I could write another long essay on the Dark Hermetic Epoch, extending to November 10. I am not Johnny One-Note but the human race needs to understand these Mercury cycles. What I call the DHE extends on both sides of every Mercury Retrograde period, at least ten days in each direction. That means that the Dark and Bright Hermetic Epochs keep alternating, each about 60 days long, the Dark somewhat shorter. We are still in it, even though Mercury is now direct. That helps, but the confusion continues.
The Antares rocket exploding last night just after take-off is a symbol of this. (I am one of those who think that "space travel" is absurd and adharmic. This is our planet and space ship; deal with it.) Yes, Mercury is direct, but still very slow. The effects are almost the same as when it was retrograde. Mistakes, backtracking, side paths which get people in trouble, on and on. The Denver man who disappeared during a Bronco football game is another example. He left to go to the game in a hurry, not taking a cell phone or credit cards, and then disappeared. In my own life, I am trying to keep up every day but all seems delayed. These reports are being posted much later than usual. And so it goes. Things are "out-of-pattern." The Ebola scare is another example, with all the bickering, backpedaling, disagreement, and misinformation. The head of state of North Korea disappeared while Mercury was retrograde. Amusing. But then he turned up. Not amusing. And on and on . . .
\Orphan Command/
The trader in precious stones has made a fortuitous find.
Fortune smiles. This is better than expected. Intuition
And foresight are real, balancing power. The serpent of
Wisdom his girdle, he raises his hand to command.
The nest of young birds lies on the ground. The priest
Passing by stops to see how he can help. Lifting them
To safety is something like teaching children of
Neglectful parents. Orphans of the world struggle on.
The children find kindergarten quite surprising yet somehow
Very familiar. Avid for the real, they confront the Other in
Other little bodies while Teacher's old pictures and hieroglyphs
Cover the wall. Naively they explore, wonder, come to center.
