So Mercury is turning retrograde from January 22nd to February 12th in Aquarius. Aside from the "don't sign any contracts" rule, what else should be followed during Mercury retrograde?

I have two job interviews and I can either schedule them right before Mercury turns retrograde, or I will have to do them while Mercury is retrograde- so I was wondering which would be better.

I'm wondering if I could be feeling the effects early. I have been miserable at work. I sent my boss an angry email 2 days ago. He sent me an apology, and it wasn't even really his fault, but I can't accept it. My coworker accepted his apology on our behalf...and someone just made me cry...AT WORK! I do crazy outside of work, not AT work. This is terrible. Couldn't figure out what to blame. It's not pms. It has to be mercury. Any chance I could be feeling it early since some sites have determined Mercury to be my chart ruler?

Oh no!! I'm about to sign on something new with my job. Ugh! I can't meet with everyone until late next week to sign.
Maybe I should try to put it off.

It's just inside the shadow zone.... So you got 8 days.

Someone has called me the last 3 Merc Rx.

That's the only time of the year that we talk - lol.

It's the area Mercury will cover during the retrograde phase.

Gems and Virgos get really cranky during Mercury Rx.

do you think its possible for me to be feeling the negative effects early if I am heavily influenced by merc and my main work is to communicate? I have never felt this bad at work? And I am sure my higher ups are confused since they just gave me all this recognition over the holidays...everything makes me mad and I can't shut up about it.

It could be something else affecting your natal.

If you give me your DOB I can take a look.

wooohooo! mercury will be in aquarius in retrograde during my birthday which is exactly what it is in my natal chart. I just got offered a new job yesterday- so I'll finally be leaving my ****** job that makes me depressed!

Although the frustrating part about mercury retrogrades is that just when things are looking up for me...everybody else is having issues.

You must be feeling like you're going through a grinder right now.

I'm exhausted... I'll take a look in detail tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be a very eventful day... Take things one step at a time and don't over react.

There is a lot of personal things that I'll try to explain and I don't like to write about someone's personal life in a forum.

Virgo moon, Gem mars here....

There was an extended Merc rx awhile back, I thought I was going to lose my mind. Seriously it was a very stressful period of time, like I was suffocating.
Before it was all over I was counting the days for it to go direct.

when was that? Before this job I lived on passive income, and before that my ex was the money man, so I wonder if that's why I never noticed. My friends and family are very forgiving so it could have gone unnoticed in personal relationships

It always lasts about 3 weeks but it seemed esp long in Feb and June of last year.

There were some other transits that were killing me to retrograde Mars in my 1st going back n forth over my Pluto/Venus added to my issues, also transit Pluto was squaring my natal Pluto/AC, tr. Pluto was making a hard aspect to all my angles, transit Neptune square my Sun and transit Chiron opposed my Moon.
I just remember it felt like torture, getting out of bed was hard.

When Merc went direct it did help a lot, felt like I finally had the ability to think and rationalize so I could deal with all the craziness of those transits.
My energy was zapped for awhile and I had 4 major things break down, my car, my washer and my heater during Feb and then air conditioning went out in June. No fun at all!
