My boyfriend proposed me yesterday, during a mercury rx. I said yes, (because I wanted to say yes and because asking him to delay it until mercury goes direct would have sounded silly) but I am not comfortable with this happening during an rx. What do you think?IP: Logged |

Read my post below, I'm not sure either. I want to know, esp since the guy in question has been back and forth with his emotions since he got serious with the girl he proposed to. He got serious with her during last merc retro. Thats very weird.I'm sure your situation is NO WAY NEAR as weird, best of luck and congratulations! I hope we both get some answers! IP: Logged |

Hi globe trotter! Timing is everything, but then again, we don't always have the luxury of choosing when things happen to us.First of all, congratulations to you and your partner. Know that an important milestone has been reached in your relationship, Mercury retrograde or not. However, just be aware that since the proposal happened during this period, some "Re"-adjusting might be necessary once Mercury turns direct on July 10. (You know how our guru Linda Goodman refers to Mercury Rx periods as those in which you have to RE everything: re-do, re-vise, re-think, re-consider, etc. You get the drift.) What do I mean by readjusting? Well, for example, don't be surprised if he changes his mind! (Just kidding  ! Seriously, some minor kinks might just have to be ironed out. I'm sure you'll know the details as you trust your gut instincts and trust in the beauty of your love for each other. You know what's really cool? I attended this lecture-workshop of the San Francisco Astrological Society (SFAS) last night and the speaker was a Berkeley-based astrologer named Gerald Baron. He has this waaay cool website called www.cosmic-imperative.com, which is the only complete spoken horoscope website on the internet today. You can ask its oracle, hear some spoken horoscopes like daily forecasts, and more importantly for your purposes, synastry and composite relationship horoscopes via spoken interpretations. So, globe trotter my dear, don't give in to fear! As Linda Goodman would say, LOVE transcends the influence of the planets! Congratulations once again and as OzMeg222 said it, BEST OF LUCK AND CONGRATULATIONS! ------------------

I am not an astrology whiz, but I have read a bit about the Mercury in Retrograde. From what I understand, it is bad to start new things during the Mercury Rx, but I vaguely remember being mentioned to not worry about things that had already started / decided prior to the retrograde. All things considered, your fiance probably had this decided, planned, and started before the Mercury in Retrograde began. And, on the other side, you more than likely had thought over such a possibility and decided your true feelings for your fiance before it had began, as well.As I said, I am new to astrology, so maybe I am wrong. But, I would not consider this starting something new, but just another logical step in something that started long before the retrograde began. Congratulations!

Congrats on your engagement!If there is a problem and you have to "re-do" anything ... why don't you propose? Do the whole romantic thing ... just the perfect way you want to let him know how much he means to you ... and then pop the question to him? Offer him a toe-ring or something crazy... Just do it when Mercury goes back to normal ... At least this way you get any bad "re-dos" overwith? DT IP: Logged |

Whats meant to be nothing can undo it anyway..I don't get caught up in the Mercury retro stuff..Don't feed into it, just enjoy what you have with your fiance and if things should go south more then likely it has nothing to do with Mercury Retro, perhaps you and your fiance need to do some more growing or something..Its all about what YOU believe..

We will throw an engagement party two weeks later and announce it to everyone then. Does this count as a "re-do"?  Thanks for your comforting words. True, though. We've been talking about getting married for about two months now. So, it is something planned prior to the rx. IP: Logged | |
