Are we repeating ourselves, or is a lot of drama coming into your life? Guess what, Mecury is in RETROGRADE!
Mercury is in retrograde again, but what does that actually mean? Astrology sites and followers commonly preach the negative consequences of the planetary shift when Mercury enters retrograde. From technology issues to becoming overly-emotional, the said effects are endless. Here’s what you need to know as Mercury enters Retrograde again, and how you can make sure it’s not affecting you too much.
The planet Mercury rules communication, travel, contracts, automobiles, and such.
So, when Mercury is retrograde, remain flexible, allow extra time for travel, and avoid signing contracts. Double check your email responses, check in with reservations before you take that trip.
Review projects and plans at these times, but wait until Mercury is direct again to make any final decisions. You can’t stop your life, but plan ahead, have back-up plans, and be prepared for angrier people and miscommunication.
Some people blame Mercury retrograde for “bad” things that happen in their lives. Instead, this is a good time to sit back and review where you put your energy in your life. For example, if family and faith are important to you, are you putting your energies there or just overextended in other areas?
Take a moment to reflect. Mercury retrograde can be an excellent time to take a step back and reanalyze who you are and what you are doing—but do refrain from making any drastic changes until after retrograde has ended.
