Going Back(wards)

Have you been feeling sluggish? Out of sorts? Are things just not getting done? You may be strongly affected by Mercury in retrograde.

Apparently it started on the 20^th, but last week was a surprisingly good one for me – closure, dvds from amazon, our agent was overcome with “love” (4x in one email) for our script, a response from Carl’s Jr apologizing for “offending” me with their commercial (in was “not their intent”, by the way), and a mystery email.

But around me, people were falling apart. Computer and car trouble, persistant colds, wacky apartment hunts, inexplicable rashes - the whole lot. Someone mentioned the Mercury situation, and it peaked my interest. I originally came up with a theory that Water signs were vulnerable. Then I spoke to a Capricorn who prizes organization, and she was a wreck. Some of these people knew of the retrograde, but not all.

It's hardly scientific, but it's something to think about. And possibly blame.
