From what I know about Mercury in Libra, if you are one of 18% of people born WITH retrograde in Mercury, you are almost immune to the 3-4 periods of the year of Mercury's retrograde periods. When you're born as the other 82% you are affected by part, if not all of the 24 days in retro but the intricate details of what that affects because I need proof, I cannot help you there.

People born with retrograde cause questions like:
- How doesthat affect me compared to others when mercury is/isn't in retro?
- Do non born retrograders suffer more or less

I'd love to hear the details by the heavily educated too, please. 🙂

great info, now I understand it a little better.

i thought you meant saturn in libra and the retrograde. saturn went into libra, then went retrograde and returned to virgo. it's currently in virgo. it will be turning direct soon and will reenter libra, where it will remain well into 2012.

so yeah, did you mean mercury retrograde or another planet? where you talking about birthcharts or where planets are in the sky right now or recently or soon? they are very different things.

the idea of day to day horoscopes is to compare birthcharts with what's going on right now. that's why basic sun sign horoscopes are usually pretty inaccurate, while a more thorough daily horoscope, like the one you can subscribe to on astrodienst, are generally much more accurate.
