Proceed with caution

All the things that have been slow to gain momentum over the past few weeks look set to get back on track. The thoughts, the ideas and the logistics and plans that have been on the back burner are now back on the table. Reason being is that Mercury hits the brakes and starts to move in a forward direction again. This is what you can expect from all that has been stuck, stagnant or just plain frustrating recently.

That said, things may not be as simple as they appear. There is still the potentiality for things to go a little haywire or not quite how you expected. So, do expect the unexpected. A change of mind or a change of heart may be required.

As one area of life slowly starts to move forward, so does another. The topic of relationships, diplomacy and going along to get along also looks favorable. That said, there is a catch here, too. Don’t make a deal, a decision, a contract or arrangement that you aren’t prepared to go all in on. This may be a case of speak now or forever hold your peace.

A variety of fears

May 28, 2025
One of the TV talk shows I was watching recently discussed fears. The comment was made that we outgrow most childhood fears, but some remain. Fear of the dark is a common one when you are young. I remember a night light solved that problem for me. My bedroom door was left open, and there…

‘Friendship’ is not for the faint of heart

May 28, 2025
Forming a new friendship with someone in your 40s is challenging enough; try doing it if you’re an introvert. Writer/director Andrew DeYoung’s comedy “Friendship” is a hilariously dark look at male bonding with a leading performance from Tim Robinson that audiences won’t soon forget.  Where to begin with this movie? I guess, for starters, a…
