Was I Born During Mercury Retrograde?

Tell me more, tell me more!

Mercury governs communication, technology, transportation and travel. In a chart where Mercury is retrograde, these may be areas where you have to work harder or concentrate. 

If you were born during Mercury retrograde, don’t panic! We have Mercury retrograde in our chart and we’ve been professional writers, public speakers and coders for over two decades. However, we had to overcome some shyness (no doubt fueled by Mercury) to get there.

If you were born with Mercury direct (forward), that doesn’t necessarily make you a consummate communicator or tech whiz. In fact, you may miss a few of the social cues and nuances that Mercury retrograde people have learned (through a few hard lessons) to cue into.

In short, there are not bad charts…only bad people. (We kid—kinda!) Embrace the Mercury you were born with, as it’s here to teach you lessons for your soul’s evolution in this lifetime.
