What does it mean when this planet moves backwards? Mercury has already gone retrograde according to ancient astrology methods but in modern astrology it begins on July 26th - Aug. 19th.
Mercury is the planet of communication (messenger of the God's), transportation, broadcasting, journalism, television, writing, talking, critical thinking and intellectual discussions. When this planet goes retro it literally forces us to slow down and look for introspect; reflect on your life and see where one can do better. Retrogrades always bring the past back to life and if those past friends and memories are pleasant, then enjoy. This is also where miscommunication comes in.Speak clearly and precise as miscommunication is common under these stars.
