Book Description

April 1, 2002
Your cell phone dies. Your package never arrives. Your signed contract turns into a disaster. You fight with friends and lovers and have the feeling you're just not getting through. But it's not happening to you alone. Phone companies and computer help desks across the country receive more repair calls during Mercury retrograde than at any other time during the year. Approximately four times a year, Mercury, the planet of communication, goes retrograde - appears to move backward - and chaos ensues. Until now, MERCURY RETROGRADE explains why things go a little crazy during these most volatile astrological times and offers advice for readers looking to protect themselves - and even flourish! Written in a lively and entertaining style for the astrological layperson, this is one of the first books on the market completely devoted to this astrological phenomenon.


Editorial Reviews

Review

Chrissie Blaze is not only an outstanding astrologer with a unique depth and insight into this much misunderstood subject, but also a brilliant communicator who makes this valuable information accessible and engaging - as is demonstrated in this fantastic book.Richard Lawrence, world teacher/author, Gods, Guides and Guardian AngelsYou must have noticed those days when it just doesn't glue together? It seems that now we have a chance to get hold of a better perspective on why it goes peanut and jelly side down - at last; we know why and how it works.Use Chrissie's book to minimize the back-wash of Mercury Retrograde. Mike Allen. Smooth Radio 102.2 London. Great BritainIn Mercury Retrograde, author Chrissie Blaze makes the enigmatic understandable. Having observed the effects of mercury retrograde in my own life over the past three decades, effecting communications, contracts, machinery and new projects, one is well advised to take Blaze's suggestions of how best to utilize, rather than be victimized, by this quarterly astronomical phenomena. When attended to, as Blaze makes clear in her wonderful book, Mercury Retrograde can assist us in finishing old projects, in becoming masters of detail or if nothing else, becoming astute observers of this and other events which astrology has examined for thousands of years. Thank you Chrissie Blaze for offering such a lucid exploration of the challenges and benefits of Mercury Retrograde. J. Zohara Meyerhoff Hieronimus, USA, Author, Broadcaster, Photographer and Integrative Medicine Pioneer www.zoharaonline.comChrissie Blaze's book on Mercury Retrograde is extremely helpful when scheduling events and making plans. She has not only described the types of things that happen but also how to use these periods each year in a very positive and spiritual way, as a time of renewal and reflection. This is a brilliant guidebook that everyone should have. Dr. John Holder, Chairman, The Mind-Body-Spirit Festivals, U.K. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blazing through Mercury Trials and Tribulations, August 4, 2002
This review is from: Mercury Retrograde: Your Survival Guide to Astrology's Most Precarious Time of the Year! (Paperback)
Understanding Mercury Retrograde is important for all astrologers, because as we know, the phone starts to ring off the hook the day this pesky little planet goes backwards (from our perspective) in the sky! Since we are currently doomed to deal with this phenomenon 3 times a year, it pays to brush up on the meaning of Mercury Retrogrades and find as many positive ways to deal with it as possible. I think astrologers will find Chrissie's book particularly handy because it has tables in the back for quick reference and it tells each Sun Sign how to survive! You can even recommend it to your clients because it is so easy to navigate through and understand. It is demanding work to write about Mercury Retrograde and I think Chrissie has done a great job!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Eagerly Awaited Book, May 7, 2002
By 
Katrina Ure (Los Angeles, CA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mercury Retrograde: Your Survival Guide to Astrology's Most Precarious Time of the Year! (Paperback)
There are forces of destiny in our lives that go beyond chance, like astrology. Everyone is affected by Mercury Retrograde. Chrissie Blaze gives us an effective and practical way of handling its disruptive influence, and even turning it into a gift. Infact, she shows us the Cosmic purpose of Mercury Retrograde - and how to utilize it to produce a happier, more fulfilling life. With the law of karma, one learns that what was once considered inevitable and fated, can infact be changed... and so too the influence of Mercury Retrograde. Chrissie writes with clarity and simplicity of an ancient science that has increasingly of late become all too complex and mathematical. This is a fun, practical, meaningful and eagerly awaited book!

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this book!, April 30, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Mercury Retrograde: Your Survival Guide to Astrology's Most Precarious Time of the Year! (Paperback)
I couldn't put this book down, it is really fascinating. I always have a tough time during Mercury Retrograde, perhaps because I'm a Gemini. I wanted to get this before the next period starts in May just to see if it would help. I have read all the books I can find on Mercury Retrograde and I liked them, but they didn't really help me to survive these times. But this one really offers great, practical and fun advice which I feel confident is going to work. I am actually looking forward to Mercury Retrograde and already have a list of things that I am saving up to do during this time. Things I would not have thought about before. So, yes, this is a great book and I highly recommend it!
