…Spirit is not in need of ambivolent wishy washies…

oh, DUH, besides the fact that this is Mercury retrograde!

At 07:18 UT (Universal Time), on Wednesday, September 24th, 2008, Mercury the cosmic trickster turns retrograde in Libra, the sign of the Scales, sending communications, travel, appointments, mail and the www into a general snarlup! This awkward period begins a few days before the actual turning point (as Mercury slows) and lasts for three weeks or so, until October 15, just after the Full Moon in Aries, when the Winged Messenger reaches his direct station. At this time he halts and begins his return to direct motion through the zodiac…

As a rule, retrograde planets presage a period of seemingly inevitable or fated events that relate to their sphere of influence. They present us with a series of events over which we seem to have little or no control, relating especially to the sign in which the retrogradation occurs. For example, Mercury retrograde in Scorpio (intensity; sexuality) presents quite different sets of circumstances from those generated when it retrogrades into Libra (relationships; harmony; æsthetics)…

Mercury retrograde gives rise to personal misunderstandings; flawed, disrupted, or delayed communications, negotiations and trade; glitches and breakdowns with phones, computers, cars, buses, and trains. And all of these problems usually arise because some crucial piece of information, or component, has gone astray or awry…

Mercury retro in Libra can disturb the mental balance, making us more than usually indecisive. Virtue and morality will be under pressure from both sides, combining jealousy and possessiveness with the agonies of doubt and indecision! Sharing ideas, especially those connected with moneymaking and other tangible rewards will present a higher risk. Attempts to maintain objectivity and an unbiased approach are likely to be thwarted and coloured by emotion…

I took this from this site, only because it was the first to pop up on a google search, but you get the general picture.

The good news… Merc goes direct… Oct 15! Yay! Perhaps no one will be more relieved than dear Blossom…

A random thought… since I know certain Pleiadians have a sense of humor. There are a lot of wagers being made on this whole event. If the ship shows up at the last second before the international date line turns to 10/15… 😕 😆

Take time to breath and meditate and have a sound look inside yourself. Something has changed an intense light portal has opened. I see it as a new sun slightly yellow, a powerful energy that can take you anywhere. We waited for lightships to appear in the skies and we saw nothing…. This reminds me of a chapter in the Lotus Sutra’s buddhist teachings called the Phantom city:”The members of the group were all weary and disheartened and said to their leader “We are all exhausted with fatigue and wish at this point to turn around and go back.” The leader thought to himself, these people are truly pitiful! Why do they wish to turn back and miss the many rare treasures ahead? At that time he thought of an expedient means, deciding to exercise his transcendental powers. He conjured up a great walled city and adorned its mansions, surrounding them with gardens and groves, channels of flowing water, ponds and lakes, with double gates and tall towers and pavilions, all filled with men and women. As soon as he had created this illusion, he comforted the group, saying, “Have no fear – you can enter this city and each amuse himself as he pleases.” When the people had entered the city, they were all overjoyed in heart. All had a feeling of ease and tranquility, telling themselves that they had been saved. When the leader knew they were rested, he called them together and announced, “Now you must push forward – this is nohing more than a phantom city. I saw that you were weary and exhausted and wanted to turn back in mid-journey. Therefore I used the power of expedient means to conjure up this city for the moment. Now you must press forward diligently so that together you may reach the place where the treasure is.” I too do likewise, acting as leader to all beings. I see the seekers of the way growing disheartened in mid-journey, unable to pass over the steep road of birth and death and earthly desires, and therefore I use the power of expedient means and preach nirvana to provide them with rest, saying, “Your sufferings are extinguished, you have carried out all there is to be done.” When I know they have reached nirvana and all have attained the stage of arhat, then I call the great assembly together and preach the true Law for them.”
