How's Mercury Retrograde Treating You

Mercury went retrograde on March 3oth.   This has actually been a very smooth Mercury retrograde so far! My phone has been working fine, my transportation is nothing to complain about, and I'm on the internet right now, and it's all going smoothly.

The one big thing that I have noticed though that is planet Mercury retrograde related is that I have been going back in the past to retrieve things that I have forgotten about.  I somehow now have the time to finish projects that I started a long time ago or even start projects that were only an idea a long time ago.  

Mercury retrograde is the time to stop and back track before you proceed any further without checking off your list that you made so many yesterdays ago.

Sometimes this is forced upon people by things like, appointments being canceled at the last minute, the cell phone call gets disconnected, their tire goes flat, there computer crashes without warning, they didn't get that email....etc. 

Situations like these will make it seem like a challenge to move forward.  Instead they have to turn back to figure things out and find a different route.
So if you are having one of those "bad" Mercury Retrogrades, don't worry, as sometimes it's just meant to be to forget your keys or you coffee mug inside the store. There's a reason for everything!

Taurus the Gardener

The Moon is in Taurus.  
I wasn't remembering this when I went into the dollar store and got excited about how I could buy 3 packages of parsley seeds for just one dollar.  My first instinct was to go for the flower seeds, but my Virgo Earth Sun sign kicked in and forced me to choose the more practical and healthy choice.  

However, this Moon is urging me to go back to the store to get some pretty flower seeds to plant first thing in the morning.
I really feel like planting something! 

This feeling is stronger than last months Taurus Moon sign because for one thing, it is now spring.  Of course when it is spring, that is the time to plant things and the moon now being in this lovely Earth sign of Taurus which is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty and lovely surroundings, then how could anyone not Act now under this Ambitious Aries Sun Shine to go with the feeling of the Taurus Moon to make something Pretty come up from the Earth?
