Mercury Retrograde in Virgo — Woof.

The last time I visited my friend, who introduced me to Human Design, she said an interesting thing that has stuck with me.

“I don’t feel the shorter transits as sensitively as I feel the longer ones.”

Meaning she’s sensitive to being aware of the longer term, outer planet transits and their more forest view life lessons than she is of the shorter term, closer planets, their quicker movements, and tree view lessons.

And I felt that as that was my experience with my husband before we opened up. I was pretty unaware of the ups and downs, highs and lows of the inner transits and more readily aware of the longer-term life transitions.

However, since meeting the boyfriend I’ve been crazy aware of the short term, inner planet transits. We listen to a weekly overview podcast when it comes out on Monday and again on Sunday for review and it’s almost always exactly what we experience.

I’ve given this some thought. My husband is very steady — ‘Stable’, as it were, has a defined emotional center, and has to resist my Channel of Judgment. Both the boyfriend and have undefined emotional centers and share the companionship Channel of Judgement, which is described as ‘A Design of Instability’. Neither of us is ‘stable’.
