Mercury Retrograde Creates Trying Times For Love

By Lou Raedwulfe


While the world's attention has been focused on the events of the world, Mercury retrograde has its own deadline, there is another deadline that is also approaching which, in its own way, could be as chaotic on an emotional and romantic level. This Fall's Mercury retrograde promises to create all kinds of relationship communication issues.

Fasten your seat belt and put on that face mask because Mercury Retrograde is here with all of its usual and unusual backfires. This time, other planets are also in retrograde, so expect the unexpected. If you have plan A in place, also make sure that you have plan B and C because you may find that you need it.

These past couple of weeks have been a good example of Mercury's impact on communication as the Congress tried to work on our country's national financial problems. I suspect they will be revisiting this issue again before the year is over. The signing of any legal documents during a Mercury Retrograde will most certainly cause issues in the not-so-distant future.

Mercury retrogrades give us a front row seat as a witness to some very disturbing communications among our personal relationships. At a deeper and more personal level, we can expect things to go awry and have communication breakdowns during this time as well. They are usually short lived without lasting effects unless the relationship is on its last legs and then breakups can occur.

Mercury the Messenger sends us the energy to get along with each other. When it goes into retrograde, communication breaks down on many levels. It becomes the messenger of deceit and distorts the truth causing us to misunderstand and sometimes react to others in a negative manner. This puts stress on the relationship and causes instability.

This time can be critical for relationships that were already having problems. If you had been thinking of leaving the relationship, this is one time where you have a window of opportunity, because it will support your desires. It is not, however, a good time to start a new relationship, as it may not last very long.

If you cannot make another person see your side of the picture, if you can, and if at all possible, resume this conversation for a later date. You will have more luck getting them to see and understand your point of view.

This truly is not the time to get upset and try to work out issues that are important to you. If you can wait three weeks, things will be much easier to deal with. It is also very important to meet in person if you must discuss important problems between you as texting or emailing can become an issues in and of themselves.

5 things to remember to keep on track in your relationships during retrogrades:

1. Discuss problems in person instead of using texting/email

2. Put off important discussions until this retrograde passes

3. Keep your perception of reality during this time

4. Be very diligent when texting and emailing

5. Control your temper; anger can run high during retrogrades

Mercury will begin its forward journey in early Fall, so, try to remain calm and resolve important things after this time period when you will be back to 'normal'. Take a deep breath and wait for when things will be much calmer after Mercury retrograde.
