Serious question. I couldn't find any site listing for the times when it slows down and starts gearing toward the retrograde, but despite this year's first Mercury retrograde supposedly only starting on January 21, I've been having nothing but a Merc retro day online today.Inquiring minds want to know. And if it's going to be pissy this time around, to prepare in advance. Aquarius 17 to 1 or so I read, but no idea why it'd be hoitytoity at me then, or already today. Where was Mercury today again, and what else could be nothing but computer and online nonsense? IP: Logged |

I think I saw something about Jan 5 for when it entered the overall retrograde-pattern area, 1 Aquarius or so? Might misremember the date but that seemed to be that one. That just didn't help me in figuring out if it went "stationary" or whatever the right word for when it's slowing down or not per se moving from our point of view, although not yet retrograde to us. Had computer nonsense today as well, that is. Hopefully sorted now, but all that is highly unusual and new, my not having any idea over causes with a fairly new PC. Well, unless I dig up the "birth"-day or when first switched it on after getting it, if wanting to consider that a birthday to see if that poor thing has bad transits or something instead then, supposedly. It's a Virgo as I recall, although how far into it and what time I first got it on I'd probably have to check from somewhere. IP: Logged |

Not necessarily favorable but it's better than waiting until the 21st. But if you need the device you are buying then go for it.IP: Logged |

I can already feel it! The issues that happened between my parents during the past 2 retrogrades came back to the surface again (because they haven't resolved anything). Of course, I'm back to pinning over my ex-fling for no apparent reason. I was literally crying this morning. Yuck. Yuck. Yuck. And last but not least, I've been looking for a freaking apartment and nobody is replying to my calls or emails. It's driving me nuts. On top of this, I mixed up my credit card secret code and it's now blocked. Ugh. Plus, I'm becoming overly nostalgic. I've been thinking about last year and where I was even though I swore I'd never set foot in that city again. The only positive aspect is that I just started working out again. I hadn't worked out in 3 months because I was too busy with my job search. I'm excited again! IP: Logged |

Yes, definitely explains misunderstandings with a lot of people recently, other than that technology always works fine for me during merc retrogrades. IP: Logged |
