Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn Out of the Shadows – but when?
My friend frequently talks about Mercury “still being in its shadow” . What does that mean?
Mercury goes retrograde (an apparent backward motion) some
four times a year. These periods are when things concerning communications of
any sort can go wrong, mislaid, confusing or at best reviewed. Its shadow is
the period when, after it has turned direct (so things should get better), it
has yet to return to the degree of the zodiac where it first went retrograde.
At that point, life should normalise.
This feature is always noted in the fabulous Astromoon Diary.
I decided to also look at Jupiter and Saturn who are currently or recently been retrograde and causing many people problems – especially if your Sun or Ascendant in your natal chart is Sagittarius, Pisces, Capricorn or
Aquarius.
Although I feel more sorry for those affected by Mercury –
Gemini and Virgo influenced people. Perhaps they get used to it.
When it is all going to change? Approximate dates are used as I have discovered that my ephemeris occasionally differs from my computer program!
