Star Struck Style

The sun conjoins my natal Mercury today. “Café Astrology” interprets the annual event as follows:

“You are especially sharp, communicative, and open at this time, as your wants are aligned with your thoughts. You tend to think and act automatically, and you could come across as an ‘open book’ now, even if your nature is not especially forthright. It’s a favorable time for solving problems. For the most part, you are on the ball. Circumstances are such that you need to adapt, adjust, communicate, or travel. Transportation and movement, in general, are issues now.

Because it’s easy to rationalize your behavior, it’s a favorable time to work on improving your skills. You tend to say what you think now. Keep in mind that what you say or write now has impact, for better or for worse! As well, others could find you self-absorbed for the time being. It would be wise to take the time to listen to what others have to say.”

I really do feel as if I’m “on the ball.” What’s more, I feel like getting out my exercise ball and doing a few stretches. I fell and cracked a rib about three weeks ago and I haven’t been able to do everything that I like to do in order to stay fit, including doing stretches on the ball like the one in the photo above.

It’s lucky for me that I’ve got an extra day off from work to make up for some overtime I’ve accrued. Although my mind is going a mile a minute and invariably taking me back to work occasionally, I’m going to try to focus on the fact that I’ve got a whole day to do whatever I want. I don’t work. I don’t teach a class at my place of work like I usually do on my days off. I don’t really have anything planned. I can actually be “Mercurial” for a change and allow myself to go wherever my mood may lead me.

And on that note, I’m going to log out of this computer . . .
