What about this for a Mercury Rx story?
We're always reading that it's about stuff going wrong, going missing, being delayed. But using the retrograde to do some deep inner reworking? That isn't often mentioned.
Mercury has recently crossed my AC at 26 Taurus, stationed on 2 Gemini and will be going back into my 12th house during the retrograde.
I've been offered - out of the blue, at very short notice, a chance to attend a Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) course leading to being a Practitioner. This is being supported by my workplace. I'm taking up a place that someone else can't use. I had just over a week's notice and start next Monday - I've already had to do some preparation which gave me a hint that this is going to be challenging and fascinating. I have to be 100% committed to it which means going down into the dark, dredging up behaviour patterns which don't serve any more, and doing some deep thinking and very honest self-appraisal.
So Mercury in the 12th house is perfect!

Thanks Aphrodite for these lovely thoughts - will sort out a link to the LOA post.
What a real-live traditional Mercury Rx week it's been at work this week - keys and padlocks going missing, people turning up for meetings that don't exist, lunch not turning up for meetings that do, internet access going slow or crashing altogether ... and that was just in the last 2 days!!

And 4 people turned up today for a course that had been cancelled. They hadn't had the text message ..!
ANYWAY. Back to the NLP course. Aphrodite you are so right, the Universe has lined this up for me. I just threw a horary chart asking "what will I gain from NLP?".
Ascendant - 16 Scorpio - Sabian "A Girl's Face Breaking into a Smile" (self explanatory!)
Moon in the 3rd (learning) in Aquarius (new and innovative approaches) - Sabian symbol for 9 Aquarius is "A Flag is Seen Turning into an Eagle" (Lynda Hill says this indicates self-esteem, strength and transformation).
Midheaven (career) is at 3 Virgo "Two Guardian Angels Bringing Protection" which is an image of support and counselling. And the course is being run by 2 people, in their home.
And Mars, ruling the chart, is at 18 Aries "An Empty Hammock hangs between 2 trees" which is an image of working too hard and not taking enough time out. Too true! I'm already having to battle the "I ought to be at work not taking 3 days off training" gremlins.
This is when the Sabian symbols work so beautifully - when the question isn't contrived, or pre-planned - the horary is just thrown "on the moment".
