Okay it's coming up on that time again

Mercury retrograde is happening again. This time Mercury will station (appear to stand still) on August 4th 2024 9:56 pm Pacific Time, but I'm going to advise that anything you are working on that can be characterized as "forward progress" be paused starting July 27th. The time to back up your computers is *now* and I suggest that anything you have that's important on cloud services? copy it to a portable hard drive. We've seen what Crowd Strike did to big businesses; don't let that be your portfolio, your manuscript, your archives, your photo album. Get it local. Cloud just means somebody else's computer.

DO NOT SIGN CONTRACTS DURING MERCURY RETROGRADE. Get them sewn up this week or wait until the end of August. PLAN FOR DELAYS DURING TRAVEL. Don't pack anything of particular value if you must travel.

August 4th is also a new moon in Leo and that's usually the time to start new projects. but take heart - there's a workaround. Mercury retrograde is a great time to do do-overs, reviews, repeats, and throwbacks.

So this is the secret to how you start things during a mercury retrograde and see success--do a re-start.

for activities to "return" to during mercury retrograde, you can look at your own natal chart and see what house mercury is in when it begins retrograde at 4 degrees virgo, then when it enters leo on August.

Since Mercury will be in virgo when it stations direct, this is a good time to review your work stuff. Look at your projects, evaluate them, look for missing details. Make records, and BACK STUFF UP. Tempers are going to flare in your everyday work--organize your stuff, gather your receipts, stay gracious. File your paper clutter. Update your spreadsheets. Look for subscriptions for stuff you don't need or want and cancel them.

Old health routines are a great re-start when mercury goes retrograde in Virgo. Go back to eating more plants, try that thyroid supporting eating style again. Get the yoga mat back out. Duswt off your kettlebells. Go on a dumb little walk for your stupid mental health - something that you were doing for your health in the past, but stopped doing.

Special highlight day! on the evening (USA) of Wednesday August 7th mercury and venus will be conjunct in virgo, and so on this day and thursday, it could be a good time to socialize, especially if you're catching up with someone you haven't seen in a long time.

On August 15, Mercury will go into Leo. This is when you go back to your hobbies, leisure, fun, creativity, romance, and children. If you took an old course about how to express yourself or for leadership, charisma, personal improvement, personal brand, etc. This is a great time to go back to those courses and review them with the experience you have now.

If you have old writing, this is a good time to go back and see if you need to revise or rewrite.

If you used to do a hobby or art but you haven't in a while, mercury retrograde is a good time to come back to it. If you were decluttering and then life happened, Mercury retrograde is a good time to declutter - and I'm going to suggest, since Mercury is going into Leo on August 15, that you mark that as the time to declutter your clothes and hobby supplies.

This is a shitty time to start a new investment! but it is a good time to analyse where your money is going (horrifying, I know) This is when you'll see that you're spending a lot of your money on candles, and be more able to see clearly that it's becoming a problem.

This is an awesome time to go on a "no buy" challenge around your hobbies. Fiber artist? work from stash, and make something you have made before that you really liked. Fashionista? No new clothes. (I said *new* clothes. Consignment, vintage, thrift, and swaps are technically not new clothes, but don't go wild.)

Mercury stations and turns direct on August 28, 2024, resuming forward motion again, and will have passsed completely out of the retrograde degrees on the evening (USA) of September 11, 2024.\

That's it babes, you've got this

Mercury Retrograde 2023 for Writers

Mercury is going retrograde late on Tuesday, Dec 12. Back up whatever you need to back up now.

But honestly mercury retrogrades arent total disaster, hide in your bed until it's over. I would wait to sign a contract or agreement until after mercury goes direct on January 1, but if you have anything that has to do with the suffix re, this is the time.

revise a story, or

rewrite one with a better vision.

re evaluate your project planning for the next quarter.

review your 2023 and compassionately evaluate it.

revisit old ideas that you set aside.

Mercury is going back. You should too. When mercury turns direct on January 1st, you'll be ready to look forward, refreshed with a better awareness of what you did before.

But don't feel like you are messing up if your plan isn't going smoothly right from the crack of January 1st! The morning of January 11 will be the new moon in Capricorn, and you will have seen some of the complications of your grand resolutions after the first week. Take time to adjust your plan to whatever gives you practical, sustainable results, and take advantage of the do-over first thing Thursday morning.

If you would like a talisman through mercury retrograde, choose yellow, purple, citrines, peppermint, or feathers.
