We
hate
to
break
it
to
you
but
Mercury
retrograde
is
back.
Sorry!
Fortunately,
Stephanie
Gailing,
astrologer
and
author
of
the
book,
The
Complete
Guide
to
Living
by
the
Moon, shared
with
E!
News
what we
can
expect during
the
Mercury
retrograde and
what
can
be
done
to
survive
it.
What
Is
Mercury
in
Retrograde?
Just
a
little
refresher,
Mercury
goes
retrograde
about
three
to
four
times
a
year,
and
when
a
planet
goes
retrograde,
it
slows
down
and
gives
the
appearance
of
moving
backwards
in
the
sky.
Since
the
planet
Mercury
is
associated
with
communication,
travel,
commerce,
and
information,
you
may
experience
delays,
misunderstandings,
issues
with
phones
and
computers,
and
pretty
much
anything
and
everything
that
has
to
do
with
those
areas.
Negative
energy
alert.
What
to
Expect
During
Mercury
Retrograde
August
2024
This
fall’s
Mercury
Retrograde
will
last
from
November
25
to
December
15,
and
occurs
in
the
astrology
sign
of
Sagittarius.
But,
since
Mercury
is
usually
ruled
by
Gemini
(Sagittarius’
sister
sign),
there
may
be
some
heightened
effects
of
the
move
and
those
signs
might
experience
communication
a
little
more
intensely
(think
big
picture
reveals).
Gailing
advises, “It
can
be
a
great
time
to
go
back
to
a
conversation
you
had
previously—whether
with
a
lover,
friend
or
client—and
clean
up
misunderstandings
you
may
have
had.”
