Mercury turns retrograde on March 22nd @ 17° Aries. Direct station occurs April 15th @ 5° Aries. Mercury enters shadow phase on March 9th.
Representative of our thought aptitude and perception, Mercury rules all forms of communications, methods of transport and commerce. During retrograde periods glitches can occur within communication systems, modes of transport and commerce related dealings.
On a personal level cognitive skills are often challenged and making decisions my require extra patience and time. While Mercury Rx periods are generally not considered favorable for making contractual agreements or committing oneself to new projects for anything begun from scratch during this time often needs to be reworked later or just doesn’t get off the ground at all.
Retrograde period is conducive to putting effort into ongoing projects through a whole slew of “RE-words” such as: reorganize, reedit, renegotiate, re-navigate, reformulate, reconsider, redefine, reprocess, reinstall etc, etc.
Often issues that crop up that we attribute to Mercury being retrograde tend to sort themselves away if we are patient and don’t complicate the issue further. No action can often be the best course during Mercury RX.
