Mercury Wreaks Havoc On Moves Causes Accidents and Near Death Experiences For Some

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

Mercury Retrograde: Beating A Dead Horse


The Following Stories Are True, Occurring During The Shadow Period of The Mercury Retrograde

Case # One:

My daughter's lease was up at her first apartment December 31st. She had decided to move closer to Denver and share a two-bedroom apartment with a fellow culinary student - a girlfriend of two years. The two young women got along great in college. 

Even though great care was taken to make the move before Mercury went into Retrograde, the shadow cast almost two weeks prior to December 19th created issues with communication that created upsets for all involved.

Before the move was complete my daughter was beginning to feel she had made a terrible mistake. During the move, she discovered her friend wasn't independent fiscally or emotionally. Boundaries were crossed by adults that interfered and wouldn't take no for an answer.  

Lesson Learned: Don't move during a Mercury Retrograde or even during its shadow. Arguments and misunderstandings can easily occur during a Mercury Retrograde and even during the shadow period prior to and after. Be careful with your communications with loved ones during the next three weeks. Try to be crystal clear and honest about your feelings. Hiding how you feel could bite you in the butt later.



3 Ways To Prevent Mercury Retrograde From Ruining Your Christmas

Case # Two: 

My neighbor's 21-year-old daughter was traveling back home from college in Sacramento, California on Thursday, December 16th. The day before, her car was broken into and her wallet stolen. Perhaps the break-in was an act that was to slow down her return home. She pushed on regardless of the foreshadowing.

Once her window was repaired she made the five-hour trip back home for Christmas break. Less than seventy miles from home, she hit a puddle and hydroplaned spinning twice across both the southbound lanes crossing into the northbound lanes, spinning twice more, gripping the steering wheel tightly with her eyes closed; finally crashing head-on into a concrete wall. Her airbag deployed and she narrowly escaped with her life.  

I said prayers of gratitude for this young girl's life. Unfortunately, she thinks her angels were late. She has totally missed the gift; her face was spared as were her arms, legs and back. She had no broken bones, no contusions. Even the police were confused as how this accident happened. It was as if she was drunk but she had nothing to drink. 

I will add the caveat that my neighbor tends to worry about her daughter having an accident driving back from Sacramento. I have explained that worry puts energy on a target she doesn't want to draw to her. Did her worry about her daughter attract the accident? 

Lesson Learned: Don't drive during inclement weather if you can avoid it, especially during a Mercury Retrograde. Travel on the next best weather day to be safe.

You could argue that these types of things could happen at any time. Yes, that is true. The point being to take extra care while driving, avoid travel to new places if you can, or beginning an engagement or marriage during a Mercury Retrograde. 

When does this Mercury Retrograde end? January 8th, 2017.

3 Amazing Ways To Use Mercury Retrograde Energy To Find And Keep Love

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

Mercury Retrograde energy can be very beneficial for many things. Once you know what the energy can do, using Mercury Retrograde energy can help you retrieve an old relationship so you can renew, re-work, rebuild, and repair. There are rules that you must know about dating during Mercury Retrogrades though and here they are:

1. Mercury Retrograde energy is great for bringing people back around to us from the past.
2. If you have unfinished business or still have strong feelings for someone you broke up with in the past, this energy can help you renew and rebuild from a different place. 
3. Do your best to NOT meet anyone new during a Mercury Retrograde as it won't last, no matter how wonderful it feels.

Fun Facts:
Mercury entered its shadow point December 1st
Mercury turns retrograde December 19, 2016
Mercury turns direct January 8th, 2017


Case Study:

A fellow healer came to me two years ago during a Mercury Retrograde while I was in Colorado for a reading. She had begun to date a man that seemed like her soul mate. In fact, she was absolutely, positively certain they would get married. He seemed perfect!

I explained to her that no matter how he appeared today, once Mercury turned direct she would notice things about him that she didn't see before. 

As soon as the Mercury Retrograde ended, her wonderful man all of a sudden showed signs of philandering and seeing and being attentive to multiple women. The togetherness they experienced during the Mercury Retrograde abruptly ended leaving her shaking her head.

How could something shift so quickly in just three weeks? That is the energy of a Mercury Retrograde. 

I am so careful about the way I use this energy. In fact, when my daughter was planning her move this month, we consulted an astrologer to plan the best date of her move. She had to move before the Mercury Retrograde began because if she moved after December 19th, she would end up feeling she moved to the wrong apartment, made a mistake about moving in with a room mate, or would find something wrong with the situation. 

There are other things not to do during a Mercury Retrograde, watch for my article on Sunday.

Love and Good Fortune For This Mercury Retrograde And Solar Eclipse

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

Mercury began its third Retrograde journey August 30th at 9:04 AM EDT. This Mercury Retrograde is entirely in the sign of Virgo, Mercury's ruling planet giving it more bang for the buck! Mercury stations direct on September 22nd. Yes, the cruel cycle of Mercury Retrograde is occurring yet again!

"Expect the unexpected," says Cheney Hall, Astrologer.

Best Use Of A Mercury Retrograde?

• reorganizing, recycling, regrouping, reuniting
• reconciling, reusing, recreating, renewing, re-writing
• reconsidering, reflect, reassess, rethink, 
• renegotiate, release, renew
• re-polishing, releasing the old, letting go 

Mercury rules intellect, communications, and travel. With this Mercury Retrograde occurring in the sign of Virgo, an exacting detailed energy, we could be getting a double-whammy this time around.

Typical issues during a Mercury Retrograde are delays, issues with travel, and challenges with communications. Many relationships reflect these challenges with strife, break-ups, and fighting. Misunderstandings can be the theme of the month if you are not careful about your communication. Remember that communication is a two-way street, those you communicate with as well as those who communicate with you may not get you. The planets Venus and Jupiter provide some added benefits this time around.

The most fortuitous planets, Venus, the planet of love and Jupiter sweetly straddle Mercury bringing great fortune and love to this three-week cycle. 

Venus will help to soothe communication and bring romance to friendships. Jupiter associated with journeys will smooth out issues with travel that typically surface during a Mercury Retrograde turning the focus towards profit and away from business snafus. 

A Mercury Retrograde is a time to avoid large purchases like cars, computers, kitchen appliances and cell phones. Even getting your hair cut during a Mercury Retrograde could be disastrous. The result is often not what we would like.

This month we are met with an intense spiritual cleansing, awakening and a great opportunity to manifest with a magical 9-9-9-9 portal. September is the ninth month, and the end of a nine-year cycle 2016 (2+1+6= 9). This last quarter of the year is a time of wrapping up, completing that project or book before the end of the year. Next year, 2017, begins a new nine-year cycle.

Thursday's Solar Eclipse acts like a Super New Moon, which is an ideal time for setting new intentions we wish to see blossom and come to fruition six months from now. Mercury slipping into Retrograde just two days before the Eclipse could cause you to second-guess what you begin the first two weeks of September. Virgo is both the position of the Eclipse and the Retrograde, change is inevitable.

Chaos and the Unforeseen

There could be some significant chaos during the entire month of September through the fall Equinox. Delaying major decisions until after both the Lunar Eclipse on September 16th and the new moon on October 1st when Mercury will be direct and is highly recommended.

This Mercury Retrograde Is Good For:

1. It is a great time to re-connect to the rhythm of the earth.
2. A time to release old and outdated beliefs.
3. Reflecting upon our archetypes of Healer, Hermit High Preist, Priestess in Sacred Service
4. Focused positive critical thinking till after September 18th as karma comes to fruition
5. Release limiting beliefs and old stories
6. Get your energy cleared
7. Assimilate and integrate new connections, ideas, information, and possibilities
8. Regulate daily disciplines and devotional practices 
9. Dedicate yourself to healthier energy efficient lifestyle
10. Do away with mindlessness and distractions
11. Give more in the way of selfless service
12. Prioritize

During the new moon, manifesting is much more powerful. The mantra and yantra below will help you focus and perform your manifesting work.

Mantra and Yantra

A mandala is a geometric pattern which represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically. A mandala is a microcosm of the Universe from a human perspective. Yantras use mandalas as a symbolic representation of the cosmos, aspects of Divinity and the creative forces of the universe.

Yantras create new realities, pull in the power of the Masters who have used them for centuries as a focus for meditation. These visual patterns have a powerful effect on the mind, increasing coherence, creating a balance and calming effect. Yantras can relieve stress, quieting the restless mind.

Yantras are 

Using a Yantra as a focus of your meditation is a powerful way to  center the mind, purify thought, clarify communication, refine intellect and allow ease and grace in your travels. 

Mercury Yantra

Using the Yantra pictured to the left and the mantra below during the next three weeks will also open the throat chakra and assist you in clearing karma. Using the power of the planet Mercury in your chanting will focus your energy and attention on these areas powerfully. The recommended number of chants is 9,000 for the month focusing on Wednesdays and on September 9th. 

How To Use The Yantra

Begin by focusing on the dot in the center. This center point is called a Bindu, which represents unity that ties us all together. 

Now allow your eyes to see the inner triangle. This downward facing triangle represents the feminine. The upward facing triangle represents the masculine energy. 

Chant The Following Mercury Mantra For Manifesting
"Om Aim Bum Budhaya Namah"

Expand your vision to encompass the circle outside of the triangle. This circle represents the cycles of cosmic rhythm. Circles are endless and have no beginning or end. 

Now allow your eyes to take in the green lotus petals where the zodiac signs lie. These petals are pointing outwards, opening, unfolding of understanding once the heart fully flowers. The heart is the center of the self. When the heart fully opens understanding occurs.

Now focus on the outer square, this represents the material or world of form. The square shape gives the illusion of separateness, with well-defined edges and boundaries. The four T-shaped portals represent the passage from the external to the internal and sacred.

How To Get The Most Out Of This Crazy Time

• Give more expect less
• Disconnect from devices
• Quiet your mind
• Single-minded focus - less multi-tasking
• Pray 
• Meditate
• Connect to the earth
• Give gratitude
• Be compassionate with yourself and others
• Pure thoughts - upward spiraling and positive versus negative
• Love more, judge less
• Be open to new possibilities
• Be flexible
• Forgive more, resent nothing

In the shadow of Mercury Retrograde, we said a loving farewell to Gene Wilder who made so many laugh with his light-hearted comedies such as Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, Silver Streak and The Producers. Farewell Gene, we love you and are grateful for the laughter you have left in our hearts.

Almost Lunar Eclipse Tonight, August 18

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

If the skies were clear near you last night, you were able to see a beautiful round full moon. Tonight the eclipse takes place at 26 degrees of Aquarius, though there will be no shadow over the moon. The moon won't appear to be eclipsed at all. 

There is much good news surrounding this full moon, it is a time for new discoveries, and new relationships of all kinds.

What Does A Lunar Eclipse Mean?

Like all full moons the sun is opposite the moon, bringing your attention to home, family and relationships. Most people notice that their emotions reach their peak around a full moon. A full moon is a powerful time to gain perspective about the truth of your relationships, recognizing any imbalance or disharmony.

The August lunar eclipse and full moon will bring balance and compliment the new moon which occurred on August 2nd. Any projects begun two weeks ago will be completed at this time, as it is harvest time. This is the final phase of a six month cycle which began March 6th with the solar eclipse. Themes or major goals over the past six months will seek resolution and completion prior to the solar eclipse on September 1, 2016. The solar eclipse will clear the slate for a new beginning on September 2nd. 

Cliff Notes Version

• reconcile imbalances in relationships using higher awareness, experimentation and originality
• flashes of insight 
• increased intuition
• surprising events
• exciting change
• rejuvenate stale relationships by allowing increased freedom
• increased confidence 
• your quirky side enjoys expression
• leave your comfort zone
• try something new
• chance encounters can lead to romance

A full moon is a fabulous time to get a clearing so that you will be open to new by eliminating negativity, self-sabotage and blocks to love and success.

Mercury Retrograde

Mercury will begin its retrograde journey on August 30th through September 22nd. 

Feeling Stuck, Depressed Or Anxious?

You might not know exactly what I do for my clients. I have helped people clear the way to find healthy balanced loving relationships when they have never had one before. I have worked with famous producers, authors and even Spiritual Masters to eliminate challenges and patterns. I clear patterns that repeat, negativity, depression, suicidal programs, self-doubt and sabotage just as a start. 

I am a certified clinical hypnotherapist, NLP Practitioner, Master Energy Healer, Certified Love and Life Coach. 

A testimonial below that I just received this morning, explains how one clearing eliminated her sister's suicidal tendencies and depression. If you are feeling negative, plagued by doubt, challenges or emotions, I clear what is stuck in your field so that you can live your life fully expressed without the old patterns and programs blocking your positive experience of love, life and happiness.

 Suicidal Programs Eliminated - Testimonial from a client

8.18.2016

Jennifer has been an incredible force in my life since the day that I met her. She has done several clearings for me in the past, I knew she was the real deal and my intuition screamed to me, that she was the perfect person to help when my sister began to struggle with severe depression to the point of becoming suicidal.

A month had gone by and my sibling was like a shell of her former self. She was not eating, barely sleeping, and had not been able to work at all. I was able to convince her that an energy clearing would be beneficial for her. 

Jennifer had just returned home from travel right before I contacted her, but she dropped everything to help us within 10 minutes of my reaching out to her. Jennifer had a ton of insight into my sisters' personality and the origins of her struggle, yet half-way through my sister felt she couldn't continue with the clearing, and instead Jennifer continued with me on the phone. Because of this I was a bit skeptical as to whether it would work for her, but I kid you not. Four days later I contacted my sister and she was at Disney with her kid, about to "get some lunch" I couldn't even believe it worked that effectively and within such a short period of time. 

Since the clearing, my sister has returned to work and although things are not perfect she has returned to her normal, spunky, intelligent, funny, wise, self. 
I thank Jennifer tremendously. She has a true gift, a huge kind heart, and has been an enormous blessing to myself and my family. I would highly recommend her services to anyone and everyone. She's that good!

How To Use This Mercury Retrograde To Follow Your Heart's Desire

By Jennifer Elizabeth Masters

The planet Mercury, that rules intellect, communication, technology and travel turned retrograde April 28th. Knowing what this retrograde means to you and how best to use this powerfully transformative five-week period could save you heartache and possibly prevent disaster.

Astrology is a science that helps us create our lives on purpose. I am not an astrologer but have studied and learned enough to be able to share my experience and wisdom with you.

Mercury, began it's shadow point on April 14th turning retrograde today. The retrograde period ends on May 22nd and includes two more weeks beyond that in its shadow point. Because this retrograde is happening when three other planets are turning retrograde as well has the potential to amplify and cause an even greater impact transformation and upheaval in our lives. 

This retrograde began in the carnal and sensual sign of Taurus today. Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus (Aphrodite) which governs all aspects of pleasure, beauty, and love. Venus, like Aphrodite, didn't refuse any aspect of pleasure, enjoying it all. It is time to review your heart's desire with this Mercury Retrograde.

It is time to follow your heart's guidance. Love is all that matters. If you thought you said goodbye to someone in the past, it will be no surprise to hear from those from the past during this time.

Movin' and Shakin'

Retrogrades are all about taking a second look at decisions that we have made. Sometimes we make choices that don't support us. Now is an excellent time to review the way you have communicated and the self-sabotage that didn't support your highest and best good. You may find a shake up in your relationship and a return to something from long ago.

Communication Needs To Be Clear

Misunderstandings can occur when communication isn't crystal clear. Being vague can get you into difficulties. Learn to communicate effectively and honestly. Withholding information is a form of lying. It is time to come clean and communicate with clarity.

You may believe that the planets have little to no affect on your life. Just watch the tide coming and going with the rise of the moon, babies being born, and more deaths occurring at certain times of the year and you will begin to see the advantages of noting the retrograde periods.  

Pluto Retrograde

If you are a Scorpio, like me, it is time for your yearly review. Pluto began it's retrograde period April 18th. Pluto is in retrograde until September 26th. 

The planet Pluto is all about transformation, obsession, death (not necessarily of the physical body) and taxes. The Pluto Retrograde is not only about personal transformation but generational shifting as well. Death could be about old ways of communicating or being in your relationship. Now is a perfect time to focus on letting go of co-dependency, control and fears surrounding love and relationships. 

Interesting that our tax returns were due during this period. Prince made his transition during the Pluto retrograde. It is not unusual for more deaths to occur during a retrograde period. Scorpio and Capricorns will feel the extent of the Pluto retrograde more intensely. Restless tension and stress are components of this retrograde.

Walk gently on the earth

Pluto is all about the earth and our impact on it. It is time to look at how you impact this earth, what your role is and how you will leave it a better place or destroy it.

Mars, Pluto, and Jupiter are all in retrograde during the Mercury Retrograde throwing more transformation into the mix.

Get Out Of Your Way!

Until we can express our true feelings, openly we stand in our way of a soul connection and love. Holding back when you know how you feel causes confusion with your loved ones. Expressing your desires with clarity is needed to follow your heart's desire. You can transform your love life with a Mercury Retrograde. 

ASK and It Is Given

How often do you think something and suppress the urge to say it? 
How many times have you blocked yourself from having what you want? 
When is this going to change?

Note: I know of several couples (not me) that have withheld their true feelings from their partners and are now wishing for reconciliation. This retrograde period is an excellent time to make right what went wrong in the past. 

There are powerful uses for a Mercury retrograde period. I use them to my advantage rather than live in fear. Yes, I have begun dating someone during a retrograde who looked oh so promising, only to find out after the retrograde ended everything changed! 

Read the following list carefully and use this period to transform your life.

Do's and Don'ts During Mercury Retrograde

DO:

1. clean out closets
2. clear out unwanted and unneeded items and clutter
3. re-do taxes
4. review your life and heart's desire
5. re-think
6. re-organize
7. look within and transform your life, world and view of your role on this planet
8. return items you don't want
9. plan
10. Travel back to a place you have been to before.
11. Move back to a place you have lived.

Don't do any of the following during a Mercury Retrograde:

1. DO NOT start a new relationship during a Mercury retrograde it won't last even if it feels like you have met Mr. or Ms. RIGHT! Before the retrograde is over you will be scratching your head wondering how something so perfect could end so quickly. Believe me; I have given this guidance to many that didn't listen. They regretted it!
2. Do not buy a computer.
3. Do not get your computer repaired.
4. Do not buy a new car. Why? You won't like it once the retrograde period ends.
5. Do not buy a new cell phone. You will have difficulties with it.
6. Do not buy luxury items like a house, refrigerator, washer, dryer or anything expensive during a retrograde.
7. Do not start a new business venture.
8. Do not get married, engaged or begin dating someone new. Jennifer Anniston is one who got married during a Mercury Retrograde. She promptly had a nervous breakdown immediately following her wedding. Why? She thought she made a terrible mistake. Regret figures prominently following Mercury Retrograde decisions.
9. List a house for sale.
10. Sign a contract of any kind. 
11. Buy a new house.
12. Move to a new place or town.

Practice Self-Love

Loving the self is the key to all healing. I have been called The Self Love Guru because the focus on my work is self-love. Everything comes from a lack of self-love - even depression and addiction. When we love ourselves unconditionally, our health, relationships, and life shifts in powerful ways. Instead of focusing on problems we begin to see the gifts and lessons along the way. We see signs that guide us rather than feeling that we are unsupported. Instead of fear we begin to strengthen our faith. Rather than living in fear, we are empowered and joyful. I highly recommend everyone take my Love Yourself Fearlessly six week course, my signature program. In one session, people are changed. In three, they begin to see changes in their lives.
