We’re now in Mercury’s retrograde twilight zone; the real action starts on September 9. This may be a rough journey for some (hello, Libra), but the good news is that four other zodiac signs will have it much easier.
As Mercury moves through a few zodiac signs in reverse during its retrograde phase, it appears to be moving backward. Beginning in Libra, the retrograde will go backward through Virgo until October 2. Mercury is the planet of communication, so misunderstandings, broken gadgets, and plans that don’t go as planned are all pretty normal.
It’s common for people to revert to old habits that no longer benefit them or to rekindle relationships with people who no longer make them happy while Mercury is in retrograde.
while everyone will feel some degree of this energy’s impact, some will feel it more strongly than others. I’ve included the least impacted groups in the table below.
Scorpio
You won’t feel the effects of this retrograde quite as strongly as normal since it will spend most of its time in your 12th house, where things tend to be more peaceful. Therefore, it’s a good moment for you to reflect within and open up to your inner wisdom. Give credence to your intuition.
Taurus
The last several months have been, well, interesting for you. The timing is right to relax and recharge your batteries. Because you are so accustomed to predictability, the slightest disruption might put you completely off course. You need the retrograde’s slower pace right now since it gives you an opportunity to relax and unwind.
Leo
The summer season, in which you may truly shine, is drawing to a close. Right now is an excellent opportunity to pause, take stock of the last few months, and rethink your priorities. In addition, this is an opportunity to discover calm within the storm.
Aquarius
Even though this retrograde will be less challenging for you, it will still have an impact. In spite of its seeming drawbacks, this time might prove to be immensely useful for you by allowing you to examine your most fundamental assumptions and ideals and rethink your place in the world. For you, the revolutionary Zodiac sign, this is standard fare, so if you approach this retrograde with an honest mindset, it will be beneficial.
