Mercury's Mistakes: What to Avoid during Retrograde

Mercury retrograde is a period when the planet seems to be moving backwards relative to the Earth. In astrology, this time is associated with communication difficulties, slowdowns, and technical glitches. For more information, see the Izvestia article.

Mistake number 1. Signing important documents

During Mercury retrograde, the risk of mistakes and misunderstandings increases. You should not make large deals, sign contracts or take out loans. If it is impossible to postpone, it is worth rechecking every detail and the terms of the contract several times.

Mistake number 2. Start of new projects

The planet, symbolizing thinking and communication, makes it difficult to implement new ideas in the retrograde phase. It is better to end old cases or reconsider previous decisions. New beginnings may encounter bureaucratic obstacles and a bad start.

Mistake number 3. Purchase of equipment and gadgets

Breakdowns and defects of new devices are possible during this period. Often, equipment purchased during Mercury retrograde quickly fails. It is optimal to wait for the end of the period and then make purchases.

Mistake number 4. Hasty trips and travel

Astrologers advise to check documents, tickets and schedules carefully. Mercury retrograde is often accompanied by flight delays, baggage losses, and booking misunderstandings.

Mistake number 5. Conflicts and emotional solutions

Mercury retrograde time tends to lead to misunderstandings and resentments. It is better to avoid a showdown and not make decisions based on emotions. Later, the situation may become clearer, and the view of the problem will change.
