Since it’s been a longer spell than usual for the Galactic Times, let me fill you in on the goings on. Simply put, these times have been ultra busy - that should be no news to anyone. First and foremost, all the snags in the publishing process of Glimpses, my short story collection, finally resolved. They’re on the presses in perfected form, soon to be shipped. What’s a big whew!
Earlier this year I was contracted to write a relationship report for StellarSingles.com, a spiritually oriented dating sight. They wanted something wonderfully different and wildly unique. Since the centaurs Chiron and Chariklo, and Hylonome and Cyllarus offer positive soul driven relationship models, I wrote these into a let’s compare person A to person B type of report. And just for fun, I put in cosmic clues for every pattern so that even if an aspect is tense, it still has a chance of working favorably. Now, and at an introductory price until December 4th, you can order this report (25 to 30 pages) for only $21.99. Later, this report will be included in membership benefits on StellarSingles.com and soon available at tarot.com. You’ll love this report!! Order Now! It’s a good holiday gift idea and why not get through this holiday season with insights instead of...? You know how it is.
Now on to the stuff you really want to know. Like it does every 115.88 days, Mercury goes retrograde in Sagittarius come Sunday (depending upon where on the globe you roam). This time, he laughingly skips backward in Sagittarius, taunting you to remember where you put all the brilliant insights the recent black hole passages by this mental master. The week of the 21st, he’ll be agitating the insights received in the past week or so. With the entrenched fixed aspects still prevailing out there, everyone I know has been dealing with what appears to be a lot of immovable this and that. Perhaps the key to shifting things around might be hidden within a set of different insights, slight attitude shifts or a practical, out of the box approach - key word: practical. If you want to get other people on your team, they need real solutions that work to move the current mountains and molehills between here and there. Hype, fluff, hollow words and weak axioms only agitate those doing their best while standing the muck of overwhelm.
Neatly, Mars and Neptune recently squared off. They did so in aspect to the brightest object in our local universe and at the intersection between the Galactic Center and Super-Galactic Center. Sure, whatever you say, pal. Remember in the paragraph above you said don’t give out words that have no creme filling? Fair enuf. Mars means action. Neptune relates to vision. Reset your focus. Clean the windows inside and out in your vehicle. Make sure your computer screen remains free of static dust. Polish the window in your work space. Come on, how’s that going to help? That’s just more fluff.
So it seems, but you do engage in an act of clearing the path of sight. While doing these things pay attention to the ideas that Mercury reminds you that you forgot. If no ideas come to you while cleaning your line of sight, go to step two. Mars suggests pointy things; Neptune denotes magic things. Make a magic pointy thing. Think about it. How many people have a lucky pen? Then there’s the magic stick people now use to make numbers and names appear in PDA’s. Same thing. Somehow assigning a real object to the image of making clear points, aligning agendas and ensuring that no one misses out on the vision at hand fills in blurry spots with great lucidity.
While it seems a simple request, when doing a physical task remain aware of that task while tracking other dimensional realities. Try remembering that you navigate a lot of metal at a highly velocitized rate of speed down a hard concrete ribbon amongst other huge hunks of fast-moving metal while driving and contemplating how to move the mountain in front of you. Present tense attention and focus increases in importance as the issues pondered become more cosmic.
Now there’s probably still a mountain, or at least a serious hump of blockage over which you must haul your carcass. By now you have some new insights in your pocket. A refresh of the original objective tends to restore enthusiasm. Now comes the last part of the drill. The pattern between Saturn and Neptune builds in strength. You want to overcome the looming pile of task ahead of you? Go step by step. Attend to the step with the best of your present tense ability. Save your daydreaming for assigned periods of ponderous speculation or while watching inane television. It’s going to take a lot of work. Diligence, deliberateness, dedication and duration slowly move you toward the sugar plum destination. Few major visions occur in just a poof of a magic wand. But one day, after the clarity, mental originality, vision and effort amalgamate in alchemical fashion, suddenly, “Poof! There it is. Almost overnight.”
Since Mercury is in Sag, do your best to apply the “think before blurting,” “reread the e-mail before slapping your mouse,” modes of life. Keep your priorities straight. Avoid wayward, non-useful distractions until we inch our way to the Sun embracing the Great Attractor - can’t tell you about that now... that’s just a heads up that something cool comes to those tracking the insights now.
And since Mercury reverses course this weekend, you still have time to order and check out the Twin Stars relationship report. How cool is that? Yep, the GT’s will continue to be a little less frequent... that’s the trade off for keeping Weekly Wonders up and going as well as writing my weekly scopes for Media Village . I’ll be back soon, though. Feel free to patrol my website and find all the goodies in there.
