In
my eclectic business, I encounter a lot of different
people. But one thing is always consistent.
Everyone is effected by the MERCURY RETROGRADE. The
planet Mercury rules communication, travel, and technology
- so all of these areas go haywire for about three weeks
several times a year. Knowing the cycle helps you
deal with the effects and helps you feel somewhat in
control : ). You can't stop it but you can handle it!
Ever
wonder why some periods the your life seem out of control?
Computer
freezes
Your cell phone drops an important phone call
A lot of construction
A lot of accidents
A lot of communication breakdown
We
know what you're experiencing and why it's happening!
The
planet Mercury is Retrograding (appearing to spin
backward) on it's trek around the sun. The planet Mercury rules intelligence, communication,
language, memory, creative expression and mind and
interconnecting thoughts.
As you know, all planets revolve around the sun. When a
planet goes retrograde, it appears to be moving
backward from the Earth's perspective, but in reality a
planet never really goes backward.
The silver lining? Mercury retrograde is a great
opportunity to handle unfinished business. Most of us
start a million things that we don’t complete, never
realizing how much psychic clutter this creates. The
retrograde is like a quarterly review, a chance to tie up
those loose ends and create a clear vision for the future.
Take advantage of it, and you’ll emerge fresh and ready
when Mercury goes direct. As the cliché goes, what you
resist-persists. So the more you can embrace having zero
control (and isn't control an illusion, anyhow?), the
better you'll survive this cycle.
The
planet Mercury Retrogrades several times a year.
When
Mercury moves toward retrograde. you'll notice your memory
slipping, work will become a sluggish grind,
miscommunication will run rampant, a lot of construction
and accidents. It is not a good idea to sign legal
contracts, buy a house or make any binding legal
decisions.
When
planet Mercury goes Direct
You
will experience a time of greater accomplishments, clear
communication and decisive actions. This is a good time to
make that deal, begin and maintain a romance and
communicate your ideas clearly and concisely. Your
computer starts to obey, cell phone calls actually don't
get drop, people hear what you say and actually understand
you, days seem to run
smoothly. Mercury is direct!
Until . . . the next retrograde. SO BE READY!

Mercury Retrograde Guide
Remember the effects of the Mercury Retrograde are
felt three week before and three week
after. Like a wave, it starts to shadow (wax
or gain momentum) for about three
weeks prior to the time the retrograde actually
begins. It Retrogrades (or peaks) for three weeks.
Then it
will be erratic (wane or fade away) over a period of
about another three
weeks. So be prepared to feel Mercury's
effects for a total of almost nine
weeks. This charts show the days Mercury is in
the shadow, erratic and retrograde.
- The
yellow shaded days are when Mercury is
Retrograde in 2010
- The
days marked in red
are erratic when Mercury moves very slowly.
- The
days with gray background are in the Shadow
period (waxing and waning)
