This is an incredibly busy day! First of all Mercury in Cancer has turned Retrograde (Rx). You could probably feel this energy coming, as Cancer is THE SECOND MOST intuitive sign of the zodiac, while Pisces is THE MOST. Whether or not the Cancer or Pisces energy gets used as such is a whole other story. Often times this energy is mischannelled into doubt, fear, worry or axiety, which instantly squashes the intuition. Remember, Mercury in Cancer has its 'Finger on the Pulse of the Public' because Cancer rules feelings and knows how the public feels and carries the motto, "I feel therefore I am." It's not what Cancer feels emotionally, it's what Cancer feels intuitively, but all too often, Cancer takes things way too personal making it about them when 'it' wasn't about them at all and thereby and squashed the intuitive hit. Bummer! When Cancer energy shows up, there will be tears.

Cancer is the sign that rules the 4th house of home, family, childhood, the mother, the biological and psychological foundation and all things relating to these areas of your Life. Cancer is the sign of the martyr, which often suffers from poor-me-syndrome. The Moon is Cancer's natural ruling planet, so when we experience a Moon in Cancer, we have to walk on eggshells so as not to hurt anyone's feelings and someone always ends up crying. It's awful. The Moon rules emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities as does Cancer since the Moon rules Cancer. So now take this Cancer energy and drop it in the area of communication (Mercury) and transportation because Mercury naturally rules communication and transportation, mix it in with family and then make it go backwards and you have family drama playing out in a huge way. Someone will end up in tears and family drama is about to get rehashed.

You get expect a lot of old memories to be rehashed as well, especially if those memories involve hurt. You can make someone angry and they will get over it, but hurt someone and that involves a lifetime of healing and apologies. Expect this during Mercury Retrograde. I always say, the Universe if giving you a 'do over'. You get to 'do over' whatever it is that you messed up the first time around. Now Mercury is headed backwards so you can fix what needed fixing or give your attention to that which needed your attention. Retrogrades are a Good thing, they give you a second and third chance to get it right before progressing forward.

**Incidentally, there is an astrologer out there using my verbiage. I know my writing style and the way I speak, and so do my loyal Astrotators, so stop using my style and get your own. I had this called to my attention by several of my followers and when I checked it out, there was no doubt I was witnessing a copy-cat. So here's your notice, please do not make me call you out publically because I was born without the 'stand down' chip. I pretty much stand up for myself.

So anyway, Mercury in Cancer is definitely going to cause some family drama and get the tears rollin'. Memories will be rehashed because there is no other sign that can hold a memory quite like Cancer, who has the memory of an elephant. This is loud, it's biting, it's crabby and it's hurt. More than likely there is maternal energy involved and it will look whatever way it does in your own world. If you feel the need to rehash, then get it over with and move along. Mercury in Cancer is going to be with us until August 4, 2020 due to this Retrograde, so you may as well figure on getting the family story straight. Mercury went into Cancer on May 28, 2020, it retrogrades today until July 12, 2020 and then will finally change signs into Leo on August 4, 2020. It's a summer of family drama. Fix it! And again, I'm tellin' there will be tears. Count on it!

Now, do I need you to remind you not to buy anything with cogwheels or electronic parts during Mercury Retrograde? Don't we know this by now. We should also know by now not to sign any documents. Communication is tough right now so coming to agreements and signing paperwork is not a Good idea. Mercury rules communication and transportation, promotions, marketing, public relations, writing and media. It is not a Good time to buy gadgetry, phones, computers, appliances, cars or anything with a motor or cogwheel. I guarantee it will be a lemon if you insist on buying these items. Don't make me say, "I told'ja so" because I will, I'm like that. Anything else, buy away, except those things.

We also experience today Mars sextile Pluto, which is some incredible power and aggression. Many of you might have been experiencing some of the energies the night before (Wednesday night) even though the energy is exact today. And this aspect will last until Wednesday, June 24, 2020. This energy of Mars lights a match to something and explodes it into a higher realm of action. This energy is courageous, powerful and willpowerful. If someone is giving you grief or a hard time, I guarantee you will stand up and give it right back. This energy is not taking any BS.

Mars is the ancient ruler of Scorpio, while Pluto is the modern day ruler of Scorpio, which happens to be the 007 agent of the zodiac. This sextile gives the qualification to be a top investigator or researcher as the facts are uncovered no matter is being pursued.

Since Mars and Pluto rule the muscular system, this is a perfect placement for working out or working on projeccs that require muscle power. The individual with this placement in their chart has a lot of body muscle and will likely be committed to working out. Since this energy is close to the New Moon in Cancer on early Sunday morning, this aspect supports your exercise routine.

Check out the Holistic Shop as I changed the fees on natal charts, solar returns and phone readings. And at the request of a few astrotators, I added FORTUNE REPORTS back into the shop. You will notice that the fees for the charts and reports have been cut in half and the phone reading fees have dropped as well. I will be soon be posting the North Node in Gemini and South Node in Sagittarius Transiting Degree Calendar because the Nodes change signs on May 6, 2020 until January 18, 2022. Watch for this and in the mean time, make sure you have a copy of the North and South Node eBook.
