Anyone Already Feeling the Retrograde?
What Does Feeling Retrograde Mean for You
Feeling restless and unmotivated during retrograde is common. It indicates a period of reflection and potential challenges in communication or decision-making. Understanding retrograde can help you navigate these feelings more effectively and use this time for introspection and growth.
Yes! The man I have been talking to has all of a sudden become distant from me. At the same time, I was hanging out with my ex.

On Monday the 24th. I was sort of confused at first because everything was fine before he lost his phone but now I understand the it's mercury retrograde. Also, some people can feel the retrograde early. I felt it.

Is this typical for him. Do you two usually talk a lot?

Nope, I feel fine. Actually just got a new job recently and everything is working out for me.
That's good! That will keep me optimistic. Lol. Congrats btw!! 🙂

It's not typical of him. He usually responds back to me but now he isn't. Weird. He went to Vegas this past weekend and I had strong intuitions that was something was off. I'm just giving him space now since he's not talking to me.
Its a mini emotional rollercoaster ride!
Although that could just be my moon squared thing...
I've just brought a new car and am desperately hoping this won't jinx it!!!

I read somewhere that retrogrades aren't really that big a deal.
I have read the exact opposite. My understanding is that it effects different aspects of our lives each time it occurs, but one common theme is disruption in communication and things moving forward smoothly while it's going on.

Im sorry to hear that. Leave him be, perhaps? Regardless, if it's a result of the retrograde or him just being fickle... Take a step back and give him some space to come for you.

I'm blaming mercury retrograde for my work performance yesterday. I had a simple task, make labels and create folders. Took me forever because I kept screwing it up. :-/ I swear the whole day I felt like I was on that show "Are you smarter than a 5th grader," because I just could not get it together. Today will be better...I hope.
Lol sounds like me yesterday!
Yes, hopefully today will be MUCH better!

Well I guess I was somewhat clumsy today. I didn't grab the bottom lid to a bucket that strains the tuna meat for our subs, and it dropped. A little got on my shoe and some got on to the poor girl's shoes next to me. I felt like an idiot and was apologetic to her. ~.~ I hate when things like that happen. I don't want everyone looking at me if it's me doing something stupid heh.
Hopefully, you did not have you and your co-worker smelling like tuna all day.

Oh no! I am going to read about this....
Yes. When did it start and how long will it last? Hopefully not long. Monday I totaled my truck on my way home from an awful weekend beach get away.
Other parts of my life is out of sorts. I feel very down and withdrawn and feel like my life is back out of my control. I am withdrawing back into my shell wondering what the hell am i being punished for and why am i unable to get things right and things keep happening to me. I guess it is the stupid retrograde. How long does it last?
Wow, just read up on this retro grade and with my Gemini ascendent I am really feeling the retrograde in every aspect it affects and strongly.
Ha! Mercury Retrograde was mentioned in Dexter last night.
People seem more annoying than usual during Mercury Retrograde.
Omg, I just spent the last hour crying over "Sense & Sensibility" 😢

oh that's just lovely .... so I prob wont hear from my scorp till then! fun times SMH
Sorry guys to interrupt, but are endings that occur during the retrogrades generally permanent?.
Thank you Starlover..... Tricky when you were on the receiving end of the ending..... Maybe that's just the way the universe is saying perhaps it's ending because it should... I don't know.... Onwards and upwards I guess....
Mr Moonman my relationship ended abruptly the day after the full moon... The kicker is I'm still unsure as to why?.... My partner said he didn't really know why?, conflicting and upsetting to not really get a rock solid reasoning behind the break up....
Thanks Starlover.... :0)..... Clarity in essence is all we are left wanting for because with out closure we are left with unfinished business and no heart should be made to endure that... Fundamentally its neither right or fair I feel.... Xx
And thank you for your musings Mr Moonman, very constructive, succinct and most welcomed... :0).... And yes it's all to do with where he is at, as only he knows this and is not forthcoming with this knowledge... Maybe I'm just not meant to know?.... And more over, fundamentally as time passes so do feelings and faith in a person who has decided to move on... It's a catch 22 situation.... I still believe in the age old philisophy if some body really wanted to be with you they wouldn't have walked out the door sadly.... Time apart just makes matters worse and leads to more complications some times....
Sure thing... Virgo Sun, Libra Mercury.... FYI I seem to only attract Virgos for some reason—?....
Indeed I am ... :0)... How very interesting... How did that work for you?.
That's a beautiful story, with a happy ending... How fortunate you both are.... :0).... I adore and respect Virgo men, there is always a strong bond and yes we are poles apart in the passion stakes , but I still believe anything is possible if both parties are willing to make sacrifices for each other.... Otherwise this is a very amicable pairing I believe if you both believe in each other and acceptance is key.... :0)
It pleases me that you have found the happiness your heart desires.... Lucky girl... We all deserve this... I wish nothing but the best for you too... :0) ... As for me I'm a realist and believe that I too shall get what I deserve too.... All the best sunshine... Xxx
Sorry for your loss... X
Such a strong woman you are, bless... They are always with you... And I shall.. Thanx for listening and sharing... Much appreciated... :0)... Xxx
We Scorpios are natural healers, tis something that comes naturally to us... :0) Hugs to you.. I shall message... Xx
i felt Retrograde kicking in ...
felt my young energetic playful of myself return again ...
Are we in the eye of the storm so to speak??
I've had several old flings and guys who've always wanted to be more to me get in contact at the start of the retrograde, but since Monday night its been radio silence?!
Like being in the eye of a hurricane I guess...? Or a black hole...?
I'm not too concerned as I am feeling very scattered and on edge and DEFINITELY not reading much into any of the attempts to get back in touch, but its super weird... Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
when does merc rx end ? Getting tired of the traffic jams..
Well, the good news is that the car made it back in one piece (!) but I'm totally and utterly exhausted, as in could seriously just sleep my way through this last 11 days. -Wish I was on holiday!
I'm counting down too...
I managed a flight, boat and automobile trip within 24 hours without dramas on sunday, but I am struggling to sleep, yet exhausted!
Also, still have that weird dynamic of all the ex's getting in touch but the man I was seeing and was having a drawn out parting from go completely MIA. I am guessing that is a good thing in all reality but is so confusing?! But I guess I haven't gotten in touch with him either... I don't know whether I want the clarity of it being all done, but I can't even begin to phrase the question!
Dislocation from my emotions- extremely bizarre for me- is it the the Scorpio Mercury/ Sun being affected?? Taurus moon? Or Libra Venus? All of them perhaps—
Retrograde bubble- weird! 😕
I need some Encouragement! I'm starting a new job on 7/15 during the retrograde and I really would like to stay at this job for a while. I've always been told that you never get married or start a job sign contracts etc during retrograde BUT its not like I have a choice of when I can start the job......sighhhh
There has def been some tension btwn me and my wonderful hubby AND I know its because of the retrograde I'm a Cancer sun & he is a Cancer Moon & Jupiter in Cancer. Typically we r 2 peas in the pod.
Last but not least My Bday is during retrograde 7/13 and I don't even want to celebrate! Sighhhh
what does the retrograde do to cancers?
This has been one CRAZY retrograde....plane, train crashes, Zimmerman trail, death of Glee TV star. Glad its over soon
