I don’t know about you all, but Mercury Retrograde has reared its angry little head early for me this week. The worst! So naturally, the only thing to do was distract myself with reading up on the news beneath the news.
(By the way, if anyone else wants to do a tarot reading for me on whether my hot water will be working again by tomorrow morning, I wouldn’t argue.)

What kind of stories does ‘Melissa’ want to spill?
Story 1: Somebody is making caaassshh behind closed doors with some shady business deals (Clouds, Fish). They are trying hard to keep the root of these profits secret (Anchor) to maintain the image of status quo. Something tells me it has to do with the media, since profit from communication was showing up (Fish, Letter). This might have something to do with their body or conversations about their body (Tree), or I don’t know…maybe something that happens to one’s body when they are expectant. But they are wanting to lock this story down and keep any news of side cashflows from leaking, for sure.
Story 2: Somebody else who is the man in the public eye is beginning to get very wobbly behind closed doors (Bird, Child). His stress is quite apparent now, but he’s scared about his loss of reputation (Garden, Coffin) and wishes he could withdraw from public life. This person is also worried about losing something or someone (Coffin, Bird) and is trying to stick it out publicly because they’re about to be a parent (Man, Child). Apparently, it ain’t so easy to hide once the cameras are off.
Story 3: Somebody is a truly, truly horrendous boss. There might have been a friendship and loyalty with that person to begin, but their overly dominant behaviour became exploitative and damaged this loyalty (Dog, Bear). That person has transitioned into a new role (Stork) and has become snarky, judgmental and extremely aggressive (Woman, Whip). The way that person was treating their employee was abhorrent, and now the power dynamics are beginning to shift (Stork, Bear).
Story 4: Looks like there might already be a third party in the marriage (Man, Crossroads), and the male figure is the one who has been philandering. This person has been really struggling, finding it difficult to sleep and has been fighting with conflicting emotions (Moon, Mountain). They are dutiful and feel bound by their responsibilities (Cross), but they have been quietly suffering and might have recently found someone else to lean on for support about this. They’re now faced with a problematic choice, but are pushing on out of a persistent feeling of duty (Cross, Mountains).
