Mercury Retrograde (What You Can Do)

AvatarHigh Priestess Lydia Coventina2 min to read

Mercury is in retrograde motion about 3 times a year, lasting for 3 weeks each time. Many members focus on the bad things about this period of time, but this happens to be an excellent time for certain things!

Mercury retrograde is the time to go through your computer documents and organize and reorganize anything that is required. Make sure you have all important ToZ files in order, sorted into correct files and so on. The same goes for your office desk and all other documents and paperwork.

For young people who share a computer with your parents, be very careful hiding files. It might be best to use a flash drive and keep anything “suspicious” off the computer.

This is also the time to go over any projects you are working on, and edit or revise anything. We can notice our own previously-made mistakes more during this time and fix and improve them.

If you had been working on any projects but put them aside for whatever reason, Mercury retrograde is the time to dig it out and review it, and make plans to continue with the project.

Any tedious paperwork you've been putting off, these retrograde periods are the best time to go through it all. Just don't sign anything, if at all possible.

This is also an excellent time for research. Gather information, make notes or links to everything you need.

However, the bad side can’t be ignored. Especially as this Mercury retrograde will last through the holiday season, and many people make travel plans during this season, and buy electronics on Boxing Day sales. Chances of things going wrong relating to these areas are higher.

If you don’t want to pass up the sales to buy electronics, then make sure to keep the receipt to return it if it malfunctions.

For travel plans, be aware that trips might be delayed or even canceled. I’m definitely not suggesting to cancel your plans because something might happen, but be mentally prepared that plans might change. Mental preparation reduces stress and anxiety.

And of course, Mercury retrograde causes miscommunication, which often happens in the forums during these retrograde periods. If you have to post something, go over it more carefully than usual, and know that some people might read it wrong regardless.

Mercury turns retrograde this December 13, so you have plenty of time to prepare :)

Thank you for another informative post! I am curious about something though. Miscommunication, troubles relating to purchased items, signatures and travel. The effects of Mercury retrograde sound very similar to the void of course Moon.

Is there a correlation between the two? Or could this just be a coincidence?

Hey Lydia, thanks for the article. I wonder what do you think about Placidius House System. Due to trapped house thing at some causes some planets do not run any signs which is imposible. Thats why i dont feel okay with Placidius system. Also, it seems for the signs western astrology, for the houses vedic astrology is more accurate. So i belive that using whole house system on western astrology could be a better option than Placidius. Whats your thoughts? Thanks.

Hello. Both HPS Pythia and myself looked into Vedic versus Western. Vedic has some good points but is overall not accurate.

Thanks for your reply. I know Vedic system has some cons, that's why i'm asking if using Vedic's house system on the Western's signs system which is nearly equal to whole house system can be more accurate?

How does a retrograde transit affect when someone has this planet retrograde in their natal chart like Mercury or Venus retrogrades?

I'm actually not sure, as this was some years ago that I looked into all this. Perhaps ask to the main forums or astrology forum to see if anyone else can answer :)

One of Mercury Retrograde's traits is the focus on details which can be good for what you said about working with details and organizing, but can sometimes make one miss the essential or misunderstand messages. Many of us have this in the natal chart and cause some problems in the first three decades of life.

Starting a new job, that's an agreement/contract between you and the employer/company, things are more likely to go wrong with Mercury retrograde. That doesn't mean we should avoid starting a new job, but things are more likely to not work out.

Since they had no good justification, you can take it up with whatever worker's rights is in your country to see if you can get your job back.

Depending on the circumstances, it's also possible to file a lawsuit. Happened to some one I know that worked at McDonalds, managed to bank $200,000 from it. However, it has to be clearly proven ones rights were violated.

The planets affect us in many ways. It's mainly subconsciously, as it's the basis towards all outcomes. Those who're unaware of it are more susceptible than those that aren't.

Anyway, I had some plans regarding personal business but seams I will have to postpone them for now. Having taken the opportunity to prepare and research beforehand has been beneficial as I have a broader scope rather than just learning while doing.

The retrogade lasts until January 1, 2024, right after new years eve. What matters during this period is that you go over everything as things have a tendency to change during/after retrogade.

Mercury isn't the only planet that should be taken into account regarding work as Mars rules over this as well. Other planets can also be involved, especially regarding the type of job you do. But mars is in a decent sign though.

Hope it works out for you, let me know how it goes :D

If there's no other option, then you have to do it. Make sure to read everything carefully, make sure all signatures are correct and nothing was missed, etc. Essentially, pay extra attention to everything.

And then after the retro, do a double check on everything. Something might have been missed, for example.

I will. This may be an odd thought, but are there scenarios where a mercury retrograde can work in your favor?

For example, I am worried about my debt to income ratio being a turn off to the broker, yet there is a chance it is fine, which is why I am trying in the first place. But could the retrograde make them rush through it or even miss things in my favor, or is it always at ones expense?

There is a chance of that happening, but it's not something that can be counted on.

Also, if the broker has natal Mercury retrograde, he might pay more attention during this time because people with natal MercRx operate better when transiting Merc is Rx.
