Last time we had Mercury turn retrograde on election day was 2000, and we all know how that turned out.

As posted above, winning the election and being inaugurated are two different things.

BUT....this may be a time for karma kickback on the 2000 sElection and resulting 8-year catastrophe. I for one don't expect our work to end on election day, but rather to just be beginning!

I don't remember if we had early voting back in 2000 but it seems it would make a difference if a lot of the voting happened out of mercury retrogrades range.

When I realized Mercury would be turning retro on election day, I decided I'll vote early. I have a couple days off next week so will try to get to it then.

I'm also encouraging people who registered to vote this year to check their registrations and vote early, so if their registrations got "lost" they'll have time to get it done!

Apparently...based on numerology...another win forecast.
