With Mercury, planet of communication, now turned retrograde until May 11, you may deal with missed connections between you and others. Often there will be glitches with anything related to forms of communication, such as verbal disconnects or lost or delayed messages. Look out for snafus with telephone, TV, mail or newspaper service in particular.

Travel reservations are best booked after Mercury turns direct so that any mishaps during vacations or business trips are lessened or avoided altogether. You may also want to hold off on major purchases or investments until communication is once more moving forward.

The transformer, Pluto, recently turned retrograde. What does this mean for us? Individually or collectively? As god of the underworld, Pluto can mean that there can be change, sometimes significant and perhaps unforseen for us. Incidents underground or inside the earth can occur. Take for instance the recent mining accident in West Virginia. This involved much loss of life deep within the earth, very plutonian.

Underground pipes, gas, water or electric can rupture or require repair. Or situations long "buried" in relationships will surface, demand to be noticed and dealt with once and for all.

How can you best manage through Plutonian times? Pay attention. Self awareness is always key. How does this person or situation make me feel? Honestly? If you find yourself going along just to get along, Pluto will eventually "undermine" this behavior and insist you be true to yourself.
