The New-Re-Beginning--Mercury Retrograde Heaven
July 7, 2007

Here I go again. But, let me flash back for a moment--I'll make it quick, maybe/hopefully/I'll try!

1994.
Mercury was retrograde.
My very first webpage. My baby. My personal place in the wonderful wild Internet.
All black and gold. I thought it looked mystical but earthy. It really looked black and gold and was very hard to read.
A client made it for me.
I filled it with stuff. Just stuff. Astrology and art, observations, information..whatever came out of my head on any particular day.
It had a vast reach. On any given day 2 or 3 people visited it. Me, the guy who designed it and the occasional Internet stray. A wondrous beginning.
But I was happy.

1999.
Mercury was retrograde.
Now it really began. Over 5 years I learned how to make my own pages. Free websites were everywhere. If they offered it...I took it and had, at one point, 10 plus astrology sites running. I was in creative heaven. Black and gold, purple, blue and pink, earthy green/brown, serious, silly, huge, tiny...I built a site in every possible style.
But now I got serious. I bought a "real site." No banners flashed, no ads annoyed.
Yes, I made every significant step during a Mercury retrograde. Sometimes on purpose, sometimes without choice--websites folded, websites dumped me and on and on.

1999-2004-Since THIS chapter would take a dozen articles of its own I will leave it for later. Let's just say there was massive growth, significant learning experiences, a HUGE amount of money, no money, vast websites and no websites--in different orders at different times. And guess what, yep, the major changes always came during Mercury retrogrades including the final chapter of the last site.

And now I am here....it is July 2007 and Mercury is retrograde. I have begun a new/old site.
Stir everything that came before into one huge, mushy ball of clay and recreate it. THAT'S what this site will be about.

Mercury retrograde...here I come..loving every minute of you.
