Mercury is Retrograde: What It Means To You
It’s time (again!) to be extra careful in communications and decisions now that MERCURY is RETROGRADE Nov 25th – Dec 15th. Weird things tend to happen when Mercury travels Retrograde, (or apparently backwards): missteps, misunderstandings and reversals are more likely. Mercury Retrograde often presents obstacles we hadn’t anticipated. Or interrupts our plans. Or reverses our agreements. Or delivers new information that urges us to reconsider what we thought was already established. Problems with technology, travel, and scheduling can disturb our flow. However, doors can still open for you, even if even if matters are a bit messy. That’s because Mercury Retrograde is actually a golden opportunity to go over your recent actions and decisions to make sure they are right for you. It gives you time to reconsider. So take some time to go within, listen and reflect. What are you telling yourself? This Mercury Retrograde is in the Robustly-Opinionated sign of Sagittarius. This silver-tongued Mercury doesn’t beat around the bush: It urges us to state our thoughts directly, enthusiastically, with authority. It doesn’t mind delivering “zingers of truth” even if it ruffles feathers. Mercury Retro in Sagittarius urges us to reconsider the larger meaning of our lives. It concerns us with our future, ways we can expand, and determine what is morally right for us. Our thinking can have more big picture gusto and confidence. Used wisely, this Mercury Retro can help us express ourselves more directly and eloquently. And to deeply realize what truly inspires us going forward. But do avoid the downside of this Mercury which can trigger fiery debates based on assumptive righteousness or arrogant moral superiority. Some “heated discussions” might be better walked away from if opinions seem unwavering and closed to new input. Mercury in Sagittarius isn’t prone to backing down. The gift of Mercury’s back-and-forth motion is the extra attention and energy it brings to the area of our lives it aspects. It attracts more communications, ideas, decisions, and connections, including ones you may have missed. It also brings the opportunity to redo: reorganize, rethink, readdress, and rework matters. You’ll especially feel Mercury’s extended mental focus, communications, decision-making, but possible back-tracking on decisions and plans, in the area of your life ruled by Sagittarius in your Astrology chart. Let’s talk about where that is for you. I’ll tell you the best areas, times, and ways to use Mercury's back-and forth movement through mid-January. *Your Sun Sign also feels this Mercury Retrograde’s extended focus, added decision-making, but possible re-dos or interruptions of plans in a certain area. Read below for where that will be for your Sign. Some Mercury Retrograde Traits and Advice Communications can muddled (So be extra-clear and don’t assume others are on your same page.) Decision-making, Agreements and Contracts can become fuzzy or reverse. (Big decisions not recommended as changes of mind and reversals are common) Technology can fail or act very weird (leave room for interrupting snafu's) It's NOT a good time to buy or fix technology or autos, or anything, really. Travel plans can be interrupted or problematic (plan alternative routes) Also, considering that Action-Planet Mars will also be turning Retrograde on Dec. 6th It might not be time to initiate something completely new or try to push things to completion. That’s because Mars Retrograde also brings delays or turns of events that necessitate going over what we just did. Truly, Mars Retrograde is better for tackling steps we might have missed. And importantly, addressing matters we’ve been avoiding. Because of this, endeavors might take a little longer than planned to completely resolve or show their benefits. We Astrologers counsel it’s best to avoid making big decisions or take important actions while planets like Mercury and Mars are Retrograde as matters can take odd turns and/or turn out differently than planned. But life goes on, and we must, too. So do yourself a favor and work with the stars: Be patient with your decisions, communications and actions, and carefully double-check. And don’t force anything you don’t feel completely sure about. There might be more alternatives (and/or twists and turns) than you anticipated ahead. ** *Here’s Where Your Sun Sign feels Mercury Retrograde’s extended mental focus, ideas and communications, extra decision-making and discoveries of things missed.
