Mercury in retrograde: Watch out

by heathervescent

Mercury went into retrograde yesterday (March 2nd) and will stay there until the 25th. That must explain why I was stuck in traffic on the way to my tax appointment and then when I arrived they didn’t have me on the schedule! It all worked out fine. We reviewed the numbers and double-checked some deductions that ended up giving me a much larger refund. I even made it to the post-office in time to drop off the returns; however I won’t hold my breath on getting a response in the standard 3 week timeframe.

Traditional a Mercury retrograde is a bad time for communications, business and travel. My experience yesterday is a case in point. You might want to wait until the end of the month to send in your tax refund. Computers and electronic equipment often have unexpected problems and crashes, so be sure to back-up often.

However retrogrades are a good time to review old projects, clean out your space, relax and meditate. Is there an old project that you’ve wanted to do for ages? Now is a time to take it off the back burner and pay it a little attention.
