Mercury Stations Direct - 21 Cancer - July 28, 2006
Mercury is turning direct today -- 8:40 pm EST -- and boy, do I feel grateful.
The impact of a planet is always strong during a station -- that is, when it apparently changes direction in the sky, either backwards (retrograde) or forwards (direct) . Yesterday, I misread one email, which led to an awkward IM with the sender, and I also failed to communicate something important via email, which led to the other party taking action when he didn't have to.
The result is that I feel increased stress from two these blunders. I wrote earlier about problems with my Palm organizer. I took that in stride, but when it comes to interpersonal matters, Mercury retrograde gets messier. My Palm doesn't have feelings. With my Moon in Aquarius, I probably take comfort from the fact that gadgets don't have emotions, but I also have three Pisces planets in (or near) the seventh house, so I'm also highly sensitive to other people.
So I'll take a whacked-out computer over problems with colleagues, anyday. (Don't quote me on that when my PC doesn't start up!)
