I don't think it hit me as heavily as the last one, but then again I have a few nice transits happening at the moment (I think).
Still, its been annoying and I've been having extra problems with my mobile phone. Least they're not as bad as the major problems of last merc retro when all the phone lines (inc internet) in my entire street went down for a week.

Means mercury will conjunct my natal (aqu) mercury soon, then that of my lover (pis) so we should have some nice, clear communication coming up.

A virus got into my computer and I had to reboot the whole thing. It did make me finally go out and get proper security on it though. I can download all sorts off the Internet now and not worry. which is good. I have been very introspective during this time, I have a lot planets in Pisces so this Retrograde has affected me more than others have. During the Scorpio Retrograde last time, I had intense conversations/arguments my Mercury R was transiting my 3rd, and me and my partner had to go back to court because his ex wife hadn't signed the divorce papers so it had to be re-done. Don't know whats going to happen during the Cancer R but I shall find out when the time comes. Not sure if anyone knows what the difference is with Retrogrades going through different elements. I have read Mercury R through Fire signs is a time to reassess your direction in life. Retrograde Mercury in Earth is suppose to about reassessing your practical affairs in life. Retrograde Mercury in the air signs is about reassessing how you connect with friends/family and generally your whole social life. And Mercury R through Water, your thoughts may turn to past relationships and it is probably a good time to re-examine old habit patterns and emotional responses. A bit like me over reacting and letting my emotions take a hold of me, I have had to examine my emotional responses but I am heavy water so this is a lifetime theme for me.

But anyway this is me during the Mercury Retrograde.

Finally, my Crab has been suffering ailment after ailment. He underwent a second root canal on the same molar! Very expensive, especially since it was first done about 10 months ago. The next week, he had a kidney stone. Sigh.

And the other day, when the Sun was conjunct Uranus I almost got into an accident. Driving up north in a snow storm with bald tires is a BAD BAD idea. I had to make a 180 turn to avoid an island and a street sign. Thank God there werent any of the many tractor trailers behind me on that highway when i did lose control.

It had been pretty tough when Mercury was rx- lost or delayed mail, and I just went very highstrung (?)...hypernervous whenever I talked to people, I got so very anxious.

Today I had a tiny little triumph over a conversation with a guy who looked like he had gone off his "right track"- yay!
