A Planet retrogession signifies the backward movement of planet. In reality, the planet is actually not moving backward , but rather is slow or stationary due to some unseen forces. Due to continuous movement of other objects including Earth, sudden stop in movement of the planets make it appear like like backward movement due to relative motion.
Now the question is – so what? why are we discussing ? Answer is simple, Retrograde planets has some different impact on our lives, including physical , mental and emotional levels. For that we need to understand which planet is going retrograde, which in our case is Mercury. Mercury goes retrograde in the zodiac signs three times a year and stays retrograde each time for nearly 3 weeks, and this time which is 3rd for this year, – Mercury is going retrograde in Libra (Tula Rashi) sign) from 27th Sep 2021, i:e. today. Going backward, it will enter back into Virgo during the early hours of October 2, and will turn direct on October 18 in the same sign.
Mercury is significator of – Communication, all forms of communication whether formal or informal, or computer language (code) or travel. Mercury also governs our intelligence, specially the mathematical & analytical part of mind.
So when Mercury gets retrograde, all these areas of our life which is governed by Mercury will get impacted, they get slow. It will impact on our analytical mind and hence decision making capability would get impacted negatively, as well as the communication and expression. The technology advancement would get slow, the communication on the earth would be easily misunderstood. This will not be a favourable time to make any hasty decision or carry out any elaborated travel plans. People often noticed that it is more challenging to interact with others. On the other side, Mercury would go retrograde in Libra, i:e, seventh sign or even 7th house in Kaalpurush kundali.
Due to Mercury retrogression happening in Libra sign, it can lead to heightened emotional intensity. It will force us to slow down, think and find the right balance between the reality and ideation.
You can avoid few things like – involving the communications field, Plans relating to launching a new media outlet, website, or an advertising or publicity campaign should be postponed. Similarly, do not sign any contracts, nor work on any new agreements. The environment will be quite fluid, changeable and at times confusing.
The planet of wisdom, Jupiter coincidentally will also be retrograde in Aquarius as well as in trine relation Mercury for the beginning of the retrograde, so it won’t be too bad and we can see a resurgence of social justice issues over the next few weeks.
It also has a positive that it asks us to slow down from daily routine, ponder on small details that we often miss.
There are few remedies also that can be done during this period to avoid the negative effect, I’m giving below some very easy and cheap ones.
- Donation to poor children or orphan e:g. – food or any education related.
- daily chat 108 times, the Mercury Mantra “Om Budhaaye Namaha”
- Donate green objects
- Fast on Wednesday
- Avoid consuming eggs, meat or alcohol.
