Mercury Retrograde in Libra
September 24th to October 16th ..
It sure seems like Mercury is retrograde all the time, but actually it's just three times a year for a duration of three weeks each time. Still it can wreak havoc.
This is a time when communication mix ups are most likely, so double check all correspondence before sending, be clear on arrangements of all types and agreements, whether they're personal or business.
Forewarned is forearmed with Mercury retrograde! Reading the fine print and double checking all plans can catch an error. Haste is often what creates problems during Mercury retrograde. Beware of offers where you must act NOW! It's the recipe for disaster at this time. Even though you're feeling rushed and perhaps overwhelmed, take the time to do things more thoroughly than usual! It'll payoff in the long run.
Computers, cars, cell phones, printers (and other communication and high tech devices) seem to be particular targets of this mischevious energy. Certainly not a good time to make a purchase of one of those .. wait until Mercury goes direct if you can.
We feel the effects of Mercury retrograde (appearing to move backwards) for DAYS before it actually happens, and the effect is still in full force on the day it turns direct again. For any purchase or new situation that you're initiating, make sure to allow a wide berth of at least 5 days on either side of the exact dates of the Mercury Retrograde to avoid trouble.
But there's good news too! Every astrological energy has a good use ..... you just gotta find it.
Libra is the relationship sign .. so people and relationships are highlighted during this retrograde and because there's also a New Moon in Libra on Monday morning (more to come on that later). It's a great time to make amends, or fix things that happened in the past in relationships. Retrograde is always an effective time to re-do, repeat or re-try something that didn't quite work out the first time. It gives us the chance to tweak something that already exists, and make it better .. the "better mousetrap" is most likely reformulated during a Mercury retrograde.
This is a fabulous time to 'catch up' on projects, correspondence and things that have gone neglected. Make that list and check them off during Mercury retrograde. You'll get a lot done.
And one last thought on this Mercury retrograde. Neptune, the planet which rules spirituality, self deception, drugs and alcohol, not seeing things clearly and creativity is making a big impression on Mercury .. so Mercury will carry Neptune's energy with it. This means that any of those possiblities will be accentuated during this time.
Mercury in aspect to Neptune can be very romantic .. because you're not seeing 'warts and all' .. you're just looking at things through 'rose colored glasses'. Be careful of denial now .. confusion is also a possibility and so is downright deceit .. but a connection with the divine and spiritual, prayer and creative ventures are the most positive use of this particular Mercury transit. By emphasizing one type of energy you can often divert the energy from being used in a less desirable way.
Understanding how the astrological transits work and how they impact you makes all the difference between a good and bad mercury retrograde!
