.
What is Mercury Retrograde? Three, and sometimes four, times a year, the planet Mercury appears to be moving backwards in the sky for a period of approximately 3 weeks. “Appears” is the key word here, because, technically speaking, no planet actually moves backwards in their orbits around the Sun. In fact, they don’t even slow down. Retrograde-station-direct cycles are essentially illusions that result from our point of view from Earth, simply because the Earth is also orbiting the Sun at a different speed than the other planets. Mercury turns retrograde more frequently than any other planet. It can never be more than 28 degrees from the Sun, and whenever it reaches its furthest distance from the Sun, it changes direction.
As the planet of communication, Mercury retrograde tends to breed a certain level of confusion. Mercury rules our “lower” mindhow we perceive and interpret information that we receive from our environment, and how we relay that information to others. Mercury has rulership over such things as speaking, negotiating, buying and selling, listening, formal contracts, documents, travel, the mail and shipping, and so forth. All of these areas of life are affected when Mercury is functioning in a sluggish state. Decision-making is challenged during Mercury retrograde. Needless to say, it is not advised to sign contracts, engage in important decision-making, or launch a new business. Delays and challenges are more probable with Mercury retrograde. This period is best used for re-organizing and reflecting.
During these periods, it’s best to check and double-check your work, emails, and paperwork. Watch what you say, because it may not come out, or be received, the way you intended. Try to be understanding if you receive remarks that don’t go over well. Double-check that the person who uttered those words really meant it the way you thought they did! Asking “are you sure you meant to say that?” might help. Get in touch with yourself during this periodit’s an excellent cycle for discovering new ways of looking at life and at yourself. It’s also an ideal cycle in which to discover new ways of communicating your ideas and thoughts.

Outer Planet Configurations of Interest in 2008
Outer Planet Highlights in 2008 – Time Line
21 Jan Jupiter trine Saturn 04:14 am EST Tran-Tran 0737′
You are in a roughly yearlong period in which the world at large is, in the deepest sense of the word, coasting. There is a great faith that God is in his Heaven and all is right with the world, which is, as often as not, totally unfounded, a disillusionment often met the following year. But, for the moment, in the background all appears to be working smoothly, both economically and morally. This makes for profitable enough short-term actions, as long as you can pull out quickly. The real personal bonanza may be had by searching out the coming shift that changes everything and putting all your financial and moral assets on it.
25 Jan Pluto enters Capricorn 11:27 pm EST Tran-Tran 0000′
Sixteen years begins of a culture value shift toward getting business done as if it were a mission. It will create vast wealth, as it will have little to hold it back morally – but the generation spawned by this period will have to redesign the great structures so made in a deconstruction of what went before. Like when cement skyscrapers were first built – they were touted to last longer than the pyramids, but a generation later they began to fall to the wrecking ball.
18 Mar Jupiter sesquiquadrate Saturn 05:44 am EST Tran-Tran 1824′
28 Mar Jupiter sextile Uranus 07:09 pm EST Tran-Tran 1947′
It’s a good time to invest in mutual discovery, where what you stumble on somehow perfectly dovetails with what just fell into your partner’s lap. You don’t need to push or pursue the farout to go really way into yourselves, and you’ll probably even have a little help from your friends, because right about now they’re probably doing it, too. This can apply to the boardroom or the bedroom equally, as subtle inspiration and small “aha!” revelations snowball to give everyone a totally new view on an old subject and reinvigorate flagging energies and interests. The key to success: Be aboveboard, don’t go overboard. Share what’s given, expect the same.

There is a great faith that God is in his Heaven and all is right with the world, which is, as often as not, totally unfounded, a disillusionment often met the following year. But, for the moment, in the background all appears to be working smoothly, both economically and morally. This makes for profitable enough short-term actions, as long as you can pull out quickly. The real personal bonanza may be had by searching out the coming shift that changes everything and putting all your financial and moral assets on it.

This rare (once in 45 years) aspect provides a background of a year or so when new advances in theoretical science occur which take a longtime proving, thanks to an often intransigent scientific establishment. Relativity theory and chaos theory are two good examples; both took years to become thoroughly accepted and a part of the general consciousness. If you happen to know what they are, it probably profits you little, except you can tell your children you were there first, when they finally get hip to it. Nevertheless, it’s worth looking around for, as the foundations for another wave of the future are being laid at this very time, no small thing.

It’s a good time to invest in mutual discovery, where what you stumble on somehow perfectly dovetails with what just fell into your partner’s lap. You don’t need to push or pursue the farout to go really way into yourselves, and you’ll probably even have a little help from your friends, because right about now they’re probably doing it, too. This can apply to the boardroom or the bedroom equally, as subtle inspiration and small “aha!” revelations snowball to give everyone a totally new view on an old subject and reinvigorate flagging energies and interests. The key to success: Be aboveboard, don’t go overboard. Share what’s given, expect the same.

You are in a roughly yearlong period in which the world at large is, in the deepest sense of the word, coasting. There is a great faith that God is in his Heaven and all is right with the world, which is, as often as not, totally unfounded, a disillusionment often met the following year. But, for the moment, in the background all appears to be working smoothly, both economically and morally. This makes for profitable enough short-term actions, as long as you can pull out quickly. The real personal bonanza may be had by searching out the coming shift that changes everything and putting all your financial and moral assets on it.

Sixteen years begins of a culture value shift toward getting business done as if it were a mission. It will create vast wealth, as it will have little to hold it back morally – but the generation spawned by this period will have to redesign the great structures so made in a deconstruction of what went before. Like when cement skyscrapers were first built – they were touted to last longer than the pyramids, but a generation later they began to fall to the wrecking ball.
