My ex has blocked me for NO REASON during this Mercury Retrograde and I have no idea why as we are on good terms...

Without going into too much detail as I don't want to bore anyone, we reconnected last Summer (we were went out about 5 years ago) but decided to end things after a few months because of bad timing and he was going through personal issues which I completely understand.

He hasn't been himself at all, we basically haven't really spoken because he doesn't have the 'effort' but it's nothing personal and wants us to be on good terms so I respected his space and hoped we'd be mates again in the future when he's better.

Anyway I was ill in hospital bored, I put up a Snapchat jokingly asking for a spare Kidney and then after he watched it he blocked me????? I thought exes were supposed to come back during retrograde?


I text him respectfully asking why, first he lied then I said 'I'm glad you're polite enough to lie, I'm not offended at all just wondering as to why as I thought we were on good terms and it wasn't personal, have I done something to upset you if so I am sorry. ' He replied saying ' Don't think like that it's nothing I just need to focus on myself and sort myself out and what not'

Does anyone have any astrological ideas or personal insights as to why he is doing this? I don't mind that he's doing it but what I do mind is being left in the dark, I'm so confused and It's hurting me to be honest because It does feel personal.

This is his chart with transits.

Transit Saturn and Pluto opposite his Moon?

I wouldn't even take this personally. Maybe you have a big and disruptive effect on his emotional life that even a little joke/quip has devastating emotional effects on him. Or maybe it just disturbs his spirit in a way he doesn't like. Saturn opp Moon shows this could be a time when he's going inward. I think this just more about him then it is about you.

I will block someone I've freshly broken up with because I dont want to see their info to help me move on. It helps, and you two may very well still be on good terms.

Him and I are going through similar transits, Moon Opp Pluto and Venus Square Saturn I think (not too good at reading transits)... I wish he gave me a proper answer instead of being vague 'Sorting myself out'... What's that got to do with blocking me though!

I'm the exact same, except this isn't a fresh break up, I don't know why he didn't do it at the start if it hurts to look, that's what's bugging me wondering why this happened out the blue... The fact he blocked me when I was in hospital is quite cruel that's why I'm unsettled about it.

Transiting south node conjunct transiting mars square composite Asc with tr chiron attached, as transiting mercury retrograde conjunct transiting sun and nessus square to composite sun. He might have had an impulsive reaction in a sudden self-defensive feeling against a disturbing/painful, maybe subconscious, emotion in reading your message, especially the mars/south node transit suggests the impulse to move on from the past. Transiting Neptune/Moon also square to comp. mercury, so communication at this moment can be too emotional and not clear.

If he sees me as his 'past' then that definitely stings... I've helped him so much through the years ( My Moon is EXACT on his IC and also exactly conjuncts his Sun/Moon Midpoint) he said no matter what happens we'd always be in eachothers lives but I guess people say what they don't mean all the time.

I understand why you are hurted! I think that transiting Nessus conjunct Mercury retrograde was "cruel" as you have called it. I am not sure he sees you as his past, but the mars/south node transit square to transit chiron conjunct to the composite ASC might suggest that a past wound was triggered, Chiron is transiting in the 12th house so I assume it's at subconscious level and it might just have to do with his own issues, not with you...
In Composite, saturn in 12th house is square to Pluto and to Sun, and since Mars is conjunct Chiron, his own issues are a burden to the relationship and it seems it is the same reason for the bond hard to get stable between you two. Also, Sun/Mercury midpoint is conjunct the South Node in Gemini, so somehow spontaneous communication might be blocked.

Hi astrosaz,
Mercury retrograde may have caused him to feel confused and thus blocking you. Wait a bit for Mercury to turn direct again and see what happens...

He's been confused for a long time now, I'll be extremely shocked if he unblocks me from the app seeing as we haven't spoke for a long time maybe once or twice from December - February. I wish he gave me a more specific answer. Is there any transits coming up that would maybe cause him to reach out to me?

Thank you Vansio we both certainly need it, I wish I had some answers.

And thank you to everyone who's responded to this post so far, I'm desperate to find clarity and clues somehow and reading these posts soothes me slightly X

Mercury Rx can play with our minds and disrupt communication. One common thing in relationship is that it can cause breakups or couples to patch back. It may be things that have been bothering us and we action on it during a Mercury Rx.

Examples:
My friend broke off with her bf when Mercury turned Rx in November 2019. It wasn't a sudden decision...there were already issues and he was distancing himself. But after Mercury turned direct, he suddenly text her again wanting a reconciliation.

On the other hand, my guy and I patched back during a Mercury Rx.

Of course this doesn't happen to everyone, if not we will be breaking up/patching back 2-3x a year! There must already be something brewing. You sound like you know what has been bothering him... so is he just whimsically blocking you? I remember repeatedly deleting my guy in the past because I felt so sad looking at his name and reading his messages.

I don't know what happened between you but sometimes people need to cut off to move on emotionally. This is not to say they won't reconnect. Some do... after they have managed to put whatever past behind them.

It sounds like he needed to cut it off to work something out within himself.

It would have obviously been more mature to tell you before hand but people are wierd and when they're struggling even more so.

Every single break up I've had has happened during or right before a MR. Also every single reconnect where we got back together.

Sometimes it's permanent, sometimes it's not. I've always found it best to try my best to accept thats its over and allow destiny to do the rest...easier said than done.

Thanks for those examples it's good to get an insight from someones personal experience. I know some of what's bothering him but he seems to be fine with literately everyone apart from me! That's why it feels so personal.. Maybe he can't be friends with me without feelings I dunno, but he knows he can tell me that which is what's messing me about...

Thank you for your reply roseblue and sharing your experiences. We broke up in October so this is why I'm so confused, it wasnt even a Mercury retrograde... It does sound like he has issues to work through I don't see what that has to do with blocking me out of the blue tho tonight I went on FB (I dont have him as a friend) and saw tons of videos and pictures of him laughing and partying with our mutual friends I'm usually quite emotionally resilient so the fact this has caused me to be quite upset is shocking to me... I think it's the vague answer he gave me instead of being upfront which is hurting my self esteem he's fine with everyone apart from me...

That's because you're not just anyone to him! 😀 We're usually natural and "normal" with people who don't really matter to us, but towards those who do, we tend to behave in illogical ways.

I recalled when my guy was doing the push/pull, he was friendly and chatty with all the gals except me. I thought he disliked me but actually he did but was trying to hide it.
