Mercury Retrograde And How It Will Affect Us ~Pisces March 2019
 |
| Mercury Retrograde March 5,2019 |
1. What does “retrograde” really mean?
When Mercury is in retrograde, it’s orbit around the sun is just slowing down. From Earth, it looks like it’s going backwards, but sadly (as cool as that would be) it’s not actually going backwards. It’s like watching a car that was going faster than you slow down while you continue at the same speed. It looks like that other car is going backwards, when really it just changed its speed. So while Mercury decides to take a little nap for about 3 weeks, everything the planet rules over goes haywire.
2. What does Mercury do?
Mercury is responsible for many important things, including communication, travel/transportation, coding, electricity, contracts, and trade. Also, Mercury is the ancient Roman name for the god Hermes, who, like the planet in retrograde, is widely known for being a trickster and having generally mischievous behavior.
3. When is the next Mercury retrograde?
The next Mercury retrograde will happen between NOW March 5th 2019 for the next 3 weeks, so buy your sage now and start preparing for the retrograde madness.
4. What to expect and how to handle it
What happens during this period and how we are affected greatly depends on what sign we are in when Mercury begins its retrograde. These Pisces traits that at this time will be emphasized even more in everyone. You may also find yourself being more impatient than normal. A retrograde will spark very intense emotions in all of us, which combined with the temporarily wonky communication skills we’ll most likely have, do not add up to a great conversation. This may cause rough patches between you and your friends or significant other.
5. How to turn the retrograde into a positive
No matter when Mercury is in retrograde, a good “safety” tip is to have plenty of backup plans and to always leave extra time for travel. Mercury likes to screw with coding and transportation, so things like subways might be even more temperamental than usual. It’s hard to tell just what Mercury will mess with on any given day, but it is definitely a good idea to have more than just a “Plan A” while it’s on vacation. While you can’t put your life on hold just because some planet decided to take 3 weeks off on it’s job, you can take this time to be reflective and go over all the plans you may have.
