Know that Mercury retrogrades every 88 days, or more or less 3 times a year.
From April 1 to 25: Mercury retrograde in Aries
Aries is a Fire sign and therefore a sign of action. It is also a symbol of energy, speed, spontaneity, even immaturity. Indeed, Aries has a tendency to rush forward without thinking, even if it means turning back if they made a mistake in order to start again elsewhere. At least he acts, he moves, he tries, he tries...
Usually, therefore, with the influence of Aries, we rush headlong, but not this time! Mercury retrograde forces us to hit the brakes. We're going to play it a little cooler, think before jumping into the arena.
Less cookie-cutter blabbering, we are a little less spontaneous, less superficial, more patient. We might slow down a little, but hey, we're going to dig deeper and that's important! This will allow us to build on solid ground afterwards. Indeed, let's not forget that Mercury is the star of reflection. When he is retrograde he therefore insists on thinking, taking a step back and considering all the possibilities of action and the situation before moving forward. This Mercury retrograde will therefore slow us down, but it is for a good cause, to prevent us from falling into the little faults of Aries: haste, impatience or even carelessness.
A two-phase downgrade
- Between April 10 and 12, Mercury retrograde will be Conjunct the Sun in Aries: it will further impact us in our actions and our professional decision-making.
- Between the 18th and 21st, Mercury retrograde will be Conjunct Venus in Aries: it will act more in our emotional relationships. We will have to be careful not to speak too quickly, make false promises or get involved with a person without thinking, despite a crush…
What are the astrological signs most impacted by Mercury retrograde in Aries?
All astrological signs should remain cautious and patient during the period of Mercury retrograde. However, in April, some will be much more affected than others, these are Aries, Libra, Cancer, Capricorn, Virgo and Gemini. If your ascendant is in one of these signs, the influence could also be strongly felt. And if you don't yet know your ascendant, calculate it for free.
From August 5 to 28: Mercury retrogrades in Virgo then in Leo So, hang in there!
Mercury will make a mess of our daily routine.
If your toaster decides to give up the ghost, your car breaks down, the train is late, or customer service leaves you in circles, take a deep breath.
It's just Mercury testing our zen attitude. The best thing to do here is to take a deep breath and put things into perspective, after all, yes it's annoying but no one died.
From August 16, we go into surgical precision mode, we are more measured, more timid, more precise. We're going to want to control everything, refine the details, and delegate? Pff, not even in a dream! We might lose some of our mojo, but we'll be so friendly and helpful that no one will blame us.
From November 26 to December 15: Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius
To end the year in style, Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius will play tricks on us on the road. Breakdowns, strikes, GPS wandering... Prepare for adventure! And if you are in the middle of learning or training, expect some twists and turns.
But don't panic, we are warriors, we will handle this like pros!
Be particularly vigilant when Mercury retrogrades, put all the chances on your side, monitor your accounts, your invoices, plan a plan B, etc. Come on, keep smiling, stay flexible and everything will be fine. After all, it's not Mercury that's going to dictate our good mood, is it? Come on, let’s breathe and move forward!
💫 So yes, Mercury retrograde, it's always a bit annoying but see it as a chance to slow down to realign your thoughts with your actions. It's the perfect time to reflect on yourself, your desires, your deep desires and take the time to refine your projects and dreams.
Find strength in pause, wisdom in silence. Let this time teach you the art of patience and the virtue of reflection. Embrace challenges as invitations to grow, and turn unexpected events into springboards toward a deeper understanding of yourself.
