MERCURY SPEAKS For Insight, Consciousness, and Philosophical Entertainment. Astrology is an ancient language that provides the capacity to see the wisdom and depth of the ages in each moment. It is a means to understand the nature and the cycles of the human experience. It is part teacher, part guide and part comedian. I've created 'Mercury Speaks' in the hope that this information may inspire you to find and hone your own very special lights. As we all need to find ways to be more loving, may we discover the art of living and what it means to truly be. ~ Michael Mercury June 29 to July 5, 2009 THE MERCURY MINUTE The Moon rules the emotions and tone of the day. For this reason, your awareness of its location can give you a better understanding of influences at play. The Planets signify the mythological opportunities for each day. Monday, June 29 The Moon is in Libra all day. The week begins with support for business and commerce. Be aware that communication is the key to understanding, and that all forms of dialogue are conditioned. Tension can often be a byproduct of growth; however you must embrace your transformations and be flexible with all that you experience. You cannot force excellence. All of life returns to the point of its origin. You are an expression of your Journey and your vehicle as a body of energy that interacts and reacts with the world around. You are the Journicle. Your relationship with the world translates to the relationship you have with yourself. Every moment is the beginning and the end that never ends. You're an expression of the alpha and omega.

(Read the signs of both your Sun and Ascendant.) CANCER (June 22-July 22) You feel a wave of regeneration washing over you this week, and it carries your awareness to a new level of intensity. This intense awareness shows you the way to a better understanding of yourself. Nurture all who are important to you and have clarity in what you convey to others. You feel a bit lethargic, but this too shall pass. You have come to a point in your life that has the feelings of a birth and death quality. Now is a time for you to take a further step by becoming what you have learned! Emotions run high and arguments may be thrown your way, but you don't have to play with negativity. Take time out for yourself. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You are at the beginning stages of a most welcomed adventure that can help you to understand your self. Your trek inward continues as the journey that helps you discover who you are and who you are not. A lesson for you is to understand your insecurity. Be prepared for a major decision that is supported by the force of creation. Relationships are the focus, so think before you speak, and then do so only if it is from the heart. Your words have substance and they guide you (and others) in the right direction. Know that the true joys of life are helping others and it's not always about you. Without them there is no you! The past comes to visit you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Open and honest communication is the best way to approach someone who is listening. A heartfelt conversation reminds you of the importance of individuals that you value and trust. Friends and family help you to reconnect with a part of yourself that you have lost touch with. A trip gives you a different perspective on who you are, and it shows you just how far you have come. It also illuminates just how significant you are to people in your life. Be the expression of love and joy, for that is truly who you are! To serve is the foundation of being alive and it truly is the essence of your sign. Food and sensual delights are the focus for you and enjoy. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) The mystery of life is quietly revealing its secrets to you. Learn to recognize that the known and the unknown are one! If you don't take care of yourself, then you can't expect to take care of anyone else. Find time to be alone and don't overload your schedule. The world survives without you, and your life is enhanced when you are centered within. Worrying solves nothing, and its destructiveness can only hurt you. The far better choice is to follow the path of love, for just as sure as worrying destroys, so it is that love restores. The Moon in your signs sets the week on the right foot, and find balance, as others in life are a bit out of touch with what is important. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) Short trips and fun continue to be the focus. Transformation is also in the forefront. It is the appropriate time for exercise and meditation, and if you eat sensibly and moderate your lifestyle, your health and sense of well-being show marked improvement. This does not mean, however, to play it safe in all aspects of life! For a healthier you is better able to take risks that help you to discover who you are. And by confronting new challenges you find yourself putting forth the best that you have to offer. Without a doubt, you are ready for the change that life is showing you. Do you see it? Make sure you do what you heart tells you, because it knows what is in your best interest. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Deep feelings arise, revealing emotional insights into the way you feel about someone. Work and health has been on your mind, and you are ready to make the changes you need? The world is waiting for you to express yourself, and your creativity provides the impetus! You need to overcome frustrations and delays, but a good attitude makes all the difference in the world. A financially conservative approach today ensures that you have funds available in the future for the transition that is waiting to surprise you. Relationships are going to be challenging, as you have to look at your actions and choices that are affecting others close to you. Work is an area that needs your attention; you can't take anything for granted. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) It's a new beginning, and you are surprised that so little effort can lead to such monumental and important personal changes. And though you want to move forward quickly, there is something telling you to slow down, gather your energy, and just enjoy the quality time that you want. If you find that romance is awaiting your decision, choose to rekindle the sparks of passion and love, and express yourself with words that have been silent too long. With Pluto in your sign for the first time in 248 years is going to change you like nothing else. Be prepared to transform yourself into a new person. Now is the beginning of your life changing in new direction and be patient for the transformation to take place. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) The unexpected happens, and much to your amazement it helps you to realize your dreams. With discipline, you can eliminate your work backlog and bring yourself current with your responsibilities. Someone you care about contacts you and suggests that you spend time together. As enticing as this is, the question is whether or not you can afford the time away from your busy schedule. Love is a great teacher and healer, and it comes in many forms. Synchronicity is the reminder that love is always supporting you. Transformation is a major focus as the summer begins. Travel may also become a factor that unexpectedly occurs much to your surprise. Friends are a major part of this weeks surprise and relationships are going to need some attention for keeping communication clear. PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20) This is an ideal time for travel and one of its beneficial effects is that it will center you. Work is demanding and you are looking forward to the challenge. You accomplish more when you do not waste time on unimportant matters. So to be successful, it is essential that you are clear as to what is important to you. This can be a fun time if you are able to keep your head out of the clouds and stay grounded. Romance is for those who are available and open, so leave the door ajar. And if you're already in a relationship, then what a perfect time to toss aside the restraints, and free yourself to romantically bond with the one you love. Education is an area that can help you get in touch with new growth. ARIES (Mar. 21-April 19) You feel that something inviting is going to happen, so go with the flow of life. And in addition to productivity, this has the added benefit of making you feel better. In general, you have a tendency to be on the edge, regardless of the situation, and this is often a result of your judgments about what you (erroneously) perceive to be true. You need to take the time to relax and to rid yourself of negative thoughts. After all, you are what you think, and if you can't stay positive in thought, then it is better not to think at all! But in so doing, keep a little bit of fun in mind, for you may be invited to a gathering where someone special awaits. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You can be charming, and laughter is your best medicine at this time. Laugh your blues away and you will find yourself on the road to a new adventure. If you're comfortable with the people you surround yourself with, and they bring out the best in you, and then consider yourself very lucky indeed. But if you're not pleased with the company you keep, then why continue to waste your time? Perhaps, however, the question is superfluous, as you may soon meet someone very special at a social function to which you are invited. Learn to communicate with others, rather than dictating to them, and most of all, learn to listen! Are you prepared for disappointment when something does not turn out as expected? GEMINI (May 21-June 21) You are on the verge of understanding yourself from a new and different point of view, and you find this a bit unnerving. Strive to eliminate the elements of your life that no longer serve you, and continue to expand your world by meeting new people. View your financial considerations with the sensibilities of the heartland: money is like water, and a drought is always looming. If you conserve your resources, you will be happier, wealthier, and wiser. By adding compassion to your way of life, you are that much closer to living the ideal that love is everything! Pay attention to your health and it will respond in kind. The past can have a way of coming back this week and for the next several weeks. Know that now is a good time for slowing down. Until next time, may you find love, balance and fun as you explore what it means to be living. - Michael Mercury Watch the Mercury Minute, every day on YouTube.
