Mercury turns retrograde on 24 Nov 2011

Mercury, the planet that rules communications will turn retrograde on November 24, 2011 in the sunsign Sagittarius. What changes will this movement of Mercury bring to you? Will you gain or lose? Find out!

The key issue during this phase is going to be one of focus. Mercury’s retro phase tends to bring unforeseen changes and blockages, but the frustration that many of us experience during these periods is often due to our own inability to change along with change, so to speak. So, in short, one needs to be extremely focused on oneself and actions.

Unresolved issues from the past tend to push themselves forward. Moreover, these experiences reveal flaws in our internal organisation as well as our external planning, which can make us feel inadequate. Some people actually prosper under a retro Mercury, especially if Mercury is retrograde, but otherwise well-aspected in their birth charts. It is also a time when matters begun under a previous retro period will come to fruition or completion.

Mercury retrograde, like any cosmic aspect, affects people differently, depending on where it hits their personal charts. Since Mercury has backtracked into Sagittarius, most of us will set out on a journey to seek truth. We will find ourselves drawn towards spiritualism and attaining peace. Some of us will be in a questioning frame of mind and will dig deep into our thoughts to connect with the soul.
