Mercury in retrograde - I LOVE YOU

Today is the last day Mercury is in retrograde for 2011. If you do not know what Mercury in retrograde is, talk to my friend, Wonder Bright! She's amazing at letting you know how to understand yourself through astrology!

I'm now starting a practice of sitting down and writing a list of "things to do" and actually take action on it while Mercury is in retrograde. It's a time where I sit down, asses and reassess what I'm doing in my life. I figure 4 times a year set aside to catch up is a great time frame and so far it works. Just to let you know, Mercury is in retrograde happens 4 times a year.

It was very uplifting to cross things off the list, complete those items lingering in the back of my head and clean! The closet is clean, clothes are donated, electronics are recycled and there's physical freedom in my space! There's also a lot of unexpected things that showed up. I found thins to start moving that used to be at a standstill. Also, because all the clutter is cleared, I get to be present in my life more times than not. I know it's probably because of the holidays, but I am really enjoying it. For the first time, I'm enjoying company, I'm enjoying being present and grateful for my life and I'm thankful for the people in my life. It is a real nice treat to end my year with! Because lord knows, last year ended a little differently.

The other thing that came out of this journey is realizing who I am, what I like to do and embrace it all. I'm taking ownership and through that... I know that I can handle any challenge coming my way.

At last, Mercury will go direct tomorrow, I'm prepared for the new things that will appear and the opportunity to be with the challenges, people and my life!

Happy Holidays!
