My Mercury Retrograde Diary: Day 2

( in response to: My Mercury Retrograde Diary: Day 1)

Last night I made a funny typo on facebook....
Remember how in day 1 I said I was checking my voicemail constantly and yadayada... to get a job I wanted?

Well I have also been checking my email every hour too(and I don't have a smart phone) for inquiries into the job I'm lookng for.

Well last night.  I saw that I had a bunch of spam.  Usaully when I see that there is over 100 spam emails, I just go and delete it without looking.
I was about to delete it.  That's just once click right?  But then I got this feeling that I was acting quick, and remebered I that I should be carefull durring this Mercury retrograde. Especially when it comes to emails, and phone calls.
Well, I opened it up, and smothered under all that junk was an email inquiring about the job I was looking for.  How strange.  I don't understand how it went into the spam section. Good then I checked it.
Well it turns out that I don't want to accept what they offered.  I'm worth more than that!

The rest of this day I wrote a lot. Fiction.  It's been a while. I used to write a lot of stories and poems all the time, but haven't in a long time.  I somehow found the enthusiasm to do it.  That's what most of my day was.  Reading and writing at home. Though, I did go out earlier.  I took a very long walk.  I haven't even taken a long walk in a long time.
So reading, writing and walking were a big part of my day.  Seems pretty Mercurial to me.

My Mercury Retrograde Diary: Day 1

I thought it would be interesting to keep a diary specifically focusing on this transit!

So Mercury going retrograde started at 13 degrees Leo which is in my fourth house.  My fourth house starts at 3 degrees Leo so most of this transit will be in my fourth house except for the last 3 days, it will be traveling back into my third house.

Well here is what happened starting last night as it was 10:16pm when Mercury started going retrograde:

I went to work at the office around 7:30pm.  I didn't have to be there so late, it really was my choice.  I could have worked at home, but I just didn't feel like being home. Then around 4:30 in the morning I left, got on my bicycle and started to ride to someone's house that I take care of sometimes while they are away on vacation.  I have rode my bike there many times which is the same route that the bus goes and I have taken the bus there over a hundred times.

As I got into the neighborhood I was riding for a few minutes and felt like I passed the turn I was supposed to take.  Everything looked so unfamiliar.  I actually turned around and backtracked for a couple of minutes until I realized that I didn't go far enough in the first place, so I turned back around.  I didn't remember it being this long down the same street, I just kept on riding, waiting for that one street to come up to turn left on.
Again, I thought that I passed it, but knew I didn't.  I found the right street. It was so strange how mixed up I felt about directions that should be very familiar to me.

I got to the house and everything was great. Later, I wanted to go to the store. As I was putting my shoes on I ended up looking at the bottom of my right shoe.  These shoes are fairly new, but I was surprised to see a chunk in one spot on the sole of this right shoe was worn away!  I knew it was because my bike's right peddle is missing and only has that narrow bar to put my foot on but I didn't know it was eating into my shoe....

As I rode home my right foot started to ache.  Looks like I may need new shoes. Too bad it's just the right one that is messed up.  And yes, this is a wake up call, I should fix that pedal.  I've been riding around with one pedal for a year now.  Ha ha, I just got so used to it, I hardly know the difference.

So tonight, I checked my voice-mail messages. (I have been checking it like every 2 hours for the last 2 days, being obsessed with getting a call for a job that I want) Every time I checked it though, it would say you have no new messages, which was a bummer to me.  But tonight, just an hour ago, I check the voicemail and it says I have a new message.  I was happy to hear that it was someone about a job that I have been waiting for.  I press the option to hear the date and time they called.

It says they called YESTERDAY at 5pm!!!!  I must have check my voicemail like a dozen times since yesterday.  I would have called back right away.
Well, I called them back and it went to their voicemail.  I hope my chance hasn't been blown from the delay in my response.  Wasn't my fault that my voicemail lied to me! lol

Oh, Mercury Retrograde!  Look what you did!  ha ha.

Jupiter and Sun Conjunct, Transits my Ascendant

So Yesterday, May 14th the Sun was at 23 degrees Taurus which is the degree and sign of my ascendant. Also Jupiter was at this very same degree. The Sun does this once a year, but Jupiter does this only once every 12 years. So for these two planets to be conjunct here is like a big deal. The days and perhaps months leading up to this I in-visioned that I would receive some sort of glory in my life. I don't even think I'm exaggerating here, I admit! lol But yesterday was a regular-old day for me. It was a day like it has been these past couple of weeks. I slept in ans stayed at home doing odd things like spending too much time on youtube and slowly cleaning my house that I got so messy. You might even say that I have been lazy. Though that is not true because five days ago I went on a nearly 30 kilometer spontaneous bike ride and the day before I did a lot of work in the garden. I was out in the Sun for hours using lots of muscle power to dig and transplant onions. I guess the Sun and Jupiter hanging out in Earth sign Taurus may have something to do with it. yes, that's got to be it. Also, Taurus is a bit of a home body so there you have it: the reason why I am playing in the dirt and then staying at home. Another interesting thing is that my home Sun is in Virgo which is also an Earth sign and my home Jupiter is in Capricorn, which is the other of the 3 Earth signs. So what I am doing now is trying to understand this current Jupiter transiting my ascendant. I figure that since this is a very big and slow moving planet that perhaps the full effect won't br realized right away. After all, it is in Taurus and Taurus is patient.

Is this Planet Vulcan?

I took this picture on Mother's day around 4:30 PM. I was wondering if this is planet Vulcan.  I recently read about this in Linda Goodman's "Love Signs".


It's suppose to be the "true ruler" of Virgo, as Virgo shares planet Mercury with Gemini currently.  Vulcan is supposed to be discovered by now, but it may not be discovered until the Sun is in Virgo.  Well, for now, I'll just say that yes, I shot a photo of Vulcan!

Well, I thought I'd just share this!
