As Mercury Retrogrades through Cancer:

Andrew Smith – Agent EI

I am sure that you are eagerly looking forward to reading all the cautions

about signing documents; losing keys; communication mishaps and delays;

and technology getting even with us by frustrating and confusing us even

more than it does on any given ‘normal’ day as Mercury prepares for the

second of his three retrogrades in 2013 commencing on the 26th June and

ending on the 20th

July!!

But is the purpose of this cycle really to

frustrate and annoy us? Is it really all

about negative things happening? If so,

are the increase challenges during a

Mercury Retrograde cycle to do with

Mercury itself or the retrograde

phenomena. If it is to do with the latter,

then why don’t astrologers write more

frequently about the retrograde cycles

of the other planets in our solar system,

especially given the regularity to which

planets ‘reverse’. Pluto, for example,

spends up to 44% of the year

retrograde, so surely the internalisation

of your ability to transmutate is as

important as the internalisation of

thought?

Maybe our collective awareness of

Mercury’s inward sojourn has somethingto do with its ‘personal

correspondences’ as opposed to Pluto’s

‘transpersonal’ nature? Perhaps it is Mercury’s media and communications

correlations that we notice it more? Maybe it is because it is the third least

frequent planet to retrograde, after Venus and Mars and therefore its

impact is more pronounced? Maybe it is because it is the second fastest

travelling planet that astrologers use after the Moon, therefore its

correspondences are more noted? Who know? The one thing is clear

though, the silly season is upon us!

Rather than focusing on events that could happen to you, I would like to

explain what is actually taking place in consciousness during a retrograde

period, so that you can understand what process is invoked during a

Mercury Retrograde cycle. Unlike my other articles, this narrative is devoid

of creative interpretation and is largely technical in nature.

The Mercurial Planetary Archetype

The Mercurial planetary archetype symbolises all the facets of life

experience that enables you to communicate, process, receive and

assimilate information, as seen in the bubble map below (figure 2). It

reflects a naturally proactive busy-ness and therefore symbolically

indicates the manner in which you rationally think and exchange

information with the world around you, so you can make sense of the

world!

Figure 2 Mercury Archetype

All modes of communication fall under the symbolism of Mercury; not just

verbal discourse, but non-verbal signs and significations as well. The

essence of Mercury, however, resides not in the particular language system

but rather in the impulse to communicate, through whatever method. For

this reason, Mercury also reflects the learning of technique (a sort of

language system), through which skills may be expressed (a form of

communication). An example might be a carpenter who has mastered the

“language” of carpentry: using various tools (its alphabet) he expresses

himself (communicates) through the making of a table (his statement;

discourse). His orderly, logical approach, based upon learned skills,

techniques and the careful observation of data (e.g., measurement of

width, height, volume of wood, etc.), also involves the essential MercurySite Search..

principle of assessing data (measurements and assessments gained

through the handling of materials) and expressing ideas (his design or

blueprint).

The placement of Mercury in your birth chart indicates the particular style

of communication in which you excel and through which you experience

your greatest proficiency in communicating. It reveals how you think,

process, assess, acknowledge, learn, speak, write and study. How and

what you perceive is l inked to the mode and element in which Mercury is

placed, so too the way in which you filter the information collected from

the outer world. Mercury plays a big role in what we call interesting and itdescribes the extent in which we are able to assimilate information and

learn.

By and large we tend to view Mercury in terms of its fast orbital speed –

quick, sharp and incisive. However this is not strictly speaking true. There

are times wherein our thought process is more reflective and internal and

there are those who are born without a strong desire to externalise their

thought process, preferring to listen to their vibrant inner voice.

Mercury Retrograde Cycle

The term retrograde essentially means backwards, or inwards and

therefore during such a period of time our thought process is naturally

slowed, internalised and becomes more reflective, a natural contradiction

to the normal hustle and bustle of everyday life. Life coaches and

psychologists tend to encourage their clients to take a reflective break

every couple of hours, so that the mind and concentration can remain sharp

as it would appear to be impossible to keep going without an occasional

pause.

Aside from our own individual inner clock that indicates when we should

take time off , there is also a generic time frame where there the Mind of

the Solar System also needs to rest or ‘pause’. This arises three times a

year, as Mercury retrogrades. The replenishment that naturally takes place

when anyone takes time for themselves arises when Mercury re-joins the

Sun and fuses with the Light Source at the mid-point of the retrograde

cycle. The fusion of these two planetary archetypes symbolises thereplenishment, renewal and the ultimate re-birthing of Mind, which is really

what is at the heart of this cycle.

Mercury’s reverse motion is part of a cyclical continuum of retrogradations

that take place every 116 days or so, largely due to the fact that Mercury is

never too far away from the Sun and therefore ‘dances’ frequently around

our Life Sustainer. Alternating in intervals between two different types of

conjunction of 6 and 10 weeks respectively, Mercury makes his greatest

elongation above the horizon in the Western evening sky about a week

before turning retrograde. As he disappears into the beams of the Sun,

disappearing from view, Mercury eventually passes over the face of the

Sun (or at very least returns to the same zodiacal degree of the Sun)

synergising with it as it forms an inferior conjunction. Mercury then moves

ahead of the Sun and eventually makes his first visual appearance (heliacal

rising) in the Eastern morning sky. This is followed by another turn of

direction (this time direct), and as his apparent velocity matches that of

the Sun some days after this turning Mercury is once again at his furthest

distance from the Sun. This is when he appears at his highest point above

the horizon in the morning skies.

Mercury retrograde in Cancer June-July 2013

The retrograde period commences in the afternoon of the 26th June and

lasts until the early evening of the 20th July (local time in Dublin), but

there is a l e a d i n and l e a d o u t time that extends the process from the 9th

June through to the 3rdAugust. The pre-shadow phase, which is the

time prior to the retrograde wherein Mercury passes the degree of its direct

station, is a time of increasing reflection and one when creative and right

brained transformation techniques are heightened (images, dance, writing,

music and other divinatory/ intuitive processes). As Mercury makes its

greatest elongation in the western sky on the 12st June, it gives us

breathing space to really see what thought is singularly driving our internal

process. Remember that thought is at the root of all action, so this date is

a powerful one to really understand whether the thoughts that are fueling

our reality are really ours, or stem from some external factor (conditioning,

fear, media etc.)

As the 12th June passes, the Mind becomes increasingly reflective heading

towards the Mercury storm! The storm periods happen just around the time

that Mercury turns direction, (commencing when it is moving less than 40′

(minutes of arc) per day). This is the time when astrologers traditionally

suggest to clients NOT to sign anything, since there is virtually no motion

in the process of trading. However in terms of spiritual process, this is a

phenomenal time to really reflect and meditate, as your consciousness is

more likely to be quieter and more receptive to the inner voice.

This commences on the summer’s solstice, the 21st June and last up until

the 30th June, as Mercury slows to a crawl then appears to stand still on

the 26th June before starting moving “backwards” very slowly until the 30th

June, when he is increasingly speeding up as he heads towards his eagerly

anticipated coupling with the Sun, on the 9th July.

The celestial fertilisation of the Divine Mind with the One Source takes

place on the 9th July, and this is a time appropriate for the insemination of

any thought that you want to fuel your life for the next several months

(until the October/ November Retrogradation). This can be done by

consciously committing your images and ideas to paper and/or taking the

first step in manifesting a project.

From the 1st July through to the 16th July Mercury, whilst still retrograde is

moving at something approaching its normal speed, but in the wrong

direction. This is a time to really put energy and time into the development

of the commitment you have made on the 9th July. By the 16th July, we

move into a pre-direct storm, as Mercury starts to slow again, as it

approaches the time when it changes direction. This turning takes place on

the 20th July and the sensitive climate lasts until the 25th July. We are in aSite Search..Like

“Yang” time now, and this is all about the dissemination of the ideas that

you have seeded on the 9th

July. As Mercury’s approaches its greatest

elongation in the eastern morning sky on the 30th

July, you are in a strong

time frame to delineating a plan of action, make concrete and conclusive

decisions, signs papers, advertising, act upon your germinated thoughts

etc. The task during the post-shadow period, from the 25th

July is to “get

it out there” by the end of this process on the 3rd

August.

phase. It’s great to see someone else writing and posting about

this. I wish more of the world would pay attention to MR and

Moon Void of Course as well. I think there would be a whole lot

more understanding of how we do things, if people would just

open their minds to the possibilities of these cycles.
