Here’s a crash course on Mercury in retrograde … (July 7 to July 31, 2019).
Mercury is the planet that governs all types of Communication, as master astrologer Susan Miller www.astrologyzone.com/  elaborates this includes, “listening, speaking, learning, reading, editing, researching, negotiating, selling, and buying. Mercury also rules all formal contracts and agreements, as well as important documents such as book manuscripts or term papers, agreements, deeds, contracts, leases, wills, and so forth.”

Included under this planet’s domain are all types of code, including computer codes, as well as transportation, shipping, and travel. When this planet retrogrades, these areas tend to get scrambled or spin out of control.”

When a planet is retrograde, in particular, Mercury, you can think of it as working in reverse.

Mercury Retro dates for the next year are:

July 7 – July 31, 2019

October 31 – November 20, 2019

February 18 – March 9, 2020

The closest I have ever come to astrology would be reading my stars in the local paper! Though my grandmother was right into astrology. You may ask, why write about Mercury Retrograde? Well, I’ve just become aware it has become more mainstream—largely because the mercury retrograde can be such a pain in the neck.

Plus, I’ve found it can be a lot of fun and really interesting to talk about it.
So, apparently, there are things you should possibly not do during Mercury Retrograde (leading up to and a few days after).

No product launches. Launch when the stars are in your favour.

Best not “officially” start a new romantic relationship. It’s only a few weeks!

Maybe don’t sign a contract – you can negotiate and agree in principle, but not execute a legally binding document.

No buying tech gear or major equipment.

Should you travel? I read yes travel but avoid paying for flights etc. during this time.

Oh my … Again I read if you really wish to get aligned, don’t do major communications for about a week BEFORE and AFTER Mercury Retrograde. Its energy has a lead-up and a hangover effect.

No need to live in fear of Mercury Retrograde! Just be aware that it has an effect. Let’s face it sometimes you’ve got to do what you have to do!
You get to choose your attitude about it. Blessing or a curse?

There are many benefits of Mercury Retrograde—so maybe we should work with it:

Clear stuff out, bring what you don’t need to the thrift store.

Connect with people from your past. (Watch who appears during Mercury Retrograde)

Resolve the things in your life.

Write about your past. Look at what you have learned. Give thanks.

This is a GREAT time to be asking yourself: What worked? What didn’t? What did you learn? How did you grow? What are you thankful for?

You can then move on. Wiser and brighter, until the next Mercury Retrograde from October 31 – November 20, 2019.

At least I’m a little more prepared …
