Do you feel the momentum picking up? Get used to it, as this year is going to fly by. The latest Mercury retrograde revelation is that the US Secretary of Defense kept secret an operation to treat prostate cancer. The surgery was on December 22, when Mercury was retrograde. Surgery is ill-advised when Mercury or Mars is moving in reverse motion. Mercury rules the hands and Mars the scalpel.

Chaos broke out in Ecuador when a drug lord escaped from prison, and gang members wreaked havoc all over the country. They took over a TV station and interrupted a news broadcast. Mercury rules commerce, including the drug trade and news. Neptune governs disappearing acts and TV. At the same time, warlord Mars was sextile, punishing Saturn. Prison riots broke out. Explosions, burning cars, looting, and other violent actions terrorized the country. Thankfully order is restored. The President declared a 60-state emergency state of emergency. 

 Astrology is a fantastic tool for self-discovery. To harness its maximum potential, you need to know the exact time you were born. I am trained in chart rectification, which back calculates birth times from live events. Check out the YouTube conversation I had with my friend and colleague Tiffany Harelik as I overview the technique and use the chart of Ecuador as an example. If you know anyone who does not know their time but would love to use astrology, please share my information.
