MERCURY OUT OF RETROGRADE

Mercury coming out of retrograde is usually good news. That’s because it’s during the time that Mercury is traveling backwards in the sky that we experience unexpected fiascos like our car breaking down, our computer going on the fritz, or appliances just giving up the ghost. It’s like somebody threw a cosmic monkey wrench into the smooth running of our day-to-day lives. Unfortunately Mercury’s change of direction on April 7th won’t exactly be life returning to normal. That’s because Mercury turned retrograde in one sign (Aries) and came out of retrograde in another (Pisces). It’s like going to sleep in one place and waking up somewhere else with no idea of how you got there. If you were born under a water sign then it’s no big deal because somnambulism – figuratively or literally speaking – is hardly a foreign concept. You just go with the flow. But for everyone else, you’ll want to wait until Mercury re-enters the zodiac sign of Aries on April 16th to get the lay of the land.
