There Goes Mercury Retrograde Again!
Three to four times a year, Mercury goes retrograde. Retrograde to an astrologer means that the planet looks like it is going backwards. This is due to the length of its orbital path compared to the Earth's.
To some it would seem that during this period, communications break down. Mechanical things go awry. Creativitity takes an inward turn.
This thread is to alert you to the upcoming Mercury retrogrades if you are someone who does believe that it can be a bit messy during Mercury's little backward stroll around our planet.
If you are not someone who thinks this, that's okay too. There are plenty of threads to start about how you are NOT affected by Mercury's retrograde.
The 2010 Mercury Retrogrades are:
December 26, 2009 at 21 Capricorn
Mercury turns direct January 15, 2010 at 5 Capricorn
Mercury turns retrograde April 18 at 12 Taurus
Mercury turns direct May 11 at 2 Taurus
Mercury turns retrograde August 20 at 19 Virgo
Mercury turns direct September 12 at 5 Virgo
Mercury turns retrograde December 10 at 5 Capricorn
Mercury turns direct December 30 at 19 Sagittarius
All the retrogrades this coming year (including the one that starts on Saturday of this week) are in Earth signs. This year's were in Air.
