Learn all about the notorious Mercury Retrograde and how it influences your life.
Pesky and surreal, Mercury Retrograde has the makings of potency but can certainly knock us out of our standard orbit. Infamous for sending tech awry, there’s more to Mercury retrograde than meets the eye.
It’s a time of weirdness, time warps, and memory trickery that can royally mess up any contract-based transactions. It’s not so much that it renders time still, but it goes one better and makes time completely irrelevant, which is frustrating for those who hate missing appointments, deadlines and calendar dates.
Communications with others are often fraught with misunderstandings and nonsensical quips. The most accurate communication is more likely to descent from astral realms than any of the people you deal with.
It brings bewildering dating tales and encounters of the good-weird, bad-weird and ugly-weird.
But Mercury Retrograde is not without its depth or profundity. It brings logic to scenarios that made no sense on paper. It’s as if you’ve cracked some code to a puzzle that you’ve been ruminating on for years. It’s a zone of mysteries and solutions, enigmas and breakthroughs.
The July 2020 Horoscopes are up and, ahead of the impending Zap Zone, indispensable. Saturn is back in Capricorn (*waves “hello” with fake beauty queen grin) and Mars will be in the shadow zone of the Retrograde from July 26. The Scopes + my Mars rant are metaphysical reinforcement.

Flat-out in the constellation of Cancer, without the customary retreat into the zodiac before it, this is unadulterated instinct, exclusive, and appreciated only byRead More…
Mercury AND Venus Retrograde at the same time? If it were a television series, you’d be telling the writers to lay off the hooch. We already have a core narrative – dystopian meltdown, turbulent social transformation – does it really require an absurd subplot? Well, yes actually. Bring it on. A magical realism influenced rom-com/ghost story/makeover is very now. The crisis has already inspired many people to radically shift theirRead More…
Mercury Retro in Pisces gives good mercurial revelations. They’re the seemingly whimsical little seeds of information that float in on the breeze. They’re more substantial than their levity suggests. The last three Mercury Retrogrades have been vile problematic. The one last March hooked into the Jupiter-Neptune square. The mid-year Mercury Retro was understudy for the starring Eclipse, interjecting surreal subtones and odd omens. The October/November 2019 Mercury in Scorpio RetrogradeRead More…
I hate Christmas. I thought people were supposed to adhere more to tradition with every passing year, but my grinching is intensifying. It is a Stolen Pagan Festival that has morphed into a synthetic symbol of hypocritical, tree destroying societal dissonance. Yesterday I was in a mall, and, as I have vowed since the last Mercury Retrograde to pay more attention to my intuition, I stopped to analyze the strangeRead More…
