Meditation for Mercury Retrograde

 

Mercury, among other things, represents the mind.

Your mind is like a personal antenna that transmits and receives information. It can to tune into, amplify and send out any thought.

Your thoughts directly impact your emotions (Moon), your behavior and actions (Mars), what life experiences you attract (Venus), your life path (Sun), your luck (Jupiter) and your karma (Saturn). Your quality of life literally depends on your ability to use the power of your mind. 

To control your mind is to control your destiny.This is why it is so important to be selective of the thoughts you pay attention to.

What thoughts do you choose to focus on?

We have all experienced negative outcomes from acting on negative thoughts at some point in our lives. I know I have. But it isn’t about wishing negative thoughts away. We can’t actually get rid of them. Even the Dali Lama admits to getting angry many times a day. But we can choose not to act on them.

Yogi Bhajan said we have just 3-5 seconds to process and release negative thoughts before they create karma for us. That’s nothing, a few blinks or a breath of fresh air. It can pass before you grab it.

How do we control our mind to take advantage of such a tiny moment?
You need mental self-discipline. The Mind is a Muscle that needs training. This training requires time, discipline and devotion.

But getting started is simple. Do a 5 minute meditation today.
