Mercury in Retrograde October 2019

It's that time of year again when Mercury goes Retrograde!  Mercury usually goes retrograde three times a year and is known to upset communication, technology, and day-to-day expressions.  

Mercury officially goes retrograde on October 31, 2019 at 27 degrees of Scorpio backing all the way up to 11 degrees of Scorpio.  It may seem early to talk about, but just like the flu, we start to feel and see the warning signs early. During this time communication may not feel solid, we may flip-flop on decisions, or contracts and projects may need a second look or even a redo! 

On November 20, Mercury will go direct at 11 degrees of Scorpio and be on its way. Similar to the flu analogy, we may need time to recover after the retrograde. This is particularly relevant to anyone with planets sitting between 11-27 degrees of Scorpio, as Mercury will be making one additional pass as it heads back to 27 degrees of Scorpio.
