Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landside,
No escape from reality
Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to
Me ~ Queen

Our trickster friend Mercury turns retrograde-o today and perhaps some are feeling it...though let me let you in on a little secret: unless Mercury is dominant in your chart (such as ruling your Ascendant, Moon or to a lesser degree your Sun) it doesn't have to be some dramatically calamitous unwiring as the pseudo spiritual communities lead you to believe. In fact it can create a lovely refresh of the intellect allowing thoughts to change and rewire the mind into unconventional greatness. Take it from me. I was born with this phenomenon and you're still reading this blog...so hey it ain't so bad, kid!

Ok so Mercury is the least of our problems earthling. As we ascend toward the full moon and the lunar eclipse at the end of this weekend we are jettisoning into the culmination of karma initiated almost 2 weeks ago with the new moon. The endings, reshuffles, surprises and unpredictability is hurtling us all towards the full moon in Vishaka. Moving from the Aries - Libra axis of me vs we, we transition into Taurus - Scorpio axis of mine vs yours. It takes true self worth this full moon to differentiate what is truly for you and what is only temporal gratification. A great exercise these coming days building up to the full moon is write down/get clear of what you desire (Taurus) and notice where you act against this, giving away your power to the wrong avenues (Scorpio).

This is the time in your life to walk the talk. Quit saying you want something yet acting opposite or even worse diagonally sidewards into confusion town. This is that moment in history if you use your full integrity of combined intention, word and action you can harvest the fruit that is rightfully yours. The only trick is you need to get SUPER clear on what is actually authentically your truth vs what others have pushed you into either by their own intentions, words or physical actions. If you feel like sharing your intention please leave it in the comments - if it's something that needs to be kept sacred until it eventuates honour that - but please dear ones let's polish those dreams so the stars can shine brighter on us this full moon. The glory is ours if we can hold our ground and hold our heads high.

Stay light,
Mark :)
