Retrograde question?
-
So Uranus went retrograde on Friday, and Mercury went retrograde on Saturday. My question is, do we feel the influences of these retrogrades only from the moment they "turn", or can we be influenced by a retrograde in the days/weeks leading up to the retrograde?
-
That is a VERY good question!! I hope that someone answers your question soon; for I would also like to know!!
-
Me too!
-
I do not know the answer for certain but I would have to say a big "Yes" to your question. I actually have been meeting back up with people from my past and always do a few weeks BEFORE retrograde. It begins early for me..
-
That's what I was wondering...because I seem to be experiencing similar with communication issues that started a few weeks before the retrograde happened. I read on this site that things that happen during the Mercury retrograde are temporary...I sure hope so!
-
The same with me - big communication issues started before the Mercury retrograde. I wonder whether they'll finish earlier or later than the official end of this period...Earlier would be handy
-
VoplySoply, I totally agree with you! I had a big communication issue start before the retrograde also...and I would sure like to see it resolved too...and soon!
-
I read from an Astrologer's blog that Retrograde periods start a few weeks or months before. Mercury usually has it's effects two weeks before.

This site doesn't have Uranus though.

Oh! And I guess it also has to do with Mercury in your chart. If he is your ruling planet than the retrograde periods will affect you more. The effects are stronger in the beginning and the end.

GOOD TO KNOW!

Oh well, that makes sense. I'm a cusp...Leo/Virgo. Sun/Leo, Mercury/Virgo. My communication issue started about 3 1/2 weeks before Mercury went retrograde.
And more fun retrograde news...my communication issue had a major breakthrough tonight. Awesome communication.
But the end of the retrograde is still a couple of weeks away...oh, yeah, even further for me...nice...lol...
