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. This phenomenon lasts about 3 weeks each time.
In astrology, Mercury rules communication, technology, travel, and contracts. During retrograde, these areas may experience disruptions. It's actually a great time for activities that begin with "re-": review, revise, reconnect, and reflect.
