Re-Story-ing Magic….
The happy re-union of Mystery, Myth, Magic and Science.
Creation is Communicative…
Con-versing, we are all in one giant con-versing, turning together.
Everything real, everything symbolic is the essence of divination.
Let’s imagine and welcome that wherever we direct our attention – is a realm that is especially eager to communicate with us, to tell us its story, that we may in turn tell its story…
Mercury and Jupiter – representing respectively, the Intelligences of Communication and Story-telling, direct our attention…
Simultaneous with Mercury transiting the Sun today, Jupiter has stationed to resume forward motion, representing outward expression.
(I have been Mesmerized by watching the tiny dot of Mercury traversing the Sun, creative dilly-dallying, hence missive a squosh late, but on Mercury retrograde time.)
In Antiquity, Mercury is in the Underworld now, usually invisible.. (although the Babylonians were amazingly mythologically scientifically hip to the transits of Venus and Mercury, profound mathematical astronomical calculations. Mercury and Venus.)
Mythological Mercury/Hermes was/is one of the very few who could traverse the Underworld as part of his beat….
(Velocity trumps gravity…which is why Mercury is not inhaled by the Sun. Hence Wings on Shoes) (The transit is always in November or May, due to the eccentricity of Mercury’s orbit…)
(November 2019 will be next Transit of Mercury…)
So now: we see what is normally unseen…Let us ponder this available intrigue, amplifying the availability of revelation.
For each of us, in our own personal lives, as well as the collective – we can see what is usually hidden…Guide through the Underworld…
This is especially available now, as Mercury retrograde is trining Pluto – the Intelligence of Underworld navigation. Hermes guides Persephone out of the Underworld… Where would we like to have a guide, and to be a guide?
Mercury Hermes – presides over thresholds and cross-roads, travelers, journeyers, campaign rituals for revelation of truth.
What doorways would we like to cross? Where do we seek guidance in our unfolding journey?
Queries engage call and response.
Mercury and Jupiter are eager to file scouting reports…and we are all ears, willing to be informed, and this informing…
Onward into revelatory esoterica team!

“The Emerald Tablet of Hermes
True, without falsehood, certain and most true: that which is above is as that which is below, and that which is below is as that which is above, to perform the miracles of the One Thing.
And as all things were from One, by the meditation of One, so from this One Thing come all things by adaptation. Its father is the Sun, its mother is the Moon, the wind carried it in its belly, the nurse thereof is the Earth.
It is the father of all perfection and the consummation of the whole world. Its power is integral if it be turned to Earth.
Thou shalt separate the Earth from the Fire, the subtle from the coarse, gently and with much ingenuity. It ascends from Earth to heaven and descends again to Earth, and receives the power of the superiors and the inferiors.
Thus thou hast the glory of the whole world; therefore let all obscurity flee before thee. This is the strong fortitude of all fortitude, overcoming every subtle and penetrating every solid thing. Thus the world was created. Hence are all wonderful adaptations, of which this is the manner.
Therefore am I called Hermes the Thrice Great, having the three parts of the philosophy of the whole world. That is finished which I have to say concerning the operation of the Sun.”

(I am now reading) Ursula Le Guin’s Earth Sea novel, The Farthest Shore, which is about the dangerous loss of magic…which is pertinent modern “news” campaign coverage…
as we are re-storying magic, a willingness to cooperate with everything, that which guides us out of our customized and collective underworld conundrum.
