What's a Mercury Retrograde Anyway?
In astrology, a retrograde happens when a planet appears to move backward in the sky. During a Mercury retrograde, things like communication, technology, and travel can get a bit wonky. Think of it as the universe hitting pause to give us a chance to review, revise, and improve.

The combination of Aries' energy and Mercury Retrograde may prompt introspection, causing individuals to question themselves and their reality.
