Advance warning. Buckle up! Mercury \u2013 the planet that rules communication and travel \u2013 turns retrograde two days from now, on August 12, at 9 p.m. EDT, in earth sign Virgo at 11 degrees. On September 5, it turns direct in Leo. Mercury rules both Virgo and Gemini, so those two signs will feel the impact most strongly. However, everyone feels these retrogrades to some degree.<\/p>\n

During Mercury retrogrades, miscommunication is often rampant, electronics and appliances break down, it\u2019s unwise to launch new projects or sign contracts. Instead, follow the rule of the three Rs: revise, review, reconsider. Mercury also rules moving parts, so it\u2019s wise not to buy a car or electronic device during the retro.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re traveling during this period, try to go with the flow because you may experience delays or abrupt changes in your schedule. It\u2019s also probable that you\u2019ll return to the location you\u2019re visiting at some point within the next year or so.<\/p>\n

Mercury will still be retrograde on the day of the solar eclipse, August 21. Since this eclipse will be total in some parts of the U.S., solar power grids may go down and cell phone coverage may be spotty. California and North Carolina, the two states that have the largest solar power <\/a>infrastructure, are preparing natural gas backups.<\/p>\n

And just in case you missed the post about what this solar eclipse may portend, here\u2019s a link<\/a> to it.<\/p>\n

And, a shameless plug, in The Biggest Book of Horoscopes Ever,<\/a> you’ll find all the info you could possibly need for successfully navigating 2017-2019, monthly roundups for all 12 signs.<\/p>\n
