YAHOO! Mercury Went Direct - (Followed By Full Moon Eclipse in Virgo - The "Serve or Suffer Axis!")
Posted by It's In The Stars at 2/24/2008 2:06 AM and is filed under uncategorized 
Well, are you smiling? Has your mind gotten clearer this week? Notice how things are moving a little smoother, a little faster -- a little sharper focus coming into view?
Well, Yes, ladies and gents, Mercury is back on track, and moving forward!
Of course, you know that Mercury never REALLY goes backwards during his retrograde,
but from Earth's point of view, which means us Human Beings,
he really does appear to be going backwards, then stands still, and goes forward again.
Here is the Happy Messenger of the Gods running on his merry way! Sexy, isn't he?
Now, even though things SEEM to be picking up after Mercury "changed course" on Monday, February 18th,
Just when we were getting comfortable, WHAM!
The Full Moon took place on Wednesday night, February 20th.
Don't you wish the planets would just leave us alone? Maybe give us a little vacation down here?
NAAAAHHH.. It Ain't gonna happen!
AND, since THIS Full Moon also included a very powerful TOTAL ECLIPSE, it was an awesome sight to watch.
(I was blessed to watch it on a very crystal clear sky night in Nashville, TN.)
The Moon was in the sign of Virgo, and Saturn is also in Virgo, so it was a spectacular sight to see the two of them dancing together in the sky.
For those who missed it --
The Moon started to disappear, and when the Eclipse was Complete, the moon turned BLOOD RED.
It stayed like that for an hour - and then the light slowly, slowly started to come back.
I actually broke down and cried when it disappeared, like some primal fear was awakened.
"What if she doesn't come back?" I worried. Even though my Modern Mind told me she would.
I felt what the ancient cultures must have felt - like we lost our "Mother" temporarily.
The Moon rules the tides of the earth, the fluids of our body, nurturing, the breasts, the stomach, and our emotional natures, so it felt like for that one hour when she was gone, our emotions were in the dark as well.
To add to this, The FULL MOON was in the Sign of Virgo! The Sun had just gone into the sign of Pisces, so a Full Moon is when the Moon is in the opposite sign from the Sun!
Virgo is also seen as the Sign of The Mother. The Harvest or Earth Mother. The Dry, Desert Mother. Not like the Watery Cancer - Home Nurturer Mother.
Sometimes, Virgo can be very demure and self-conscious.
Virgo people are born late August - through mid-September - Autumn - Apple Picking time.
Virgo really likes order and cleanliness, and is very attentive to details of life. She can be meticulous and neat, but can also be very critical.
Virgo cares about the underdog and small pets.
She is also the sign related to all kinds of Service - which sometimes manifests in the professions of Nursing, and Office Work. She really prefers behind the scenes work, rather than being on stage, like Leo! (who was last month's Full Moon - GRRR or PURR - Remember?)
So, did you remember Saturn is in Virgo for 2 years? See my January Blogs!
Yes, Saturn will be in Virgo for 2 years.
And Saturn has to do with restriction, limitation, facing reality, growing up - but I also consider it the planet of Wisdom.
So, seeing Saturn next to the Full Moon made it feel even more like my Emotions were being crushed.
Of course, even though Virgo can be shy, she can also be sexy.
Since Virgo is the sign of Health and Service, I hear Saturn saying,
"Take care of your health - Find some way in which you can serve and offer yourself to the world in this life."
One of the ways I like to serve is give people access to a very orderly meditation tool, called a Labyrinth.
I just added another photo montage of the Labyrinth in Burns, TN - this is the Labyrinth which inspired and helped design the labyrinth on my property.
Since I am selling my home in Donelson (along with my Labyrinth), it's nice to be able to move to another Labyrinth, and call that "home" for a year, while I travel around giving talks, workshops, and private readings. If you have not seen a labyrinth, please check out this link to the Photo Montage I put together for the labryinth in Burns, TN.

And if you have not seen MY labyrinth yet, please visit my website.
Take the next two weeks easy - go slowly, (Saturn) and do not choose to suffer in this illusion of the world any longer!
More will Be Revealed!
