Mercury retrograde ~ April 9 - May 3, 2017

Theme: Changes, Errors, Chaos, Insights, Re-doing and Transformation.

As the planet of communication and intellect goes retrograde, misunderstandings, disruptions, breakdowns, and complications are bound to happen.


This time Mercury retrogrades through Taurus and Aries, and a key for any solution lies in understanding the Zodiac signs where this little drama takes place. When in the sign of Taurus a shift in values and self-worth is prominent. Taurus also governs banking, so it's wise to delay money matters. Instead use this time to review financial affairs and position yourself for personal growth.

Later in the fire sign Aries, frustration is to be expected. Assertive and
 impulsive Aries wants to move
 ahead, and all of that energy is now going backward, or from an Aries perspective - nowhere. It's wise to watch what you say and how you say it. Instead pay attention to what people are saying to you, it might be a pleasant surprise.

There is however a much deeper and more meaningful purpose to each Mercury retrograde. It is an opportunity to reflect and gain insight as well as revisiting and reconnecting with people, projects, and circumstances from the past. Know, that these periods can be times of heightened inner awareness if we allow them to be.
