Found this article on farmer's almanac. I thought it was a good reference tool.

When Mercury is in retrograde, its influence depends on which of the 12 zodiac signs the planet is in when it goes retrograde. Below is a brief look at what to expect.


There is a time to let things happen and a time to make things happen.

Mercury Retrograde and the Zodiac Signs

IN ARIES: Expect to be frustrated and frazzled. Assertive,Ӭ impulsive Aries wants to moveӬ ahead, and all of the energy is going backward. Watch what you say and how you say it. Pay attention to what people say to you; you might be pleasantly surprised.

IN TAURUS: Take time to formulate your thoughts. Taurus, an unhurried sign, slows down theӬmental processes. He also governs banking, so delay money matters. Review financial matters, and position yourself for growth.

IN GEMINI: Because GeminiӬrules communications, be prepared for miscommunicationsӬ when Mercury is in this sign. Expect lots of phone calls or none, and lost or misplaced mail. You may not articulate clearly, and gossip abounds. Old friends may reconnect.

IN CANCER: Expect annoyances ”¨at home with baking, gardening,”¨ and household duties under domesticated Cancer. Complete repair projects that weren’t finished or done correctly.

IN LEO: Avoid speculative investments. It is not a good time toӬ buy and sell or do any trading.Ӭ Instead, analyze your investmentӬ portfolio. Use your know-how and advisory skills to help friends and associates.

IN VIRGO: Challenging situations arise, especially in the Ӭworkplace. Expect product delays and equipment breakdowns,Ӭ as well as crankiness among coworkers under finicky, detail-oriented Virgo. Double-check your work before you call it finished.

IN LIBRA: Accept your physical”¨ attributes; do not have a makeover. Indecision reigns, so limit”¨ purchases—or risk returning”¨them. Libra, representing beauty, grace, charm, and diplomacy, is out of balance. Refresh, relax, and rejuvenate.

IN SCORPIO: Emotions rule—not common sense—so beware.”¨ Avoid affairs of the heart. Passionate Scorpio is also secretive,”¨and your secrets may seep out. Keep them in a diary.

IN SAGITTARIUS: It is not a time Ӭto travel, so reschedule or expectӬ delays, lines, and lost directions.Ӭ Instead, take care of local affairs.Ӭ Patience and a sense of humor are needed.

IN CAPRICORN: Avoid buying, Ӭselling, or renting real estate unӬder Capricorn, the sign that governs property matters. ExpectӬproblems with paperwork, packing, and movers. Reunite with family or vacation at home.

IN AQUARIUS: With Mercury retrograde in Aquarius, the sign Ӭthat governs relationships, Ӭfriendships are put at risk. PettyӬsquabbles, misunderstandings, and miscommunications abound. Know who your friends are.
