Very good advice! Thanks, Elsa. This Mercury Retch has the Mercury/Neptune conjunction in my 3rd house squaring my natal Mercury/Mars . . . so it sounds like calling lots of “time outs” to check & double check would be a good idea for me!

Thanks for the advice Elsa: “never let anyone rush your game.” I need to remember that. I have Mercury conjunct Mars in Gemini!

That’s good, thanks Elsa.
I have Mercury square Mars so people tend to rush my game, I rush my own game, and so on. I’ll keep this is mind.

Thanks. That’s very apt. A good way to nutshell up retrograde Mercury and really handy to keep as a state of mind.

I’ve been irritated at myself because there’s certain opportunities I’ve missed during the mars retro but when I realized I passed the deadlines I found I wasn’t particularly upset- as if I had tricked and distracted myself out of attempting to do something I knew I shouldn’t be doing right now anyway. It’s an odd dynamic and confusing but I’m in a place where I need to make serious long term decisions for my life and the mercury’s flailing about because all the things logic comes up with feel wrong. And instinct is telling me to wait. I think.

It’s all kind of confusing. But I’m trying to learn how to trust serendipity and my own sense of forward motion and it’s good to recognize that that’s important information too. Which I sometimes forget until sometimes says it.

Would you say that not letting anyone rush your game is a Capricorn trait?

Elsa

Alma – No, but that’s a good assumption. I am going to write or do another video on this… tomorrow I hope.

“Never let anyone rush your game.”

Wow, that’s exactly what I needed to hear! Although I don’t know why I should be surprised. You always tell it like it is.
