Is the Mercury retrograde responsible for warming the cold war between Nas and Kelis? Has the estranged couple started reconsidering their divorce proceedings, or is this just the quiet before the storm? What

do the planets indicate?

At this very moment, communication-planet Mercury is changing directions after being retrograde for the past 3 weeks. While this planet goes on ‘hiatus,’ conversations, court proceedings, clear thinking, travel arrangements and your daily schedule has enormous interference, delays and problems. When certain planets go retrograde, unexpected things tend to happen. A retrograde Mercury at best, gives you the opportunity to rethink your present positions and explore different approaches to your issues.

Close sources of the embattled hip hop couple report that things appear to be thawing between them and the standoff they’ve had since Kelis filed for divorce a few weeks ago is beginning to soften. Their relationship has been clouded in the controversy of infidelity and betrayal from almost the very beginning. The cosmic profiles of Nas and Kelis reveal some very interesting things in terms of whether or not they can try to work things out and continue to hold on to their six year marriage.

Kelis, a Leo, born on Aug. 21, 1979 and has an abundance of planets in the sign of Leo, suggesting that she likes being in the leadership position, she enjoys the spotlight, she can be driven by her pride and that she can indeed be ‘bossy!’ According to her astrology chart her life is now being tested as she under goes major psychological changes. Saturn, the planet of maturity requires that she choose a different direction for her life and accept greater responsibility. Saturn is also the planet of karma, meaning that what has been done in the past will come back to revisit you! Kelis, bringing a child in the world will without a doubt change her views, as it makes her see things differently! But, with Kelis’ planet Mars in the nurturing sign of Cancer, her home and her marriage means a great deal to her, so something quite unforgivable had to have bruised her pride to push her to file papers for divorce.

Nas, a Virgo, born on Sept. 14, 1973 has a Moon in the ‘forever curious’ sign of Aries suggesting that he likes constant change when it comes to partnership or a mate who is changeable and unpredictable. If not, boredom sets in and there can be fidelity issues in love. In addition, he likes having he last word in any situation. Hopefully the planet Mercury has allowed both parties to reconsider their course of action if there is any love left in their union. The planets indicate that even if things are reunited between these two this year, next year can bring even greater challenges to their marriage. Some things when broken are never quite the same.
