Whoa…you better Slow Down…No Really, you better slow down and LISTEN!
When Mercury encounters Mars, your Mind is on fire…but your patience is at an ebb and you are likely to make mistakes…and you certainly might offend (or be offended).
Sure, it feels fine to be oh so sharp, quick and alert…but you really need to remember that the most important part of communication is to be a good (and patient) listener. So turn that excitement back upon yourself and consider what you really know versus what is merely conjecture or opinion…
Mercury is skipping through Gemini now and delighting in all the diversity, stimulation and excitement that this sign brings. Your Mind is seeking for the farther reaches, pushing beyond the accepted frontiers…just for the fun of it…Seeing reality in all its wondrous, distracting multiplicities…making discoveries…but the problem here is that you might draw conclusions too quickly and so fall into error…
Mars in Virgo brings a sharp reminder that all those curious diversions, all those observations, data points, those myriad facets or points of view…they all need to be brought down to Earth, into some meaningful ordering and purposefulness. Mars is the Shaper here, reminding Mercury that ingenuity, adaptability and enthusiasm in your mind is necessary to problem solving…but too much brings about just as many new problems to solve…You can move too fast from your data points to “truth”, not taking the time to critique and analyze what is really…Real…
Mars is reminding Mercury, that sometimes (oftentimes) simpler is better…
Although, it is true, your Gemini spirit of curiosity is the key to your Intelligence…
It needs to be matched to the Virgo ideal of order, so you can achieve the greater Good…
You need to remember that what you really seek…Where Wisdom Lies…
Is to found in that delicate balance…where you experience…
Peace of Mind!
