Mercury goes Retrograde...

today in Kilmore at 2.06pm.  Mercury at 12 degrees and 37 of Taurus.

Mercury, the planet associated with communication, information, youth, and the mind going backwards suggests that all of these areas of our lives will tend to be a lot slower than usual and sluggish.  This period of time is generally not a good one to make final decisions or agreements with others because we will not be processing information in our usual way.

Generally speaking, this is a better to to plan, research and to gather the information needed to make an informed decision once Mercury is direct again (May 11/12 - depending on where you live). 

As usual, look to see which house Mercury is travelling through as it retrogrades, and also which houses have Gemini or Virgo on the cusps.  If you have personal planets or points in Taurus then you are likely to be especially sensitive to this retrograde period.
