    About this ebook

    Now with an updated list of Mercury Retrogrades from 2020 through 2050!

    Every astrological symbol represents both positive and challenging energies, just as all experience can be perceived simplistically as "good" or "bad", depending on our level of awareness. Author and Astrology teacher Diane Ronngren asks us to consider that each of the astrological symbols represents an 'energy coin' available to us to use as we choose in order to benefit our own personal growth.

    Mercury Retrograde periods of time have become known for the tangled communication and disruptive energy that we experience in the course of our daily lives. Many areas of life are possible areas of interest/concern when Mercury is Retrograde.Think about all of the various ways we communicate, connect, and share information with one another: email, cellphone, facebook, texting, twitter, etc., etc. We get into our cars, take the bus or the train, or book a flight (or a cruise) in order to get from one place to another--that's us commuting so that we can connect and share time/space/ideas with others. The flow of business can be affected in myriad ways, as can any of the systems of our bodies and the work of medical and health care providers.

    If you experience challenges in any of the above areas, these represent examples of one side of the Mercury Retrograde energy coin. Let's look at what the benefits might be--let's take advantage of this powerful energy in a really good way! This ebook explores exciting possibilities for everyone to benefit during the course of this transit. Since Mercury is Retrograde more than 19% of the time, it can be helpful to know the times to be prepared to deal with any challenges, and be ready to discover ways to have fun with your transit! (Includes dates of Mercury Retrograde transits from 2020 through 2050.)

      INTRODUCTION

      Often we start learning astrology by studying books that describe meanings of the Zodiac signs, the houses of the chart, and planetary influences. We compare what we know about ourselves with the meanings outlined in the books we read. Then we study Aspects, House Placements, Rulerships, Hemispheres, and Quadrant emphasis. We learn to synthesize several of the meanings and understand how complicated it is to express in words how an individual might experience the synergy represented by the symbols we are trying to comprehend.

      As we become more fluent in the language of astrology, we learn from the literature and from our teachers to analyze how people have experienced or expressed the energy of their natal charts by studying many examples. We gain personal insight into the potential expression of each astrological indicator. We build our perception of how certain planetary/house/aspect combinations may express themselves in a life. We explore how personalities develop and the more esoteric aspects of consciousness. We study Planetary Cycles, Transits, Progressions and become familiar with concepts like time, flow, opportunity, and personal choice. We become curious about prediction.

      For me, the word prediction carries a connotation of fatalistic acceptance. As one who firmly believes in the unique ability each of us has to exercise free will and make choices about how we encounter reality, I approach the art of looking into the future
