Thanks, Pablisimo. Ra briefly mentioned a few positive things about astrology but it doesn't come up on the forum much. Personally, I'd like to see it discussed more here.
There's a picture in my mind to represent Mercury Retrograde. Picture playing with Lego blocks to build some structures.
I just did a Google image search for Lego and got a huge laugh from the first result.

Now imagine that all of this Lego building happens inside a cargo van. There is plenty of room but the foundation one builds on moves back and forth. When there is a smooth ride down well-built streets, this doesn't really matter.
Mercury Retrograde is when the van bounces over potholes.

Under these conditions anything that is not securely snapped in place will tumble over!
Mercury Retrograde shakes us up so that we can notice whatever we left unconnected. Perhaps we already have a plugged-together plan or concept that we can use, which got overlooked. Or it's time to take the loose pieces and figure out what we want to do with them.
