Mercury goes Retrograde...

today in Kilmore at 1.38am at 21 degrees and 47 minutes of Capricorn.

Wow, we have Mars retrograde for the next few months now Mercury is joining in as well!  Mercury will be retrograde until January 15 and will move all the way back to 5 degrees of Capricorn.  It won't return to 21 degrees of Capricorn (where it goes retrograde) until February 4.

Traditionally this is THE time for gadgets and communication to have problems!  Double check your xmas gifts (especially electronic or electrical ones) for any faults or problems!  It is also not the best time to make final judgements or decisions in your life, or to sign paperwork... not that it is the end of the world if you absolutely have to: it simply means that someone involved in the agreement is likely to change their mind later on down the track or not be able to fulfil their part of the agreement for one reason or another.

As usual, look to see where Mercury is travelling through and which houses are ruled by Mercury (ones with Gemini or Virgo on or in it) to get an idea of where you can expect mix-ups!

If you have personal planets and/or points in Capricorn these themes are likely to be especially prominent in your life.
