Mercury retrograde in the natal chart: what to do. Mercury in astrology

Retrograde- this is a special type of planetary movement, when for an earthly observer, the planet is moving backward - “backing away”. This effect occurs due to different movement speeds. Remember when you are traveling on a train and you see from the window another train that is moving in the same direction, but slower. It seems to you that another train is going backwards.

All planets are retrograde except the Sun and Moon. The most powerful influence on our earthly affairs is exerted by the retrograde movement of Mercury and Venus.

During retrograde, Mercury acts in an unusual way. The accuracy and correctness of our decisions is questioned, and we often cannot perceive information correctly. For example, when buying a house or a car during Mercury retrograde, we do not notice defects that will reveal themselves to us over time.

When we go on a trip or get a new job, we are subsequently surprised that the conditions turn out to be completely different from what was presented. Many agreements concluded during this period are not implemented properly.

Therefore, the time of Mercury retrograde is a rather difficult period for business. All proposals received at this time should be considered very carefully.

If you are planning your vacation, check Mercury retrograde period. Many “surprises” await you if your travel date falls during this period. The hotel was not the one you booked. You wanted to visit the Dali Museum. It is closed on this day. It's even worse if you go on vacation by car.

During the retrograde period, it becomes more difficult to express and convey your thoughts. The performance of communications equipment is deteriorating, equipment is breaking down more often and malfunctioning.

Work with old connections and contacts.
Deal with unfinished and already existing projects and documents.
It’s good to put things in order, throw away all unnecessary papers and other storage media.
Quit your job.
Get a seasonal job.
Creative people should expect inspiration - you can think about new projects, ideas, plans.
Work with your mental attitudes. Pay attention to how thoughts shape our destiny, our attitude towards the world and ourselves.
It’s good to work with your complexes, subconscious programs, psychological blocks and clamps.
The period is good for working with a psychotherapist or for psychoanalysis.
There is an increased chance to deal with many of your internal problems, realize them, and bring them out.
Meditate, clear and calm your mind.
Repair broken equipment.
Meet old friends and relatives.
Drivers should pay extra attention to the road.
Try not to take long trips.
This is a good time to retake exams.
Love relationships that begin at this time will not last.
It's good to renew old friendships.
It's good to do painstaking mental work.

The period of Mercury retrograde has arrived...

What does it mean? How might this affect us? And how can we use this time to our advantage?

In astrology, the concept of “retrograde” means a change in the direction of a planet’s movement. When any planet begins to move backwards, its energy rushes inward and begins to act somewhat differently. Mercury is the only planet whose retrograde effect is felt by most people. It is believed that during the retrograde period, Mercury has a detrimental effect on people, but if you take advantage of this situation correctly, you can use this period to your advantage.

Mercury is the planet of contacts, contracts, information, intellectual activity, commerce and trade. It is associated with travel and transport, negotiations, training, and signing documents. Mercury is responsible for memory, speech, oratory, logic and intelligence.

If you want something new to happen in your life, make room for it, complete things before moving forward. Think about how many things you need to complete, delegate, or get rid of before you can move on and bring abundance and wealth into your life, new relationships?

Deal with unfinished and running projects and documents. You can finish an article, finish a book. It’s good to put things in order, throw away all unnecessary papers, archives, and storage media.

You can quit your old job.

Creative people are often inspired by Mercury during the retro period. New projects, ideas, plans are born. In the retro phase, it is better to think carefully about them, analyze them, and it is better to start working on implementation when Mercury returns to direct (direct) movement.

Work with old connections and contacts. Meet friends and relatives whom you have not seen for a long time.

Work with your mental attitudes. Pay attention to how thoughts shape our destiny, our attitude towards the world and ourselves.

Meditate, clear and calm your mind, read mantras, prayers and affirmations.

In all these matters you will be lucky.

During retrograde periods, all Mercurian affairs develop slowly, confusion often arises, and the risk of mistakes increases. New projects are slowed down, disruptions occur in transport, courier services and mail, it is more difficult to study and engage in intellectual work, and conduct negotiations. During such periods, smart equipment often breaks down, and telecom operators experience problems.

Therefore, take note of what it is better not to do during this period in order to avoid troubles:

When shopping, it is especially better not to make any significant purchases, because... later you may be disappointed, hidden defects will be revealed.

Sign contracts, make transactions, open a business, project, etc. the probability of errors is very high.

Going to work for the first time, because... subsequently you may not be satisfied with the conditions, additional information that you did not know will be revealed; sign contracts.

Start new things, because... with a high probability they will be recurrent.

Decide something definitively, because... then your solution, your view of the problem, will change.

Start studying on courses, because... studying will be difficult or the knowledge gained will not be useful to you in practical activities.

Buy equipment. It will not be useful, in the future it will turn out to be unnecessary or break.

Borrow money or lend it yourself. It will be almost impossible to return them.

Make new friends. They will not last long and will not become serious.

Move, buy an apartment, rent out. There will be delays and obstacles.

Use the period of Mercury retrograde to your advantage and at the end of this period, begin with pleasure all the postponed tasks!

Mahesh Darmadasa

Astrology is a rather complex field. Each planet, which plays a certain role in compiling a star horoscope, has many features of movement that must be taken into account. A retrograde planet is one such concept, based specifically on the movement of a celestial object.

Going backwards

If you rush along a highway or railway at a high enough speed and overtake passing traffic, you get the feeling that it is standing still or even moving backwards. But this is absolutely not true, because a car or train moves forward in the same way, but only at its own speed. The illusion, based on the mismatch of movement speeds, is so vivid that it causes the sensation of moving backwards. So the planets, on the movement and location of which they are based, can also have such supposedly retrograde motion.

The complex paths along which planets and stars move in outer space are the basis of astrology. In order to correctly talk about the influence of celestial bodies on the character and destiny of a person from the point of view of this area of predictions, it is necessary to understand all the intricacies of the movement of planets and stars. Retrograde motion of planets is possible due to their different periods of revolution around the sun, speed and trajectory of movement relative to each other.

Back to different times

Almost all planets that are taken into account in compiling an astrological chart, except the Sun and Moon, can have a retrograde motion. In each specific case it has its own meaning, determined by many factors. Retrograde planets in the natal chart most often mean a return to the past. There can be several of them - up to 5. For example, the planet Mercury is the fastest in terms of retrograde motion. It reverses for three weeks three times per earthly year. Venus is also a fast planet. It is retrograde for 43 days in two years. The planet Mars also has a retrograde motion every two years, but its period is already 70 days. The distant planets - Uranus, Neptune, Pluto - are retrograde for 5 months a year.

Retrograde movement of planets in human life

Every planet that is taken into account when drawing up a natal chart can move backwards. But the opinions of astrologers sometimes differ in terms of the specifics of its influence on a person’s life. Some believe that the presence of a retrograde movement of the planet means a return to past lives with the obligatory indication of unfinished deeds. Others prefer to believe that retrograde planets in a horoscope have only restraining characteristics. In any case, you should not put all the cards only on retrograde planets, even if there are many of them.

The retrograde movement of planets should always be considered in conjunction with other elements of the natal and karmic charts.

The words “karma” are known to everyone; for many it means the same as “fate” and “fate”. And the concept of “karma” can be accurately understood if you answer the question: “What does a retrograde planet mean?” Let's figure it out. In a karmic chart, a retrograde planet or several such objects in the sky will mean unfulfilled deeds of past lives. They will demand their completion and will haunt a person all his life if he does not understand the signs and does not do what he should have done once. Such unfinished business will affect your entire life, preventing you from moving forward. That is why the retrograde movement of the planet has a restraining and karmic role in fate and character.

Each retrograde planet that appears in the natal or karmic chart exerts its influence in a certain area of human life. This is important to consider. Which planets are retrograde, and how they influence fate, you need to figure out.

Retrograde Mercury

The planet Mercury is responsible, so to speak, for a person’s communicative qualities. If it has retrograde movement in the natal chart, then the individual will have problems with communication. Retrograde Mercury can cause stuttering, which in any case will affect communication. A person, depending on the influence of other planets, will either dislike conversations in principle or, on the contrary, will not spare words, annoying and irritating those around him. In any case, the effect of retrograde Mercury must be carefully worked through, reducing its negativity and turning the curiosity and craving for deep knowledge it causes into advantages.

Venus retrograde

Venus moving backwards, present in the natal horoscope, makes a person constrained in his feelings, desires, and fantasies. He can never fully understand and sort out his feelings caused in his soul. It is difficult for a person with retrograde Venus in his horoscope to express his feelings, because he himself does not understand them very clearly. This can apply to all areas of life - from choosing clothes that suit the moment to relationships in the family. The presence of such a sign in the natal horoscope requires careful, scrupulous work on oneself.

If Mars is moving backwards

The ancient Greeks called the god of war Mars, and the blood-red planet visible in the sky received the same name. Decisiveness and determination - these are the main characteristics of a militant deity. But if Mars has a retrograde movement in the natal chart, then the person loses these qualities altogether. Indecision, cowardice, lack of initiative - this is what those around him see in him. Although in fact, a person with retrograde Mars in his natal chart is directed inward, he needs to carefully weigh everything several times before making any decision.

Retrograde Saturn

Saturn itself is a very unusual planet in astrology - it slows everything down. What can we say about retrograde Saturn? In addition, it is worth considering that Saturn is the point of presence of the father in a person’s life. If this planet in its retrograde motion is present in the child’s natal chart, then the father in the child’s life is either absent altogether or has only a nominal significance. For a girl, retrograde Saturn is reflected in difficulties with marriage. The negativity of retrograde Saturn decreases either when it returns to its natal position, or in contradiction to it in antiphase.

Jupiter in retrograde

The influence of retrograde Jupiter affects the worldview and worldview of the person in whose natal chart it is present. It is quite difficult for society to accept a dissident. But on the other hand, it is people with retrograde Jupiter in the natal chart who see perspective where others simply would not consider anything but a blank wall. An entrepreneurial spirit is the main advantage of those in whose horoscope Jupiter moves backward.

A retrograde planet is quite influential in the natal horoscope. It has a restraining effect, rolling back events, giving signs from the past. For many astrologers, the retrograde move that retrograde planets have in the horoscope is like news from a past life, an unfinished business, an unfulfilled destiny.

In order to correctly take into account all the nuances of the movement of the planets, you need to read them correctly, know the features of influence, and be able to combine signs. It is also important to be able to correctly present information to a person, without driving him into the trap of hopelessness with the backward movement of the horoscope planets.

Mercury is the planet closest to the Sun, responsible for our thinking, speech, mind, information that we perceive and express to the world, both in writing (books, writing) and orally. Also, one of its traditional meanings is our brothers/sisters.
Mercury is the symbolic ruler of the 3rd house.
Today we will talk specifically about retrograde Mercury in the natal chart.

Since I myself am the “happy” owner of Mercury, moving backward, and having studied quite well, from the point of view of an astrologer, all its pros and cons, I will share my experience with you. Mercury is in the retrograde phase of movement approximately 1/3 of the entire time, so there should be a lot of people who “understand” me and are interested in WHAT THE FUCK IS ABOUT HERE :)))

Mercury retrograde in your natal chart can most likely mean a “delay” in thinking. How to understand? You can think for a very long time about something that others seem to comprehend much faster. For example, solving the same mathematical problem. Here we are not talking about this or that person’s abilities in mathematics, but how this person presents the conditions of the problem. With Mercury retrograde in the radix, in this case, a person will sit, starting from the very beginning, for a long time sorting out every thought and thinking about HOW it all turned out and in the end will come to the result later than others. Common people may call you a “slower”...(I know from myself))) Roughly speaking, it takes a long time for this or that information to reach you. And this does not mean that you are stupid, probably even the opposite. We just have a non-standard perception of information from the outside.

I would even call people with retrograde Mercury talented, since their way of thinking is truly unusual, and most often one can only envy such people, because they know how to form/express/display their thoughts in a more interesting way. (Well, this is from my point of view and my own experience).

Any retrograde planet in the radix forces its owner to work hard throughout his life on the theme of the planet and the house in which it stands, although such a planet shows that the native will be able to successfully realize himself precisely in the area of significance of the retro planet.
Such planets “move back”, and even from the point of view of karmic astrology, they force you to “go back”, to correct the “incompleteness” of a certain task in this life, in this incarnation, which you may not have done in a past life.
Oddly enough, people with such a “Mercurian problem” in the natal chart are most eager to show themselves as speakers, writers, poets, translators, journalists. They try to show themselves precisely in the Mercury regions. This is the right path - after all, a retro planet needs to be worked out, although many more difficulties may arise than for people with the same planet in direct (direct) movement.
For example, with a very problematic retro-Mercury in my natal chart (in Aries, in the 1st house), back in my school years I participated in all sorts of poetry reading competitions and public speaking competitions (and, oddly enough, took first place). Now I work and live by writing, teaching, working with my voice and I will continue to do this, since my Mercury and I are no longer without each other))))

Retrograde Mercury is a feature of thinking, a non-standard worldview.

Another problem for owners of retrograde Mercury is that when we start to think, write, talk about something, very often we try to put everything into pieces (thinking that it will work out better)... and no matter how hard we try, we still it doesn't work. Having started talking about one thing, we can drift off into a completely different topic, forget what we actually started talking about and end up ending this whole thing in a completely different area))
It's even funny, but in life it really interferes.

A disharmonious Mercury (and even if it is retrograde) can make it difficult to learn foreign languages; deceit; talkativeness; problems with speech (for example, stuttering) or memory. Or, for example, I know from myself that you can start talking, and then suddenly in the middle of a sentence you forget what you were talking about, and some kind of “stupor” overtakes you)) funny.
*True, the Jupiter-Mercury aspect is more likely to give deceitfulness/talkativeness. (Jupiter increases Mercury speech).

This is what I learned from this and shared with you the most striking examples. If you have a retrograde “Lord of the Mind” in your natal chart, then I would advise you to develop your speech, thinking, speaking or writing abilities, even if your work, for example, has nothing to do with this. For myself. Speech therapist, tongue twisters, writing poetry and much more, everything that you personally like. The main thing is not to stand still and develop.

P.S. - As always, I look forward to your questions on the topic in the comments!) Have a good mood!)

There are one or more planets RETROGRADE.

From an astronomical point of view RETROGRADE Planet can be explained this way: when it seems to an observer from Earth that the Planet has begun to move backwards, in the opposite direction. In reality, of course, this does not happen - the Planets always move in the same direction, it’s just that at some point the speed of the Planet slows down and a feeling of reverse movement is created.

To make it clearer, RETRO movement of the Planets can be compared to two moving objects - a car and a bicycle. The speed of the car is, of course, greater than the speed of the cyclist. Therefore, when a car catches up and overtakes a cyclist, it seems to the passenger sitting in the car that the cyclist is moving backwards - although he is also driving, his speed is simply much less than the speed of the car. So it is with the Planets.

This RETRO movement of the Planets, recorded in the natal chart at the time of a person’s birth, will have a very great influence on him - on his psychology and on events during his life on the topic of this Planet.

RETROGRADE there are all Planets except the Sun and Moon.

For those who are not at all familiar with the symbols of Astrology, I will explain - in the natal chart RETROGRADE Planets are indicated by the Latin letter R, which stands next to the icon Planets.

So, what does a RETROGRADE Planet mean for those who have it in ?

1. Firstly, this means obsession person on the same sphere, on the same problem. For example, if in your card:

, then you are fixated on the topic of relationships, on the topic of love, on the topic of money,
means that you are fixated on,
may become fixated on the topic of his authority, high social status, teaching activity, or on the topic of travel.

2. Secondly, RETROGRADE Planet means the need for repeated repetitions the same situation (“repetition is the mother of learning”). For example:

forces a person to study, study and study again. Repeat and repeat. A person with needs to explain the studied material several times. Such a person will not always hear you the first time. Therefore, do not be surprised if your child (or another loved one) needs to repeat everything 10 times. Most likely, it's in his map. You need to be much more patient with such people; you need to explain the same topic to them more than once.
a person with will constantly come across the same types of partners - all alcoholics, all athletes, all brunettes with blue eyes, all much older or much younger. All relationships can develop according to the same scenario. It's like a vicious circle that you've been walking in for many, many years.
RETRO Neptune- in the worst case, repeating the topic of alcoholism and mental disorders. At best, it is a repetition of the theme of psychology, spirituality, artistic and musical creativity (you can go to study these professions several times, quit and return to these classes several times, constantly rewrite musical works, redraw your paintings, achieving the best result).

3. RETRO Planet in may indicate personal errors in past lives and mistakes of ancestors on the topic of Planets. Therefore, in this life they give obstacles in achieving anything. For example:

mistakes in relationships with brothers and sisters give - it is difficult to establish a connection with them,
mistakes in love give - therefore it is difficult to love and be loved, it is difficult to achieve harmony in relationships with partners,
mistakes in the topic of career give - therefore in this life there will be obstacles on the career ladder, obstacles with government agencies,
if you made mistakes abroad, in teaching, in achieving a high social status, then in your chart there will be - therefore there will be difficulties in being a teacher, obstacles in achieving a high social status, difficulties in relations with foreigners,
etc.

4. RETRO Planet its properties are similar to Ketu (the Setting Node). It means that Planet karmically overloaded- this means that you have already gained quite a lot of experience on this topic Planets in their past incarnations. Therefore, in this life you need to “slow down” on this topic. We need to switch to other areas of life, do those things that are indicated by ordinary direct messages. Planets.

But, if you still show more activity on the topic RETRO Planets, then you will have more obstacles and restrictions. There will be a certain stupor that will not allow you to move on. Think about it - if there is a certain wall in your life that you cannot “break through” - maybe you shouldn’t do it? Maybe you just RETRO Planet in a map that directly says: “you can’t be active here.” Then you just need to move away from this topic and come to terms with what is - then there is a chance to get what you want, only a little later. For example:

if you - in past incarnations you were too active and assertive in achieving your goals - so now you need to pacify this activity,
if you have, let go of the topic of partnerships, do not be active in love, in making money,
if you have, you already have a lot of experience in your career, so don’t try to build it too actively,
if you have RETRO Uranus— you had a lot of friends, you were a very freedom-loving and independent person, so the topic of friendship and freedom has already been worked out, switch to other areas.

5. On this topic RETRO Planets one must “go with the flow without oars.” If the life situation is something offers - take it, no - don’t persist. For example:

if a person is offered to get acquainted with, to strike up a partnership, then “you have to take it,” if not, there is no need to persist in this matter,
if a person is offered travel, it means “you have to take it”, I invite everyone with RETRO Jupiter on free trips ,
if a person is offered a promotion up the career ladder, it means “you have to take it.” If they don’t offer it, don’t persist, don’t push it.

6. RETRO Planet does not mean a ban on manifestation in its area. It only says that according to the functions of this Planets a person's personal initiative must be reduced to zero. Must be "number two" in this area. For example:

suggests that it is better not to take the initiative on the topic of love. Wait for someone to approach you and show interest. In partnerships (personal and business), it is better to give the initiative to your partner.
- suggests waiting until you are asked to teach, when you are invited on some trip abroad when you are offered a promotion.

7. RETRO Planet does not say that this will never happen. It simply tells us that events Retro Planet will be late in our lives - we need to be patient, wait and not relax ahead of time. For example:

a person with may start studying late,
it's too late to become a teacher, too late will start traveling ,
RETRO Neptune will begin to master the profession of psychologist at a conscious age.

8. RETRO Planet tells us that the theme of this Planet needs let go, don’t bother, don’t demand everything from her at once - then the situation itself will take you where it needs to go.

for example, you can’t bother with the topic - the situation itself will turn out as it should (if you behave correctly).

9. And RETRO Planet can be a positive foundation from our ancestors with the least amount of effort. For example:

in a person with RETRO Uranium one of the ancestors could be an Astrologer, so he will receive invisible support from the family in this profession,
in a person with RETRO Pluto there will be support for ancestors in all professions associated with risk to life.

All of the above factors need to be considered not only on the topic RETRO Planets, but also which House she controls. For example:

if the Ruler of the 1st House is RETRO, then all of the above will relate to the topic of self-development and appearance,
If RETROGRADE Ruler of the 2nd House - to the topic of money,
RETROGRADE Ruler of the House - on the topic of contacts, studies, cars,
if the Ruler of the 4th House RETRO, then this will be related to the theme of ancestors, place of residence,
RETRO Ruler of the 5th House - will indicate the topic of children and creativity,
if the Ruler of the 6th House RETRO— the topic of work, health,
7 Houses - the theme of marriage, courts,
8 At home - the theme of sex, risk, crises will be involved,
9 At home - the theme of travel, abroad, teaching,
10th House - career,
11 House - theme of friends,
12th House - the theme of spiritual search, solitude.

Important! I am often asked “What do Retrograde Nodes mean and how to act on them”? I draw your attention to the fact that Knots it's the other way around... The retro phase for the Nodes is their normal movement. Nodes show what evolutionary task has already been completed (according to South Node) and what needs to be accomplished in this life (according to North Node). It's much worse if Direct nodes. If in your Horoscope Nodes in the Direct phase- this means that in past incarnations you did not fully complete your evolutionary task of South Node. Therefore, now you need to do TWO evolutionary tasks - both for the South and North Nodes.

In the comments below you can write which one Planet in your RETROGRADE and how did this play out in your life?

If you also have Retro Planets and you cannot yet interpret them yourself, but you want to find out specifically for yourself:

what are the functions of Retro Planet You overspent in past incarnations,
what issues did you pay too much attention to in past incarnations?
in what areas of life do you experience restrictions?
in which areas of life you should not show your initiative, should not be active,
where complete external passivity is needed,
what exactly Retro Planets mean to you
how should you behave with Retro Planets, so as not to aggravate the situation.
what illnesses and unpleasant situations in life will make you understand that you are not behaving correctly? Retro Planet.

then you can order this one Astrological consultation

1. The ability to think deeply, in an extraordinary way, the ability to notice details that are not always within the control of the owner of ordinary Mercury;

2. Amazing sense of humor;

3. Patience, attentiveness, perseverance. Such people are best at any job that requires such skills. It doesn’t matter what exactly the range of responsibilities concerns: financial reporting, software, teaching, etc. By the way, they are always very good teachers and tutors. One might even say the best. Firstly, they know how to wait, adjusting to the student’s pace. Secondly, they have a lot of examples in stock: from the most elementary to very deep thoughts;

4. Development of contact skills, the ability to convey your ideas to other people, a thirst for acquiring new knowledge. The desire to know more remains with them throughout their lives. And we are not talking about the desire to show off your intelligence, erudition, and education. They want to really know. These are different things.

Of the professions, according to my observations, trade in its pure form is least suitable for owners of retromercury. Still, this is a very specific area that requires a quick reaction and the ability to “sell” what is sometimes far from the best product. Although here there were rare exceptions to the rule.

Since I have received a question in my personal email many times about the benefits of the Mercury retrograde period for its owners, I answer.

At such times, the thinking of the vast majority of people slows down, so much so that many feel “dumb.” Sometimes it can be difficult to make even basic mathematical calculations. It's even harder to pass a difficult intelligence test. At interviews, owners of ordinary Mercury begin to make mistakes, this makes them worry even more, and they make many other mistakes.

Those with Mercury retrograde do not feel any discomfort during such a period. They continue to live at their usual intellectual pace since childhood. Therefore, against the backdrop of confused and mistaken opponents, they are able to express themselves from the most advantageous and brilliant angle.

Conclusion: owners of retroMercury can and should go to important interviews for employment during the period of Mercury's retrograde movement in the sky. At this time they have a much greater chance of improving their professional level. But it’s better to move to a new place of work after waiting for the planet to turn in the usual direction. This is quite possible, given the need for two weeks of work after a notice of resignation at the current place.

In other words, owners of retromercury can take any action aimed at an intellectual result at any time, including during the period of Mercury retrograde. But we are talking specifically about personal and specifically intellectual results. Completing a package of documents in which many other people take part is difficult to call just your achievement.
