What Mercury Retrograde Really Means

Mercury governs communication, intellect, and travel. When retrograde, it may cause temporary delays or misunderstandings — but this is an opportunity to:

• Reflect & Reassess: Revisit past decisions and unfinished projects.
• Slow Down to Grow: Learn patience and mindfulness.
• Spot Hidden Opportunities: People or situations from the past may return to guide you.

Each zodiac sign experiences retrograde differently. Gemini and Virgo, ruled by Mercury, may feel more introspective, while Aries and Leo can review leadership or creative projects. Taurus and Capricorn may find it ideal for strategic planning.
