Riding the Mercury Retrograde Wave: Insights & Strategies

Remember how Venus has been retrograding during this intense Eclipse Season? Well, now Mercury is joining the party!

From March 14 until April 7th, Mercury, the great messenger of the zodiac, will betraveling backwards in the signs of Aries & Pisces.

It carries a very deep message for all of us: as we move forward in our lives and our vision, as we open up new chapters, we must be constantly checking in with ourselves, constantly reevaluating and revisiting things.

Because Mercury rulers communication and transportation, we can experience technology acting a little funky and more glitches. Mercury can be quite mischievous! He likes to pranks us: “Ha! Let me see if you’re really paying attention!”

Even though many people perceive Mercury RX periods to be chaotic, problematic and misfortunate, it certainly doesn’t have to be. There are very simple measures we can take to avoid unnecessary hiccups, such as being mindful of what we’re saying, posting and sending. Double checking everything, especially important emails and move your coffee mug a little further away from your devices.

If you have to sign important agreements, or make big purchases, take your time to review the information carefully. If you have travel plans, triple check if you have all that you need, especially important documents, and plan everything with extra time, just to be on the safe side.

More Tips for Having a Smooth Ride during the RX:

✔️ Read the Fine Print (Twice!) - Double-check all details before signing anything or making big purchases. Always keep your receipt and get clarity on the refund policy and your exchange options.

✔️ Get a Second Opinion Before Signing Contracts - Ask a lawyer, trusted advisor or friend to review it before making big moves. Wait, if possible.

✔️ Don’t Rely on Tech Without Backups - It’s very common for emails and messages to disappear, files to get corrupted, devices breaking down or starting to malfunction… so backup everything & double-check messages before hitting send.

✔️ Avoid Jumping to Conclusions - Texts and emails can be misinterpreted so be extra clear. Details can get overlooked. Confirm plans twice to make sure there are no misunderstandings.

✔️ Avoid Last-Minute Travel Plans - There can be travel delays, cancelations, reroutes, luggage getting lost or misplaced. So leave early and triple check if you have all that you need, including your documents. It also doesn’t hurt to have a plan B & a change of clothes with you if you are checking your luggage. Pay extra attention to extra hidden fees!

✔️ Trust But Verify – If something feels too good to be true, it probably is!  Be cautious of scams, hidden clauses, or false promises.

But it’s not all chaotic and negative.
