From where we're lookin', Mercury will appear to go in a direct motion today. When Mercury is in retrograde, its orbit is often lined up with our sightline, so it appears to be stationary. As it moves around the bend, we can start to see its linear progress again. The retrograde is always just an illusion from our point on Earth. Mercury stations direct at 22 degrees Taurus, and won't hit the territory of new ground until it hits Gemini 1 (June 15th).
The day of Mercury stationing direct may bring revelations big and small. In Taurus, we can see how to rebuild the structure of a thing. Or get a clearer idea of how we can live our values, generate more true wealth, enjoy life's pleasures more deeply.

Ahhh – finally! I have been in a hermit stage of reevaluation and trying to reinvent my own wheel! I hope that I get the thunderbolt of realization on how to restructure my life so that I can live the live that I long to at last -
I’m sure you’re not alone, Lady P. I think this June, though full of challenges, will bring in some new fresh air…..especially when Mercury goes into speedster Gemini.
LadyP, I have been exactly the same way!
And it has not been fun! Full of self-doubt and defeatism. But it really does feel as though something’s lifted, as though the waters of confusion and negativity are receding… I’m an artist, so my life is self-propelled,and when I feel bad about myself and hopeless, it takes a big toll on my productivity.
