(our mutual horoscope)
We’re in Mercury retrograde
it’s a chance to reexamine your heart
expect some miscommunication
cause we’re outside of comfort zones
expect a flood of new emotions
situations can get out of control
you might lose some inhibition
so check your intuition
Mercury’s moving very slowly,
I advise you to do the same
see, mercury focuses on details
while pisces takes a more creative view
when you put the two together
the juxtaposing energy’s confusing
you can feel extreme nostalgia
which could swamp your boundaries
So seek the least amount of damage
let water be your sanctuary
question other people’s stressful projections
take a beat from irritations
and be careful around your exes
connect with people who have your back
protect the things you want to foster
cause this going to be exhausting
.

A song for this:
Bloom Baby Bloom by Wolf Alice [E]
The Whole of the Moon by The Waterboys
I am a retrograde, who never says goodbye
To my old greener grass, to my bluer sky
I live within the past, still the time goes fast
Each day’s a circle line train, each round’s the last
The news I watch today I’ve seen times before
The music I prefer must be the one I know
I wouldn’t ask myself, is that the way I choose
Or it’s a game I play without a lame excuse
One day this train will stop, and I will fly
Over the trees and houses, like a kite, so high
Over the land I’ll fly, and the seas at night
Just like any moth I’ll go, straight into the light.
On the edge of November sighs
the end of October steps aside,
the roses no longer in bloom
as they did in the warmth of June;
come the winter of our descent
into timeless age well spent
as memories overtake our souls and hearts
remembering what drew us close then set us apart;
Slip away old grudges and gilded mistakes purveyed
forget the sin and errors once made
return to love, acceptance for the asking
of reunions and reconnections unmasking
the illusions long ago of right and wrong decisions
when time slips into retrograde.
Mercury in Retrograde
The stars play
troublesome pranks.
Send us back where we began
back again.
We crash we wake
and seethe,
like the pull from the moon
at night
on sand.
This relationship is going the wrong way,
it started off great, but as of late,
it has a foreseeable expiration date
Too many arguments,
too many dodgy eyes
Not enough trust between us,
got my head hurting from laying on an empty pillow of lies
I loved how you were so mysterious at first,
you were somebody unlike anybody I ever met before
Had a cool way of always being evasive,
but now I'm beginning to suspect why
I don't trust those crocodile tears you conveniently cry
This relationship is going in the reverse,
it's going retrograde
True lovers don't deceive one another,
that's a recipe for disaster homemade
Retrograde,
starry eyes moving backwards once the attraction fades
This relationship is headed the wrong way,
it's going retrograde
Now is the time to leave your lying inertia behind
If you want to swing the right momentum,
then fuel this sputtering rocket love with some truth serum
Otherwise, this romantic boost is going terminal retrograde;
this failed relationship has irreversible heart damage,
I'm afraid there's nothing left to be saved
My soulmate is a pilgrim,
He explores the zodiac’s constellations
Not always in our own Milky Way, he treks
His journeys enlighten mankind
Because he aims his bow hunting faith in Sagittarius
And swims with emotional artistry in Pisces
He judges mankind with Libran scales
As he admires beauty while visitingTaurus
By Capricorn he calculates the distances to travel
With Gemini he knows about all the heavens
In Aquarius he will always be courageous and cool
While adventuring The Scorpio Moon, my soulmate tells no secrets
Because he is a man of Aries who has great self worth
His mother The Virgin he humbly thanks
The Cancer crab brings him home again
He enters Earth as Leo the lion
That time occurred when Regulus in retrograde circled Jupiter
Then, Jupiter conjoined Venus
Making it event the brightest lights in all heaven
So the Maggi would find the divine child
My soulmate is that deity
He rides on the tail of the comets.
One day he will come again
He promised
And he, my friend, does not lie.

Listen to the wind,as it speaks gods' command.Feels cold as it blows through my hair.Look
at the sand as it drifts by at a fast paced cyclone.The smell of vapor,as the storm
approaches.Wind carries cautious concern.
