~MERCURY RETROGRADE SEPTEMBER 2009~


~Mercury Retrograde~

Here we go again...

Ah yes, another Mercury Retrograde is about to begin. This Retrograde begins September 7, lasting through to September 29th, 2009. Mercury Retrograde is notorious for bringing the old saying of "If Something Can Go Wrong, It Will" to the forefront. During this phase the planet of Mercury which rules communication does what appears to begin to travel backwards. It really doesn't move backwards but the optical illusion is no less easier on how the slowing of this planet effects our everyday life.


Some things to consider during a Mercury Retrograde:


Avoid signing legal documents

Avoid closing big deals

Avoid large purchases

Backup your computer BEFORE the retrograde begins.

Avoid buying or making repairs to major electronics or appliances

Give yourself extra time for traveling

Avoid beginning "New" relationships


I like to say that anything of true significance that is started during a Mercury Retrograde has the tendency to "turn to dust" when the Retrograde ends. So consider this if you are in the midst of beginning a new relationship or even discussing making changes to one that you're in. One example would be to wait until after the Retrograde to reconnect or make any reconciliation in a relationship as the relationship can quickly end or fizzle after the Retrograde ends.


Mercury Retrograde however doesn't always have to appear to be a negative thing though. This is the perfect time to do anything that may need to be revamped or reworked. Organizing your home, following up on projects and catching up on paperwork are all ideal things to get moving on during this time.


This particular Retrograde is in Libra and Virgo. So this transit may have a stronger effect on those particular signs.
