If you feel you are fumbling through life, you are not alone. People ought to know about the Mercury cycles and use them; that would eliminate so much worry and anguish. When they don't know, they think "I am failing totally; my life is a mess; nothing is fitting together; I may as well give up." If they only knew that this is connected with Mercury's backward motion and that they can wait it out and work through it, it would be so much easier to bear. And, I am convinced, many suicides would be prevented. 

That backward motion comes to a slow stop, and gradually turns to forward motion, on Friday the 28th; but not so fast! In fact, Mercury remains very slow in its motion after that and the Bright Hermetic Epoch does not begin until March 20 (always from two to three weeks after Mercury turns direct). A calm slow surveillance of everything crucial in your life is the best course, coupled with a refusal to make any drastic changes and a willingness to do necessary backtracking and reconnoitering.

Sincerity, sympathy, and spiritual truth emanate from people. This is wonderful to experience.

Some will be teaching or guiding others or ferrying them from one place to another in reality or in consciousness. 

At another level, business and accounting are important even if there are delays or numbers seem hard to crunch. As for taxes, I have already suggested that if they seem daunting, it could be well to wait until early or even mid-March or the end of March to finish them or to double-check them before filing. The work will probably go much more quickly and faultlessly then.

The influences surrounding you, from males as well as females, are largely beneficent and illuminating, making your path smoother, no matter how complex or peculiar. The sandbanks you hit can give you a chance to recover while learning something in a casual, unhurried manner.

Some pass on a torch to someone else, to someone considered fit to carry it in the race. One rests while the other carries on. If the one to whom the torch is passed sits down to relax, one can only wonder what is in his mind. Yet this is more likely to happen at a time like this. It is well to be vigilant.

A bit of humor here and there is appropriate. Capricorn where the moon floats can be ironically funny. Yet it is good to be serious about what is serious, and refuse to attempt more than is possible at present. We all tend to be or seem more incompetent, outwardly, while Mercury is retrograde or slow, even if our inner thoughts are sublime. Dangers should be avoided.

People are basically good and usually want to be frank, relaxed and uplifting with one another, supporting one another's struggles. So may it be.
