About Mercury Retrograde
Mercury retrograde is an optical illusion that occurs 3-4 times per year when Mercury appears to move backward in its orbit as seen from Earth. This phenomenon lasts about 3 weeks each time.
In astrology, Mercury rules communication, technology, travel, and contracts. During retrograde periods, these areas are believed to experience disruptions, miscommunications, and delays.
While Mercury retrograde has a bad reputation, it's actually a great time for activities that begin with "re-": review, revise, reconnect, reflect, and redo.
