Mercury Retrograde

Today, September 10th, in History

1963 President John F. Kennedy federalizes Alabama’s National Guard to prevent Governor George C. Wallace from using guardsmen to stop public-school desegregation. In January of 1963, following his election as Governor of Alabama, George Wallace famously stated in his inaugural address: "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." In what historians often refer to as the "Stand in the Schoolhouse Door," the governor literally stood in the doorway as federal authorities tried to allow the students to enter.

 

1981 Pablo Picasso’s painting Guernica is returned to Spain and installed in Madrid’s Prado Museum. Picasso stated in his will that the painting was not to return to Spain until the Fascists lost power and democracy was restored. Regarded by many art critics as one of the most moving and powerful anti-war paintings in history.[2] Standing 11 ft 5 in tall and 25 ft 6 in wide, the large mural shows the suffering of people wrenched by violence and chaos.

2001 Contestant Charles Ingram cheats on the British version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, wins 1 million pounds. After winning £1,000,000, the payout was suspended when Ingram was accused of cheating by having his wife, Diana, and an accomplice, Tecwen Whittock, cough as Ingram announced the correct answer from the available choices. Diana Ingram had previously been a contestant and won £32,000. Her brother Adrian Pollock had also previously won the same amount. has since participated in other television shows, including Weakest Link (where he appeared with his wife Diana), Wife Swap (in which he swapped lives with Jade Goody's boyfriend) and Hell's Kitchen and controversially on Big Brother's Big Mouth.

Mercury Retrograde

August 30th to September 22nd

 

Mercury rules communication, clear thinking, truth and travel, so when the planet goes retrograde — which means that it looks like it’s going backwards in the sky — all those things go backwards. They start to get ugly and tangle up. Mercury isn’t really going backwards, it’s just hanging out by the sun, but from Earth, that makes it look like it’s in reverse. It typically runs for a couple of weeks, a few times a year.

Mercury rules all types of communication, including listening, speaking, learning, reading, editing, researching, negotiating, selling, and buying. Mercury also rules all formal contracts and agreements, as well as important documents such as book manuscripts or term papers, agreements, deeds, contracts, leases, wills, and so forth.

Included under this planet’s domain are all types of code, including computer codes, as well as transportation, shipping, and travel. When this planet retrogrades, these areas tend to get scrambled or spin out of control.

 

​

What Not To Do

Don’t Make/sign Agreements

Don’t Accept or Start a Job.

Don’t Try to Close the Sale.

Don’t Initiate New Projects

Scheduling Meetings

Avoid Traveling

Don’t Purchase Computers or Begin Installations.

Don’t Repair Your Auto unless you absolutely have to

Don’t Buy Things

Don’t Select a Roommate or Move in With One

 

What To Do

Be sure not to take things personally

Back up your data!

Don’t purchase any big ticket items, because they will often have flaws or issues that you weren’t aware of Like computers/cars

Take things with a grain of salt. Everyone is a bit confused, and people are much more inclined to change their mind once Mercury goes direct.

Read the small print on any contracts.

Finish things you started a while ago

Get together with old friends, reminisce and laugh!

Double-check any information you’re given, especially as relates to travel arrangements!

Mr. Lombardo, is a long time resident (34 years), a very engaged citizen of Collier County, an outstanding family law attorney and Fire Commissioner for many years. In his very entertaining interview (you MUST listen!), he offers us extraordinary insight into the history of fire services in Collier County, the benefits of successful recent transitions that he has been integral in creating and what the future holds.  Looking forward to his next couple of years in office to finish the road map he helped chart.
