Mercury Retrogrades in Gemini
From May 10th to June 3rd, Mercury, planet of communication, is retrograde at 5 degrees Gemini, sign of gathering and sharing of information. Mercury is also the planet that influences thinking, ideas, driving, traveling, and interacting with ease and curiosity. When Mercury is retrograde, information (facts, plans, ideas, messages, etc.) seems to go into hiding. The reality is that all that we have encountered in the last three months has overloaded our mental processes.
We enter into a review, assessing all information and experiences from the past. Our minds (thinking) become internalized. We sift through experiences and information to eliminate what is not useful, and to absorb on deeper levels what is valuable. Mercury retrograde times (always three weeks long) can be very useful. We look at previously held information with new eyes. We review and assess.
It is important to understand retrogrades (all planets retrograde) so that we can make use of a cycle of time that assists us in evaluating our life, ideas, plans, thoughts, experiences and beliefs. Decision-making is different during Mercury retrogrades. We are in fact to put off making decisions (major ones) when Mercury is retrograde. When we understand retrogrades we no longer make ill-informed or ill-timed decisions, we can actually save time, money, and avoid difficult outcomes. Mercury retro forces us to review all aspects of our lives.
Previous relationships and situations that are incomplete come back into our lives. Our minds turning inward, we don’t see the fine print. We can miss important dates, and we can become forgetful. Since our thinking processes are internal and information can be hidden it is best to refrain from important decisions, dates, commitments, plans and transactions. We DON’T buy a house, car or large appliance. We DON’T make commitments, take out loans, promise anything, or begin to or decide to move or purchase anything of importance. The reasons are that when the planet of mind and communication (Mercury), is retrograde, many things are concealed, unseen, unknown, out of sight, secluded, and rather mysterious. When Mercury moves forward again, the previously hidden information is revealed, disclosed, laid bare, becomes public, is unveiled, and brought to light.
