I read somewhere, that Mercury retrograde goes well with activities that begin with re:

Rethink, redesign, redecorate, reduce (think clutter), recycle, etc.

Maybe when Mercury is moving forward, we just are moving so fast that we don't think projects/ideas/actions all the way through?

The Retrograde cycle is the repair and rest cycle, necessary for true progress and balance?

Noting that repair and rest both start with re.

Can ANYBODY tell me anything [View all] Ricochet21 Nov 2012 OP
