This is going to be an interesting month it seems. From September 7th we are entering into a period where the planet Mercury is turning retrograde. This means that all the qualities normally associated with this planet, communication for example, will in effect go backwards.
So this month, and for part of early October, while you go about your daily business, perhaps become observant regarding how this might effect your interactions with colleagues, family and friends. The main characteristics it seems, is that communications in all its forms tend to become difficult. Computers, cars and phones tend to breakdown or act up. Delays can occur.
Conversations can be taken out of context, appointments can be broken or moved or even forgotten about. In general it seems, it is a good time to review, re-check, research and re-schedule.
So how can you use this information in your daily life?
Observe what areas of your life this change in energy could end up influencing.
Avoid reacting as much as possible - stop, think and then act.
Prepare for it ahead of time by backing up your PC, keeping your charger handy or a set of jump leads in your car.
Be kind to yourself and others when communicating.
Re-check bookings and appointments
Review or refresh conversations to ensure the important details have been heard.
Overall this retrograde phase is set to last until the end of September. With most people stretched as it is this year, and additional stresses of either commuting under difficult circumstances or paying out money for school when things are tight, it is easy enough for people to react strongly.
Hopefully, this bit of information can at least give an insight into how sometimes the worlds energy can be influencing things further, and might provide you with the tools to be able to deal with this month that little bit easier! If used wisely the energy can be particularly beneficial for completing projects and gaining some quality time alone for introspection, thus helping you move forward positively!
