Regarding Mercury Retrograde… And A Uranus Transit Ending Oppression
Astrology in real life
Regarding Mercury retrograde, pal and astrologer, Claire-France Perez left her impression and delineation of the situation on Everything Disposited By Mercury Rx
, her conclusion was this:
“My best advice is gather all your evidence, then decide in July.”
I am going to take her advice regarding this blog because as she’s mentioned privately, besides the fact a decision about writing made while Mercury retrograde would most definitely have to be reconsidered, it is a given that not all the information has been presented. But since I have been covering this, I want to present another angle.
Some months ago, I referred to the soldier and I as having the energy of freed slaves (another one of Claire-France’s observations) and she is quite correct. I am in the midst of a Uranus transit which promises change and freedom and I am on the verge of enjoying both.
See I had my first baby and then I had my second. By the time my second baby went to school my first baby fell ill and consequently I have been inordinately restricted.
My kids are school age and by all rights they should be in school full-time (leaving my days free) but this has never been the case. Matter of fact, my daughter did not make it to even one full day of school for the last 3 years so just think about how you are going to hold a job with that going on? The school would call me to pick her up on average, 3 times a week and that was if she was able to go there at all so if you think about this (along with the single parent factor) you can see I have had very few options and so this blog (and the one before it) were born. And no wonder I pleaded with people to link to it back when I did a couple years ago, it is because it’s been my only hope.
But now… well in August when my son returns to school, I will for the first time in 14 years have my days free, fairly reliably so just think about that. Am I not being released? I am a slave being freed and it just seems prudent I take a good look around before I head off in a direction because guess what?
When I do head in that direction, it is going to be balls to the wall. Are you kidding me? Someone’s lettin’ the dog out, see? A highly, HIGHLY energetic dog and I am so grateful, there are no words.
Have you ever been released after a long period of oppression?

Thanks, Kingsley, I just don’t know. I really need more information but I am sure it will come. To be candid, I expect change but I don’t know what that means. I can change my attitude and have a completely different life. But I do have astrology and I think a shift is a given.
Well you know, Mercury went rx with Neptune (and Chiron if you use it). There is a Mars/South Node conjunction in Leo (17th) before Mercury turns direct later this month (20th). So I guess a lot of info is still unearthed for now. I am holding my breath as to what the next full moon will bring – and may choke before that but this is another story entirely!! 
Sounds like you are needing a change of some kind and still looking around for what that is. I always thought that “change” had to be a drastic affair, that my life needed to be doing something completely different. In that way I have changed my careers three or four times to feel the change somehow. I was getting away from the problem by externalizing things rather than changing within the system of what I was doing. I don’t regret the changes I have made, however see how changes can be implemented with less severity these days.

I was “released” after two weeks in a hospital ICU, with doctors who had no idea of what was wrong with me. I was released to another hospital, a 2-hour drive away. I refused to take an ambulence and instead took the free-est car ride of my life. I’ll never forget how blue the sky was and how bright the trees on that particular day. Fresh air never tasted so good! I felt a similar freedom when I met this scoprio guy that I fell in love with, even though nothing came of it. And now, two years after the beginning of my Pluto square natal Pluto and in the midst of a Uranian transit to my sun, and after LOTS of therapy and body work, I await the freedom I have been longing for for way too long now. I’m about to give up hope that it will ever arrive. But if I cannot be free in this life, I will still always be joyous for those who do attain this– in moments or for a lifetime. I find freed slaves of all kind the most inspiring pple on this earth.
Yes and I can still remember how that tastes and feels. When you are sailing, sometimes all that is needed are small adjustments. These can set you off in a new direction and this can be quite exhilarating
Information now, decision July, free time starting August? Sounds pretty opportune, no matter what the decision is. I really do think the Universe looks after us. <3
I like freed slaves, too, doublepisces. I have pluto square pluto now. I think I’m getting free from the old fantasies that kept me whirling (but with little to show for it). Now I’m getting down to business – staying focused, slow-going, but with things “limited” I think I’ll actually see the results–so it’s like straight ahead path not zig-zag, zig-zag, as it has been.
That’s how I’m getting free.
By the way, Elsa, I love this line: “I can change my attitude and have a completely different life.”
Lately, I’ve been reading about mediation and love. And if I can wake up every day and be full of joy, full of love, and move that ego of mine more to the back of things (not front and center) – wow, how would that like not change my life? (And I can do it all sitting in one place 
I haven’t been able to figure out what to do since I got released. After ten years I had long since given up my dreams and goals, so I still don’t know what to do. Other than go on trips, anyway (which I am doing).
I am in the middle of my Uranus opposition and boy is it a challenge. I can’t wait to see what transformation will bring but it is gritty teeth time right now.
yes.
