Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Astrology And Mercury Retrograde - Just An additional Of Many Possible Afflictions

By William Hardy


Mercury is retrograde May 26th to June 19th, 2008 inside the sign of Gemini. Mercury retrograde, which occurs a few times each year, is one of the most talked about astrological events, in particular by astrology hobbyists and novices.



Although Mercury doesn't very do a 180 and backtrack during a retrograde, Mercury seems to reverse direction for much less than a month. The illusion of Mercury retrograde is as a result of the orbit of Earth in connection to Mercury's orbit. After retrograde, it goes "direct," when it seems to turn back close to and go inside correct direction, continuing to progress through the astrological signs (e.g., Aries, Taurus, Gemini, etc.).

Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune all retrograde as well. At least one of these planets are retrograding at any given time and also the additional the world inside Sun, the longer it retrogrades (e.g., Neptune for more than 155 days).

Astrologically, all planets and also the Sun and Moon is also classified as masculine or feminine, nocturnal or diurnal, or hard or rewarding. But Mercury is an oddity as it can also be either in each case depending on which world it accompanies, which makes it the hermaphrodite from the solar system.

Depending on Mercury's condition and to which heavenly body or bodies it is connected, it's related towards following: communication, conversation, thievery, deception, mercurial disposition, messages, information, intellectual pursuits, and education.

Mercury retrograde is notoriously recognized for this kind of items as communication screw-ups and misunderstandings, personal computer as well as other technology glitches, travel delays, scheduling conflicts, machinery break-downs, and problems with new project launches.

Mercury retrograde doesn't make this kind of issues happen, it's just symbolic of these things. As above, so below.

Mercury retrogrades are known being excellent times to go a lot more deeply into existing projects, re-examine already observed prospects, re-do things, and finish things already in motion. It is a time to slow down a bit and be a lot more cautious.

Although Mercury retrograde (or any retrograde for the matter) is an affliction, it's only one of many feasible indicators.

In our view, too significantly emphasis is placed on Mercury retrograde and it's usually blamed for circumstances after it shouldn't be, exactly where a dozen or far more other astrological or numerological considerations are far more closely related to the situation.

Also, your natal astrological indications may suggest that you have an easier time with Mercury retrogrades than average. For instance, if Mercury isn't a major player in your natal charts, it's less of the concern for you.

How Mercury retrograde symbolically affects you also depends on in which inside your natal charts the modern day transiting Mercury retrograde falls. If it falls in a weak property for example, and is unrelated to the matter at hand, it could be even additional of a non-issue for you.

Here's our view on Mercury Retrograde timing based on our observations simply because the 1980s: up to 17-28 days before Mercury goes retrograde is also "worse" (communication issues, etc.) than the genuine retrograde period. Also, the second half on the real Mercury retrograde period usually runs much more smoothly than the very first half.
