Love Star Signs-Mercury Retrograde by Alan Lord

So how has it been going over the last couple of days?
Have you been having any problems with communication at all?
Having any problems with emailing or telephone communication?
Is your PC giving you problems?
How about travel and transport?
Did the car start ok this morning?
Were you stuck in traffic for hours, at a time when the roads are normally clear?
If you have noticed anything along these lines then the reason could be in the heavens.
March 30th was the beginning of the Mercury retrograde, a phase that occurs three times in 2011, but sometimes we get four annual visits of this troublesome time.
What is Mercury Retrograde?
It occurs when the planet Mercury slows its orbital traverse of the heavens and appears to go backwards (retrograde). Of course this occurrence is impossible and what we see is just an optical illusion caused by the slowing of Mercury compared to the continuation of the earth. It can be likened to two vehicles travelling side by side, if one vehicle slows and drops behind it can give the illusion of travelling backwards.
Mercury rules communication and during this period of retrograde all kinds of mayhem are likely to occur:
• Emails do not arrive, or get deleted
• Mail is returned to sender
• Computers stop working or go haywire
• Phone lines go down
• Mobile phones have all kinds of gremlins
• Travel plans do not go to schedule
And many more things besides.
• It is said to be a bad time to make any new or major commitments
• to sign any contracts or papers of any importance
• To make any important decisions or move in any new directions
• Whatever you decide is correct during the retrograde period you will change your mind upon later.
• Medical examinations and visits to doctors
• Purchase of cars, motorbikes or bicycles
• Purchase of telephones, computers, TV's etc.
Any such purchases will result in unsatisfactory merchandise, doctors visits will result only in bad news. Communications will be lost or misinterpreted and one is also likely to be very accident prone.
The Mercury retrograde is set to be with us for about three weeks, until April 23rd when the planet speeds up again and things return to normal.
There will be two more retrogrades happening this year and they will occur from August 2nd to 26th and once more from November 24th until December 14th
It will be interesting to know if there is anything in this or if it is just speculation and superstition.
Interestingly, during the election debacle that occurred between George.W.Bush and Al Gore, which took place in 2000, occurred during a Mercury retrograde and was a complete hash of problems with the counting machines, recounts and other problems.
The fated liner Titanic also went down during a Mercury retrograde and misinformation and bad communication were largely responsible for what occurred on that fateful night.
On the positive side, retrograde is the ideal time for reflection, for going over unfinished work and bringing it to completion. It is also a good time to convince someone to change their minds about a decision previously made. And writers, if you have been suffering with writers block then now is the time to hit the keyboard…but perhaps a manual typewriter and not a PC would be advisable…just in case!
