Meet me again, in the rain

In the movie of my life, the most perfect song to walk around NYC in the rain to is "Oceans" from the new Coldplay album Ghost Stories. They have quite literally perfected the art of the ballad and I'm not mad. There are some songs that require the perfect mood to really resonate and others that just click any time. I enjoyed this song from the start, however walking down 9th Ave in the rain today, "Oceans" just made all the sense in the world. AND 'rain' is even in the song. So there's that...

Anyway. Mercury Retrograde seems to be fucking my shit up. I've been going backwards, which makes all the sense in the world if you are familiar with MR. Past behaviors, people from my past, miserable feelings from my past. Past, past, past. But I am aware and trying to make better decisions knowing things are a little messed up. I don't think you can ever completely avoid making mistakes during MR, but you can just be aware of what is happening and react differently. And take comfort in the fact that everyone else's world is being fucked up by MR too! Misery loves company...

I thought I would provide some links for those of you experiencing the symptoms.
