“I relate to the firing synapses willy nilly … I am wildly alert, yet kinda stunned or something …” quipped one Aqua’d wayfarer just this morning.

Sounds familiar.

My mind has been going at warp-speed, as my Aquarius Sun,  Saturn, Midheaven and asteroids — a.k.a. my Aquarian Stuff — are more activated than usual in the Energies of Now. Perhaps you can relate?

Given the current cocktail of cosmic juju, we can more easily tap into the Aqua-Uranian qualities of insight, synchronicity, and genius (yes, we all have it … read on!).

And we would be also wise to balance all of that electrical, super-buzzed synaptic activity with some dedicated nervous-system-soothing self-care, lest we fritz-out and blow a fuse or two. Bzzzt! Metaphorically speaking, of course.

Of course, these possibilities and opportunities are always available to us, but at certain times they’re amped up and more easily available than ever.

Here’s what our insightful and courageous-minded friend Molly Hall says about one key element of the Energies of Now:

“Being spacy and distracted is not unusual during Mercury’s retrograde (in Aquarius).

It can send us down rabbit holes, where one strange thing leads to another.  There can be a lot of flashes on seemingly random ideas, that sometime mosaic together unexpectedly, but other times stay a jumble of erratic strings of thought.  It’s a good time for research and following the syncs you get that guide you forward.

The winged messenger Hermes (Greek) came before the Roman Mercury and was known as a conductor of souls into the underworld.  During Mercury’s retrograde, we can be temporarily lost to the topside world, as we turn our eyes inward, to the secret caverns of our own underworld.

This is an absorbing experience, sometimes with an unknown outcome.  The genius is that gift we each have to be interactive with life, and come into awareness of how we’re actors in it.” ~ Molly Hall (see below for the link to the rest of these Mercurial Secrets.)

There is a sense of swimming upstream, as Molly says (follow the link below) — and swimming way upstream and sending back choice bits of horizon-edge intel is the usual Aquarian territory and comfort/discomfort zone (you’ll get that if you’ve got Aquarian stuff and/or Aquarian peeps!).

May you breathe deeply and easily, and flow well with the currents of the Energies of Now.
