Mercury in retrograde is back for a third (!) time this year—did you miss it? The infamous planet will be retrograde in Virgo between August 23 and September 15, and we're already dreading what it will bring (Exes? Broken phone? Missed flights?).
In astrology, Mercury is a vital planet for our overall experience, as it rules all types of communication as well as our mental processes. When Mercury goes retrograde (which occurs three to four times a year), the way we speak, write, and exchange messages experiences an overhaul. Any change requires an adjustment, and that is exactly what we will be asked to do during these three weeks!
