Mercury Retrograde 11-6-2012 to 11-26-2012

Tracking Mercury retrograde can allow you to see firsthand how astrological phenomena represent real life happenings.

Please see this blog post and the linked posts within it for more information about Mercury retrograde.

Mercury Retrograde November 2012 Details

1. Mercury goes retrograde 11-6-2012 3:03 p.m. PST 04 degrees 18 minutes Sagittarius.
2. Mercury goes direct 11-26-2012 2:47 p.m. PST 18 degrees 10 minutes Scorpio.
3. Mercury entered the sign of Sagittarius, in which it is debilitated (symbolically weakened) 10-28-2012 11:18 p.m. PDT. It remains in the sign of Sagittarius until 11-13-2012 11:42 p.m. PST, the first seven days of Mercury retrograde, all but three days of the first half (the more challenging half) of Mercury retrograde. This symbolically makes the usual challenges of Mercury retrograde more pronounced.
4. One positive is that while Mercury is transiting the sign of Sagittarius, it is in mutual reception by rulership with Jupiter. This emblematically mitigates some of the usual challenges referred to above.
5. Another positive is that three days after Mercury begins its transit of Scorpio on 11-13-2012 11:42 p.m. PST its sign ruler, Mars, is exalted in the sign of Capricorn (11-16-2012 6:36 p.m. PST), which helps to representatively fortify Mercury during the second half of Mercury retrograde.

All in all, expect the days leading up to 11-6-2012 when Mercury is about to go retrograde, through the first half of Mercury retrograde to include more noticeable related complications, as outlined in the linked posts above.

Aside from the typical communication mix-ups and other Mercury retrograde related problems, during Mercury retrograde it’s common to find yourself doing these things:

  1. Re-living in your mind important parts of your early life, and a healing breakthrough could take place.
  2. Thinking that maybe your relationship with that certain person could be rekindled (then later regret wasting time on it again).
  3. Mentally re-visiting your past career challenges and failures to finally fully resolve the issues in your mind, express gratitude for the learning experiences, and leave them behind for good.
  4. Re-considering a visit to a foreign land, an idea you had previously shelved.
  5. Unable to make serious progress with new business contacts.
  6. Consumed with business matters and clients from the past.
  7. Gaining new clarity about a long-standing problem and devising new viable solutions.

Being aware of common universal occurrences such as Mercury retrograde, especially how they intermingle with your personal configurations, can allow you to witness the cyclical nature of life and can even help you limit the risk in your business and personal life.

  1. The election could not have been held at a worst time. Hopefully everything will settle down and everyone will move on after mercury goes direct.
