Sagittarius is mutable fire sign. Maybe not the best fire, that’s usually
Leo, but
we are companionable. Recent eclipse action, Virgo/Pisces then Virgo/Virgo (opposite Saturn/Neptune)? That paved the way for some new deconstruction, reconstruction. That’s what this is about as Retrograde Mercury dips from fiery Sagittarius back into watery Scorpio, then forward again, culminating at almost the same time as the Sun crosses into Capricorn, the Winter Solstice.
Back in the bad, old days, I used a product as a gasket sealer, called — don’t know the name. It was yellow, branded with a Yamaha tube, nasty kind of glue that withstood engine heats. Used it on European motorcycles because it worked better than anything else.
It was nasty stuff. Sickly yellow color. Probably no longer available, and possibly poisonous. But it worked, back then. Tear a motor down to pieces, then gradually reassemble it, and use that yellow Yamaha-brand gasket-sealer as part of the process.
We all need some possibly hazardous “gorilla snot” help glue this together — after Mercury goes direct and gets back to its starting point.
