I've just started to read L'astrologie Karmique by Dorothee Kaechlin de Bizemot. She writes that people with Mercur retro in their birth chart might not have forgotten the language they spoke in their former life. She refers to her son who spoke a language no one could understand when he was two years old. It was clearly a language, not the bla bla of small kids. Any retro mercuries out there having experienced the same? Or maybe having learned a "foreign" language very easily?

Hi Stella
Hmm well I have Mercury retro in my chart (it's not an uncommon placement as it usually retros 3 times a year). I don't think I had "my own language" as a child.
Mind you I can have one now Languages are not my "speciality". I can somehow manage to get French, Italian & Spanish all in the same sentence

I am in college right now taking German, and the teacher keeps asking me, "Are you sure you're not from Germany?" My pronunciation is outstanding she says, and it's remarkable after only have had German in high school. Yes, merc was retro when I was born.

I have. I made up words and mixed it with English, Chinese, and Cambodian. I think I did this till I was in kindergarten when I finally learned to speak properly.

That's normal. Kids(with bi-lingual or more background) start to differentiate languages around age 4.

WEll, when I was a child I did "recognise" French as my language or at least as the language, that was very familiar to me.
I couldn't understand the words but somehow the melody of the language, the intonation, the pronunciation felt really familiar. So I used to speak a pseudo French,when I played alone till I was 5 then I stopped.

It felt like my own mother tongue, just with some kind a veil on it, so that I've lost the ability to understand it.
