Patrice, Mercury Retrograde ends on September 30th so you are in the clear. It's in Virgo, ruling work. You have Uranus and Pluto in Virgo too. Wait for October and onwards. In your Capricorn chart Virgo rules the worldwide web. In your natal chart it rules paid work, unpaid work and academia. So from two angles you'd want to wait for October and beyond. There's a New Moon in Scorpio in your solar Third House of writing and reading, broadcasting and media on 13th November. See what your Tarot says about that.

I have a question about Mercury retro. Today's horoscope on your site, and many of them, have been about me getting a "plan" for internet, communication and putting forth my best strategy. I have so many things I want to launch on the internet but I keep sitting on the ledge because I feel its never the right time because of some negative aspect. Today's horoscope (Sun Capricorn) makes me want to take the jump but Mercury retro stops me. 12/31/1965 2:30AM Washington DC

Is there really a way to fix that? I thought timing was everything in astrology??

Thank you so much

Patrice

Early good morning Jessica, from coastal Maine where I’m not sleeping! Don’t think I’ll be making this one, but drew Queen of Cups for caution and Justice as to what will most benefit.

Very nice picture of you.

This is useful. I should think this is about Mercury Retrograde in Virgo in opposition to a Pisces factor in your chart/the chart of a woman you know. The Queen of Cups is all at sea. Confused and confusing. So Pisces planets at (say) 8 through 21 degrees would be opposed by Mercury going forwards, standing still, going backwards, going back over their old position and so on. Justice is the gain and the scales between yourself and another take time to settle in place - if you have ever watched people weigh things on old-fashioned scales, it takes ages. This is similar to Mercury. But you end up with equilibrium. The hint here would be a semi-sextile from Mercury to Libra factors in your chart.

Think you’re spot on there. I have Aesculapia at 20 Pisces and I’ve had it return and then retrograde back over, now at 19. My Moon and Neptune are at 28 Libra, so I believe the nodes made a Grand Cross? ( if I’m correct), which is about to thankfully pass. I hope it’s all for the positive later on. Thank you much!
