So true! I am bogged down with thinking, I am tired of thinking!!!!!! I also try not to offend people with what I say, and am always SHOCKED every time other people are so out spoken in rude ways!!!!! I'm like that's not fair, I would never do or say those things!!!!!! Then again I also have libra mid heaven, and Mars in libra. I am quiet and it's hard for me to get my words out sometimes. I have to study my surroundings first and I constantly teach my daughter through direct communication. I do feel like a freaking genius as well!
oh god, that is so true! i am always thinking, calculating, considering things. a simple question can send my mind into a frenzy. i was that student with the stack of flashcards, dotting all my i's and crossing my t's, and then going back to double check once more, and triple checking once again until it felt right. it was not OCD, as i'm actually a very sloppy and lazy person (venus in 5th). but when it comes to things i care about, it's borderline obsessive. i really struggled in grad school because of that as i didn't always have time to be that meticulous, so i had a lot of nervous energy. my mind is constantly making connections with the past and present. even something simple like the way a can is opened will make old memories and faces where i heard something similar flash across my mind. i get very nostalgic and started a blog to let out all that deadweight. that's also why i started trying to take up meditation to deal with the stress. lolol. my dad tells me to stop thinking so much.
You just described me lol. Even though I didn't have flash cards, but yea I always check things 2 to 3 times. The blogging, right on point. But nowadays some people read my blog, so I am unable to find an outlet and writing is liking breathing to me. I am unable to write diaries cos my family is very prying. Online nowadays not so much🙄Let me know if there is any alternative to it. Although I may be on the verge of finding an outlet for my thoughts.Edited to add I love apples too😊 Is that a mercury retro thing?
Meditation will definitely help you. I noticed that Yoga helped me a lot in school and then meditation in college was a blessing. Both things just catapulted my growth when I started them. Because of meditation, I am able to resist urges to think back or think about past events, I do not do that anymore. In fact, I have forgotten most of the stuff in the past while people remember it and definitely do not remember conversations only the gist of it and how all of that made me feel and the insights, I definitely remember facts. I made efforts to live spontaneously and in present. But I have observed that if I let that happen to think back on something it does start the vicious cycle and I have to make conscious effort to break it though this doesn't happen anymore. I too am very particular about making mistakes and if I do I definitely di nit want to repeat it.
Definitely describes me. Perfectionist, quiet, careful with my choice of words, always thinking, studying, excellent grades K-College, even in the military.
I do the same thing! I’m extremely hard on myself in the areas of communication and communication in general gives me anxiety. I have it retrograde in Scorpio in the 10th only making three minor aspects.
I have Mercury retrograde in cancer in my 8th house and this is SOOOOOOOO me. I am CONSTANTLY reflecting and it gets a little overwhelming. I get anxiety from it sometimes.
So true i have mercury Rx in virgo with sun and mars as well.. I am often misunderstood in family with spouse as well but my close friend and younger sibling gets me... Like no one else..
@@Pr.nce_youngg but i have mercury retrograde in virgo 6th house and along with sun and mars... I have so much similarities with virgo in my character and in my life. My communication is excellent everyone around me come to me to draft letters and emails.. Good in negotiation skill too.. I Don't know why.. Although i think my communication is below average and constantly wanting to improve it🤣. If i have any enemies they just fall by themselves i don't do a thing i just ignore because i don't think they are enemies... I just think we have different ideologies and views and don't involve in workplace politics at all.. don't believe in pulling down someone to get to the top.
@@Pr.nce_youngg i don't know my ascendent, aries moonsign... I guess mercury doesn't do well in water element as its air element or may b because its 8th house it gives u these results i guess... Improve ur mercury help children or ur siblings if u have any
Excellent analysis I have mercury retrograde and I always am cautious about screwing up convos and I am an Introvert cause I think much much more before I speak
I have all the planets retrograde except venus :D I have observed that I had a hard time aligning myself in childhood, everything used to be intense and I did use to overthink, but I feel that has helped me be mature than people around me and deeper in in terms of insights and analysis where most people struggle and quite good intuition. I have noticed that my mind just connects the information I don't even have to think and I know what will happen in future (not like a fortune teller) if a certain path is taken or if something happens I accurately judge what is going on, I do not know if it is because of retro mercury but it is a blessing. Now I am like this is I am, take it or leave it, most people don't get me but appriciate :D
That is great. You must have a unique chart. Hey, just wanted to check with you if it's alright for you to share your Time, Place, and Date of Birth with me. I am an Astrology researcher and my area of interest is Career. If it is alright with you I would like your particulars and a brief overview of your career. Thanks a lot.
Enjoying finding all your old content. Mercury Rx here, 3H. Definitely resonate with the careful/eloquent communication and overthinking aspects you mentioned. But I also have Venus and Jupiter in the 3H, so not entirely shy or over studious.
I definitely do this. My Mercury is retrograde in Aquarius in my fourth house next to my Sun. I am obsessively analyzing my words to be as concise as possible without offending anyone. I interview really well as a result. It could be worse! :)
my son has this...trying to understand him...he had to pushed...to learn how read, and he stuttered and only I could understand him...for his first 10 years..He DID show a tendency to be silent and careful about what he says, but he also shows an inflexibility of mind and he has an 8th house Mars which I think causes RASH decisions that cause sudden trauma..so he was right to be careful..but in the end...he did make rash decision that he had no right to make that caused destruction to our family, and he harmed his little sister with his arrogance, and rash behavior.....so I hope he thinks that one over...for the rest of his life..
I think my son's Mercury..is derailed possibly by being squared by Jupiter.. His Merc (in rebellious SAG) is conj his 11th cusp...so maybe he is only carefully thinking about his social life..and not his family life or other matters? His Merc retro is also semi square his Neptune conj ASC...so possibly this causes him to be a float with illusions/confusion?
This is spot om for me. My mercury is retrograding through my fifth house. Kids usually like to play or talk with me but I don’t have own kids. I also think about what I did wrong in the past to be better for the future. And I also think a lot before saying something. One time when I didn’t think much it made me loose my girlfriend so now I think about that situation a lot. I really don’t want it to happen again with future girlfriends so I am improving myself😊
Wow. Yes, I think so very fast when it comes to answering questions or saying something. It keeps me from not exposing too much or something I shouldn't say. I do judge the present with the past, but it's not bad. It helps me gauge things
I have mercury retro in the 10th house in virgo conjunct sun. like you said kapiel, I find myself reflecting alot on how i come across and what i said specially at work.And i find it hard to articulate what I want to say. It seems to always come out wrong. But my mind is quite sharp and can pick things up quickly, but I am not able to express it externally. I prefer to write emails rather than talk in person.and I have so much internal dialog in my head.. like i am having conversations with self...And of course i worry alot about my words offending people. especially since i have mars opposite in the 4th...
Now I understand 😁 This is such a relief...I have mercury retrograde in my 7th house in libra and I was always reflecting on relationships or when I communicate with a partner...I get it now 😊 finally 🎉🎊
Although this is 7 years prior to "the now." It's still very much true. The aspects are spot on, the description of the thought process. People usually think either somethings wrong, or way too indecisive.
Mercury (R) in virgo 11th house.. It went retrograde the day before my birthday. Always feel like during the retrograde periods, I speak better, and I never had any problems with it... Except work contracts. Always go through what I said, no matter who I talked to. I remember every sentence and I go through how I responded and even their facial expression and reaction. I remember things from when I was a baby. Hard time remembering names, but I remember numbers. I forget titles and singers of songs, but I remember all the notes and the lyrics. I have a sense for details, if the subject interests me. If not, I am sloppy.
Born w/ Mercury retro in Leo 4 degrees from the Sun pulling away. I was misunderstood by adults as a child so I gave or did symbolic acts and it was in their ball court if they understood or not and I went about my play. Intuition was everything to me. If my heart said so it was FACT. Mercury went direct when I was 11 and then my analysis of situations kicked in. Much of what u said is true after age 11..
I have Mercury Retrograde in Gemini! I guess it is retrograde because in my horoscope from your site their is a big `R` after it. And I totally find myself in this. Constantly thinking with speaking at the same time. Making sure I`m getting every aspect right. Also with learning. I get the highest scores and people want to have my summery`s all the time.
So True.... I am Mercury retrograde in Libra in 11th house and yes I even overthink before communication I always keep my bad past experiences in my mind and I hv trust issues too. Also I remain confuse before taking final decision. I thought a lot in everything. But this makes me perfect and people believe that I am very sharp and intelligent. They don't know how much I think before act. Thank you so much for this knowledge. 🙏❤️
This was helpful, thank you. I have natal cancer (10th house) retrograde. I relate to the descriptions of mercury pisces. I 'feel' things and understand the essence/overall qualities of situations. I struggle heavily with details and recollection unless it was something of personal significance to me.
I have merc retrogade too..... I don't have any problem academically, im rather good at maths, even though I can never do quick mental calculatns, I used to be very quiet in school, in college I decided to b more outgoing, but I realised that when I talkd without thinking, I only talked crap. Later, I became my quiet self again and gradually got good friends. I still get tongue tied and awkward when someone suddenly asks me a question though,
Im Mercery retrograde in Aries, but im nothing like that. If anything im always miss understood or when i tell people something by words or speach people always miss understand me or twist what i say in to something totally fabricated and cause me prolems when meetting new people. i have adhd and dyslexia. but i never think of the past except what i miss about the past like having my own house and privacy in my own room and all the stuff i had before i lost my home i grew up in lol. but im always just thinking in the now and some times what the futur might bring. but usully im just in to video games and spirituality and the universes. But when i do talk to people nearly every time people just talk over me or don't hear me at all or don't lisin, but i realize everyone i met are bipolar and have mental disordesr and anti social behavor and don't know how to talk to people. but thats mostly everyone now days i come across people like to think theyknow everything about a stranger they just met and judge me right away and try to give me advice on what i should be doing when i didn't ask them and they have no idea whats going on in my life people always push there crazy idias on me... I know this has to do with few planets i have in retrograde that make things more difficult for me to deal with people when im just minding my own bussniss sitting in the library or star bucks people are just attacted to me and bring negativity and criticism and be nosy about what im reading or doing on my phone or computer, or strange people that usually always look like a meth head that robbed a store always just try to use any excuse to start talk to me like if its storming and power starts going out in a fast food place im like wow its starting or of no the powers going out, they quicky say to me yeah that looks bad you got somewhere to need to go? then it starts and then they want to know everything about me or where im going. its always a cracked out cupple with drama or drunk people that want o sit with me and just invite them self to my table or if im at the pawn shop or library here comes a strange annoying person that ends up being racist or judgemental trash talking everyone to me or asking me what im eating and telling me there whole personal lives or drama they got going on. shit i don't know yall why you pick me to tell her drunk alcohal baby mama drama everywhere i go.. >_> i hardly ever get nice normal quiet people that are intrested in things im in to. I get the crazy ones or ones that are on the street tweeking that want to fallow me when i go walking and for some reason they think i want to talk to them and they call me friend or flirt some times when they just saaw me eating a burger or in the bathroom at the store weird stuff happens
Gemini ascendant with Mercury (R) 11th house Aries in my Mercury Mada Dasha. Long term planning goals on fire but short term execution has been a struggle.
Yes, I was almost mute as a young child, so careful before I spoke if I even did. Quiet but I sure the heck can't stop thinking. I do talk now though, broke through that early on lack of tongue.
I was born on a Mercury Retrograde in Virgo conjunct Sun in the 3rd house. I was born on a Wednesday which is ruled by Mercury, I consider my self a Genius.
I have debilitated and retrograde mercury in 6th house. In examination while dealing with numerical questions I always use to verify and recheck my answers even though I have use scientific calculator.As some of my classmates said they did't do that and later on realized they went wrong.So I do agree with you as I scored little better.
Born during Merc Retrograde in Sagittarius. 2nd house. Conjunct Mars. The absolute worst. Not only are my words confusing, but agressive when the person that I'm speaking with doesn't understand. The worst. Constant struggle and i am constantly affected by my past. Almost like i live there.
veruca salt hmm mars in saggi, your hot blooded.... too bad you do not have a saturn or jupiter congratulation to temper your mars. I have mars in Sagittarius too but conjunction saturn and mercury and moon Conjunct in Capricorn
veruca salt so basically you pop off and just spit w.e comes to mind when angry, I'll hit you with a sore spot from 10yrs ago the person thought was forgotten,lol mercury retro is awesome
Met someone with combust mercury retrograde following an unfortunate relationship and you're on point with the constant questioning, confusion, and assuming the worst based on their past experience. Unfortunately, it manifested as extreme and constant self-sabotaging behavior.
I'm mercury retrograde in Pisces, 4th house. That's the first time I hear that it can be a good thing: Pisces is too fluid and I always felt overcareful with words and thinking. That restraints Pisces in swimming too much.
Namaste Every wednesday morning, we can chant Budh Graha(Mercury) beej mantra 108 times facing North This will strengthen the graha in our horoscope. ॐ ब्रां ब्रीं ब्रौं सः बुधाय नमः ॥ Om Braam Breem Braum Sah Budhay Namaha Chanting Vishnu Sahasranaam and donating money for children’s education are two other ways of strengthening the graha Thanks
Mercury in retrograde in Aquarius in the first house. I'm very cautious of how I'm perceived by others, my appearance, and the way I talk. My rational mind is on point though! I'm like the smartest in my College Algebra class.
Well, my ex boyfriend had Mercury retrograde in Aquarius in the 5th house and apart from acting most of the time pretty much like a child, an infant, his communication and thinking process was similar to people with Asperger’s syndrome. However, he had a PhD in Mechanical Engineering.
.I have also o Mecury retrograde in Scorpio (besides also the Sun in Scorpio) and I have many problems with learning and comunitacion, sometimes very funny ( I say "left" instead of "right", I understand some other meaning of a word mentioned, etc. :), I need everything, what I learn, to be somehow emotional "colored" and to be involved in a more general kind of information (a "whole").If not, I just don t learn it.
Wow I have a mercury retrograde in my birth chart and currently an undergrad student. This is so true!!!! I’m always the last one to get done on a test due to me double checking but I always make B’s-A’s!
Job interviews are my biggest challenge because I can’t just sit there and carefully think about what I’m going to say. Its ruining my life...I avoid interviews like the plague until I’m forced to have to just go and get it over with. Because of this, I tend to just accept the first offer and then end up hating where I work. Its a vicious cycle. Ugh!
The “high score” part isn’t true for me.. that’s because I overanalyze so much and am so careful with everything that it actually leads to mistakes. Fear of failure becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy in this case and it can also make me very confused about what I was trying to analyze in the first place
@Robin Brs that wasn't nice... You're clearly a dick. I'm not slow to understand.. Niether is she, she just innerstood differently than most basic mercury signs.
Never a person ever talked so much sense about the REALITy as you have just done :) THANKS AGAIN! I will for sure check all your videos and info, actually you are so much right as none :) Wow... i actually ate all the guts in my ex with this tinking and trying to understand and comprehend every single step of everything. And then i ate my gut out, when he left me. Superb... really.. easier to live, when you know.. that it is just my retro Mercury :) uff. THAAAAAAAAAAAAANKS!
My mercury is retrograde and combust! In 9th house (Aries). This is exactly me, always calculating.. Think a lot. I think about so many dimensions. Very careful and love detailing. But it makes me very very bad in mathematics and multiple choice questions. 😨
I was born under 8 retrogrades if you're including the north node and chiron. I have mercury and venus in gemini in my 1st house BOTH retrograde which i was told is kind of rare for both to be retrograde at the same time. But i find retrogrades to feel harmonious. I tend to have good luck where as others are freaking out about retrogrades, i feel a direct is unharmonious for me as others feel normal. But your description is true. I tend to very much focus on my looks. I have a 1st house stellium with ascendant(gemini), mercury Rx(Gemini), venus Rx(Gemini), chiron Rx(cancer) and sun (cancer) . Im into the arts, modeling and make up, and i like to articulate my words to appear smart and witty to others. 😁
I disagree with you when you say you would rather have mercury retrograde, I think there are other placements that promote careful thinking in a way that's much less "dwelling on the past" as you indicated. Saturn interacting with communication gives great results imo. I think mercury acts best when it's given freedom to look ahead.
I always double or triple check my door lock before going out.Confused as hell. Over thinking, always judging myself....you r on point. My mercury is in pisces 1st house. 😐
If I don't check twice , I go half way n come back to check again If I have locked it or else I call n ask someone else to check if the door is locked or not ... Such a pissing life, most of the time I, I think I will die of overthinking
HEY MAN! I have Mercury retrograde in my birth chart. Mercury in Gemini 29 degrees. I've been getting really Paranoid about this "Anertic Stage" Can You PLEASE respond with any information on this or even a video? THANKS!
HURAAAAAAHHHHH!!! Your are GENIUOS!!!! I have the Retro Mercury in Taurus. I am really thinking in 3 parallels while talking! And with my Moon in Cancer i am easily insulted and keep FOR AGES boiling about my pains and failures! Once talking to a psychologist, she told, that she cannot understand what is the cause, but seems i keep on and on going around one and the same thing. She thought something is wrong with me.
Although they are not fast thinkers, here's a positive thing about this, people like that can become very tricky, cunning and are capable of finding cracks where other people just passes them, I am impressed how many shortcuts, cracks and exploits I can find in video-games, rules, places, contracts and so on, people sometimes ask me how did I discover this or who show you this. Finding easter-eggs is like a second nature, and when I think a choice I think in how many permutations it has, there fore I am able to find innovative ways to do common tasks.
I have mercury retrograde in my birth chart in my 3rd house which made me overthink before speak...Sometime I felt confused when someone talked to me..i overanalyzing the answer .
Ty for this. I have Mercury's in retrograde gemini stellium. I also have Uranus Pluto and Neptune in retro at birth. I did further research and I believe during conception Jupiter and Venus were in retro. I wonder if that has any effect. As Leo in my 5th. Thankful Saturn was no were in site. As Saturn in 4th and Mars, Jupiter and Chiron in Aries. The soul places no more than we can bare🙏
I have retrograded planets in my birth chart and when the planets are retrograded I just feel like things are slower.. not crazy but people who are prolly not conscious mess up more ? Idk whatever ..
I'm a Leo ascendant with a Leo sun. I LOVE talking but I feel like nothing like my signs most of the time. The funny thing is, my mercury placement is actually good. I have Mercury and Rahu conjunct together in the 2nd house in the sign of Virgo. These placements for perfect for very vocal people. But as I have a retrograde Mercury and cancer moon and venus in 12th house is perhaps the reason why I'm so socially awkward and an introvert. I prepare any talk even when I'm playing games. However, when I'm home and among my closest people, I do act like the lion. And I always wanted to be a public speaker.
(2) I had a lot of difficluties with it at school, althought I am still reflecting about something, my IQ is very high - and I have at least an impression that I see very deep to others mind and I feel many things, which are coming, I am just not able to use it:(....
you are absolutely right. it s happening to me, every word of your is right. Please tell me any remedies.. my mercury is on virgo in 12th house and it s in 10degree with Sun(18 degree), venus (14 degree), saturn (29.55 degree).
My son's mercury is retrograde AND combust in the 5th house. Venus combust, jupiter combust with the sun, all in the 5th house. Mars combust in the 11th house. Looking at these details of his chart makes me really understand his struggles. Yikes!
That explains why i favor written communication than sudden phone calls or one-on-one communication. I have to think about the answer before replying. So when someone calls i would be looking at my cell asking all kinds of questions...why are they calling now, what do they want to talk about? etc. Then I'm also those people who think of a clever answer that I would have said hours after a conversation/argument is over🤣🤣Mercury retrograde in 7th house
I have retrograde Mercury conjunct with Sun Saturn Rahu in Taurus sign. And my retrograde Mercury holds lowest degree in the conjunction. And I was born on Wednesday.
I Have Mercury retrograde in my natal chart and it's in a stellium with Mars Uranus Neptune and the Sun so I'm wondering does that one retrograde planet affect the rest of the planets that are in the stellium with it ? I'm just assuming it does but I thought you might have something to add to that and it's in the 11th house Capricorn
I have been trying to figure out what a mercury retrograde is... This only affects Scorpio and Sag...right? Mine is in Libra. I assume I dont have to deal with this...
Me too, I switch off the lights and electricity before leave the house but still will check before go whether everything locked properly. Also when do the spell check, because sometimes we can't trust our own eyes! Also with children's always alert and advise them to study and do revision earlier before the exam date as do wan them to do the same mistake I did, study last minutes and "black out"🥴🙃 you know its take time to compose to normal! I got retrograde Jupiter, mercury and Neptune/ketu🤦more to self enlightment it seems!
May not affect some people when mercury goes retrograde, but its been interesting for me. I had no idea it was happening, but when I looked back at things in my life during the last year, its apparent I have been significantly affected by retrograde mercury, specifically when it went conjunct with sun, not only to the day but almost perfectly to the hour! possibly just a coincidence. I guess it has something to do with mercury being the strongest and most important planet in my BC.
KRS, that ws superb ma'an. I don't hv Mercury retro, however my spouse chart has mercury retro in h7 n I m indeed thinking rethinking cautious as to hw I will raise a given issue with my spouse. This actually drains my energy. N this wen I don't hv me retro. N yes, my spouse also measures his words b4 talking to me. It's not good to hv me retro in marital relationships. One shd be natural n simple in conversations, specifically to spouse.
I have mercury in retrograde in conjunction with the sun, in my 1st house. However I read this basically means someone with learning difficulties and slow. This really upsets me as I always thought of myself as being very smart and been told by people.
Sir my daughter is autistic her mercury is retrograde and combust 16° conjunction with saturn 19° sun 15° and rahu 13° in 10th house for capricorn ascendant and virgo sign. Ketu in 4th house and mars in 8th house 15° jupiter in 6th house 26° and venus 2° in 12th house .how much bad effect jupiter mercury ketu and venues gives

I am an Astrology researcher and my area of interest is Career. If it is alright with you I would like your particulars and a brief overview of your career. Thanks a lot.
Enjoying finding all your old content. Mercury Rx here, 3H. Definitely resonate with the careful/eloquent communication and overthinking aspects you mentioned. But I also have Venus and Jupiter in the 3H, so not entirely shy or over studious.
Anxiety is part and parcel of people withe mercury retrogrades.
I myself have a mercury retrograde in my birth chart, and this is exactly how it is. So accurate and precise description.
I definitely do this. My Mercury is retrograde in Aquarius in my fourth house next to my Sun. I am obsessively analyzing my words to be as concise as possible without offending anyone. I interview really well as a result. It could be worse! :)
I am Mercury Retrograde in my horoscope ..........you are bang on the buck ....loved it !
my son has this...trying to understand him...he had to pushed...to learn how read, and he stuttered and only I could understand him...for his first 10 years..He DID show a tendency to be silent and careful about what he says, but he also shows an inflexibility of mind and he has an 8th house Mars which I think causes RASH decisions that cause sudden trauma..so he was right to be careful..but in the end...he did make rash decision that he had no right to make that caused destruction to our family, and he harmed his little sister with his arrogance, and rash behavior.....so I hope he thinks that one over...for the rest of his life..
I think my son's Mercury..is derailed possibly by being squared by Jupiter..
His Merc (in rebellious SAG) is conj his 11th cusp...so maybe he is only carefully thinking about his social life..and not his family life or other matters?
His Merc retro is also semi square his Neptune conj ASC...so possibly this causes him to be a float with illusions/confusion?
This is spot om for me. My mercury is retrograding through my fifth house. Kids usually like to play or talk with me but I don’t have own kids. I also think about what I did wrong in the past to be better for the future. And I also think a lot before saying something. One time when I didn’t think much it made me loose my girlfriend so now I think about that situation a lot. I really don’t want it to happen again with future girlfriends so I am improving myself😊
Wow. Yes, I think so very fast when it comes to answering questions or saying something. It keeps me from not exposing too much or something I shouldn't say.
I do judge the present with the past, but it's not bad. It helps me gauge things
I have mercury retro in the 10th house in virgo conjunct sun. like you said kapiel, I find myself reflecting alot on how i come across and what i said specially at work.And i find it hard to articulate what I want to say. It seems to always come out wrong. But my mind is quite sharp and can pick things up quickly, but I am not able to express it externally. I prefer to write emails rather than talk in person.and I have so much internal dialog in my head.. like i am having conversations with self...And of course i worry alot about my words offending people. especially since i have mars opposite in the 4th...
how do you find out of you have a retrograde planet?
nads008able sun conjunct mercury is good (it would create Bhudayadhitya yoga). If sun should not burn Mercury. It depends on degree of conjunct
I have this placement as well in the 10th house. Sun conjunct mercury retrograde 🤭
Now I understand 😁 This is such a relief...I have mercury retrograde in my 7th house in libra and I was always reflecting on relationships or when I communicate with a partner...I get it now 😊 finally 🎉🎊
Although this is 7 years prior to "the now." It's still very much true. The aspects are spot on, the description of the thought process. People usually think either somethings wrong, or way too indecisive.
Mercury (R) in virgo 11th house.. It went retrograde the day before my birthday. Always feel like during the retrograde periods, I speak better, and I never had any problems with it... Except work contracts. Always go through what I said, no matter who I talked to. I remember every sentence and I go through how I responded and even their facial expression and reaction. I remember things from when I was a baby. Hard time remembering names, but I remember numbers. I forget titles and singers of songs, but I remember all the notes and the lyrics. I have a sense for details, if the subject interests me. If not, I am sloppy.
This is absolutely true!! From now onwards I shall be happy to have so in my birth chart
Born w/ Mercury retro in Leo 4 degrees from the Sun pulling away. I was misunderstood by adults as a child so I gave or did symbolic acts and it was in their ball court if they understood or not and I went about my play. Intuition was everything to me. If my heart said so it was FACT. Mercury went direct when I was 11 and then my analysis of situations kicked in. Much of what u said is true after age 11..
U r the best Astrologer I hv ever seen. I can always relate to ur predictions only. Ur predictions are the most accurate
I have Mercury Retrograde in Gemini! I guess it is retrograde because in my horoscope from your site their is a big `R` after it. And I totally find myself in this. Constantly thinking with speaking at the same time. Making sure I`m getting every aspect right. Also with learning. I get the highest scores and people want to have my summery`s all the time.
I am here to learn So do I! Great minds...🤓😉😎
❤
Did u go thru ur mercury mahadasha ... If yes plz share ur experience ...🙏
So True.... I am Mercury retrograde in Libra in 11th house and yes I even overthink before communication I always keep my bad past experiences in my mind and I hv trust issues too. Also I remain confuse before taking final decision. I thought a lot in everything. But this makes me perfect and people believe that I am very sharp and intelligent. They don't know how much I think before act. Thank you so much for this knowledge. 🙏❤️
This was helpful, thank you. I have natal cancer (10th house) retrograde. I relate to the descriptions of mercury pisces. I 'feel' things and understand the essence/overall qualities of situations. I struggle heavily with details and recollection unless it was something of personal significance to me.
Hey fellow Libra rising here, I have the same placement.
I am also Gemini Sun and Scorpio moon
I have merc retrogade too..... I don't have any problem academically, im rather good at maths, even though I can never do quick mental calculatns, I used to be very quiet in school, in college I decided to b more outgoing, but I realised that when I talkd without thinking, I only talked crap. Later, I became my quiet self again and gradually got good friends. I still get tongue tied and awkward when someone suddenly asks me a question though,
Exact ...spot on
Im Mercery retrograde in Aries, but im nothing like that. If anything im always miss understood or when i tell people something by words or speach people always miss understand me or twist what i say in to something totally fabricated and cause me prolems when meetting new people. i have adhd and dyslexia. but i never think of the past except what i miss about the past like having my own house and privacy in my own room and all the stuff i had before i lost my home i grew up in lol. but im always just thinking in the now and some times what the futur might bring. but usully im just in to video games and spirituality and the universes. But when i do talk to people nearly every time people just talk over me or don't hear me at all or don't lisin, but i realize everyone i met are bipolar and have mental disordesr and anti social behavor and don't know how to talk to people. but thats mostly everyone now days i come across people like to think theyknow everything about a stranger they just met and judge me right away and try to give me advice on what i should be doing when i didn't ask them and they have no idea whats going on in my life people always push there crazy idias on me... I know this has to do with few planets i have in retrograde that make things more difficult for me to deal with people when im just minding my own bussniss sitting in the library or star bucks people are just attacted to me and bring negativity and criticism and be nosy about what im reading or doing on my phone or computer, or strange people that usually always look like a meth head that robbed a store always just try to use any excuse to start talk to me like if its storming and power starts going out in a fast food place im like wow its starting or of no the powers going out, they quicky say to me yeah that looks bad you got somewhere to need to go? then it starts and then they want to know everything about me or where im going. its always a cracked out cupple with drama or drunk people that want o sit with me and just invite them self to my table or if im at the pawn shop or library here comes a strange annoying person that ends up being racist or judgemental trash talking everyone to me or asking me what im eating and telling me there whole personal lives or drama they got going on. shit i don't know yall why you pick me to tell her drunk alcohal baby mama drama everywhere i go.. >_> i hardly ever get nice normal quiet people that are intrested in things im in to. I get the crazy ones or ones that are on the street tweeking that want to fallow me when i go walking and for some reason they think i want to talk to them and they call me friend or flirt some times when they just saaw me eating a burger or in the bathroom at the store weird stuff happens
I have a Mercury Retrograde in the 10th house of Gemini and I feel crazy powerful and at home during Mercury Retrograde periods, it is awesome.
I have mer retro in Gemini as well ... Have u been thru ur mercury mahadasha ???? If yes plz lemme knw ur experience ...
Gemini ascendant with Mercury (R) 11th house Aries in my Mercury Mada Dasha. Long term planning goals on fire but short term execution has been a struggle.
Yes, I was almost mute as a young child, so careful before I spoke if I even did. Quiet but I sure the heck can't stop thinking. I do talk now though, broke through that early on lack of tongue.
Totally resonate with this comment of yours!!!
I was born on a Mercury Retrograde in Virgo conjunct Sun in the 3rd house. I was born on a Wednesday which is ruled by Mercury, I consider my self a Genius.
did u go through dasha of mercury
Is there any problem with your younger siblings???
I have debilitated and retrograde mercury in 6th house. In examination while dealing with numerical questions I always use to verify and recheck my answers even though I have use scientific calculator.As some of my classmates said they did't do that and later on realized they went wrong.So I do agree with you as I scored little better.
Bro can your share your 10th and 12th class percentage please🙏
….Well, that explains a lot.
Born during Merc Retrograde in Sagittarius. 2nd house. Conjunct Mars. The absolute worst. Not only are my words confusing, but agressive when the person that I'm speaking with doesn't understand. The worst. Constant struggle and i am constantly affected by my past. Almost like i live there.
Mars in Sagittarius by the way. I can be extremely volatile and hurtful with my words. Mean.
veruca salt hmm mars in saggi, your hot blooded.... too bad you do not have a saturn or jupiter congratulation to temper your mars. I have mars in Sagittarius too but conjunction saturn and mercury and moon Conjunct in Capricorn
veruca salt so basically you pop off and just spit w.e comes to mind when angry, I'll hit you with a sore spot from 10yrs ago the person thought was forgotten,lol mercury retro is awesome
Your second house also affects your speech.
Met someone with combust mercury retrograde following an unfortunate relationship and you're on point with the constant questioning, confusion, and assuming the worst based on their past experience. Unfortunately, it manifested as extreme and constant self-sabotaging behavior.
because of this video i looked up other retrogrades on my birthday and it made things make sense
Mercury retrograde in first house of Capricorn, no wonder ppl assume I’m so slow lol
Me too, I ve mercury retro in my 1st house of capricorn and my friends tells me how I am slow when I talk
I ALWAYS ask myself "what am i doing wrong?" i literally ask myself this every fucking day. Crazy.
I'm mercury retrograde in Pisces, 4th house. That's the first time I hear that it can be a good thing: Pisces is too fluid and I always felt overcareful with words and thinking. That restraints Pisces in swimming too much.
Namaste
Every wednesday morning, we can chant Budh Graha(Mercury) beej mantra 108 times facing North
This will strengthen the graha in our horoscope.
ॐ ब्रां ब्रीं ब्रौं सः बुधाय नमः ॥
Om Braam Breem Braum Sah Budhay Namaha
Chanting Vishnu Sahasranaam and donating money for children’s education are two other ways of strengthening the graha
Thanks
Mercury in retrograde in Aquarius in the first house. I'm very cautious of how I'm perceived by others, my appearance, and the way I talk. My rational mind is on point though! I'm like the smartest in my College Algebra class.
Well, my ex boyfriend had Mercury retrograde in Aquarius in the 5th house and apart from acting most of the time pretty much like a child, an infant, his communication and thinking process was similar to people with Asperger’s syndrome. However, he had a PhD in Mechanical Engineering.
My Vedic chart shows I have Mercury Retrograde in Virgo (11th house)
I have mercury retrograde in Pisces which means it's debilitated. But this resonate a lot more than the debilitated mercury in Pisces.
.I have also o Mecury retrograde in Scorpio (besides also the Sun in Scorpio) and I have many problems with learning and comunitacion, sometimes very funny ( I say "left" instead of "right", I understand some other meaning of a word mentioned, etc. :), I need everything, what I learn, to be somehow emotional "colored" and to be involved in a more general kind of information (a "whole").If not, I just don t learn it.
Wow I have a mercury retrograde in my birth chart and currently an undergrad student. This is so true!!!! I’m always the last one to get done on a test due to me double checking but I always make B’s-A’s!
Job interviews are my biggest challenge because I can’t just sit there and carefully think about what I’m going to say. Its ruining my life...I avoid interviews like the plague until I’m forced to have to just go and get it over with. Because of this, I tend to just accept the first offer and then end up hating where I work. Its a vicious cycle. Ugh!
The “high score” part isn’t true for me.. that’s because I overanalyze so much and am so careful with everything that it actually leads to mistakes. Fear of failure becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy in this case and it can also make me very confused about what I was trying to analyze in the first place
I have Mercury in Scorpio, and I LOVE maths... and pshisycs.
I have mercury retrograde in my birth chart and nothing happens to me at all. I see so many people around me getting affected.
@Robin Brs that wasn't nice... You're clearly a dick. I'm not slow to understand.. Niether is she, she just innerstood differently than most basic mercury signs.
@Robin Brs also, it has nothing to do with being slow to understand.. And everything to do with the inward way of grasping a concept.
Never a person ever talked so much sense about the REALITy as you have just done :) THANKS AGAIN! I will for sure check all your videos and info, actually you are so much right as none :) Wow... i actually ate all the guts in my ex with this tinking and trying to understand and comprehend every single step of everything. And then i ate my gut out, when he left me. Superb... really.. easier to live, when you know.. that it is just my retro Mercury :) uff. THAAAAAAAAAAAAANKS!
I have Mercury retrograde in the 6th house under sign of cancer
You did not say anything about Mercury retrograde in 11th house in Virgo for Scorpio ascendant
How do we find out if it was in retrograde in our charts
i'm a recovering overthinker! lol
thanks for the video!!
My mercury is retrograde and combust! In 9th house (Aries).
This is exactly me, always calculating.. Think a lot. I think about so many dimensions. Very careful and love detailing.
But it makes me very very bad in mathematics and multiple choice questions. 😨
😂😂😂😂😂
Same here😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😄
Same here
I was born under 8 retrogrades if you're including the north node and chiron. I have mercury and venus in gemini in my 1st house BOTH retrograde which i was told is kind of rare for both to be retrograde at the same time. But i find retrogrades to feel harmonious. I tend to have good luck where as others are freaking out about retrogrades, i feel a direct is unharmonious for me as others feel normal. But your description is true. I tend to very much focus on my looks. I have a 1st house stellium with ascendant(gemini), mercury Rx(Gemini), venus Rx(Gemini), chiron Rx(cancer) and sun (cancer) . Im into the arts, modeling and make up, and i like to articulate my words to appear smart and witty to others. 😁
When your mercury retrograde is in Cancer
karissav93 what does that mean? Especially if it's in the 1st house?
God save your constant thinking capacity
Domicile Mercury retrograde in Gemini 🤦♂️
@@idunoh1902 mercury exalted in virgo retrograde 😭🤧😑😔
@@Pr.nce_youngg wondeful position if it is 6th house
I disagree with you when you say you would rather have mercury retrograde, I think there are other placements that promote careful thinking in a way that's much less "dwelling on the past" as you indicated. Saturn interacting with communication gives great results imo. I think mercury acts best when it's given freedom to look ahead.
I always double or triple check my door lock before going out.Confused as hell. Over thinking, always judging myself....you r on point. My mercury is in pisces 1st house. 😐
If I don't check twice , I go half way n come back to check again If I have locked it or else I call n ask someone else to check if the door is locked or not ... Such a pissing life, most of the time I, I think I will die of overthinking
This was so on point with my communicational behaviour that it's almost scary 😅
Key point at 1.24.... you're so wise.
HEY MAN! I have Mercury retrograde in my birth chart. Mercury in Gemini 29 degrees. I've been getting really Paranoid about this "Anertic Stage" Can You PLEASE respond with any information on this or even a video? THANKS!
HURAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
Your are GENIUOS!!!! I have the Retro Mercury in Taurus. I am really thinking in 3 parallels while talking! And with my Moon in Cancer i am easily insulted and keep FOR AGES boiling about my pains and failures! Once talking to a psychologist, she told, that she cannot understand what is the cause, but seems i keep on and on going around one and the same thing. She thought something is wrong with me.
Although they are not fast thinkers, here's a positive thing about this, people like that can become very tricky, cunning and are capable of finding cracks where other people just passes them, I am impressed how many shortcuts, cracks and exploits I can find in video-games, rules, places, contracts and so on, people sometimes ask me how did I discover this or who show you this. Finding easter-eggs is like a second nature, and when I think a choice I think in how many permutations it has, there fore I am able to find innovative ways to do common tasks.
I have mercury retrograde in my birth chart in my 3rd house which made me overthink before speak...Sometime I felt confused when someone talked to me..i overanalyzing the answer .
That's why I'm afraid to text message, presentation, speech.very true analysis mercury retrograde in 5th house Virgo
Thanks for this video! I have mercury retrograde in the 3rd house in Sagittarius.. how does the retrograde function in that areas?
Kapiel, thank you!
what are the effects of combust mercury?
Ty for this. I have Mercury's in retrograde gemini stellium. I also have Uranus Pluto and Neptune in retro at birth. I did further research and I believe during conception Jupiter and Venus were in retro. I wonder if that has any effect. As Leo in my 5th. Thankful Saturn was no were in site. As Saturn in 4th and Mars, Jupiter and Chiron in Aries. The soul places no more than we can bare🙏
I have retrograded planets in my birth chart and when the planets are retrograded I just feel like things are slower.. not crazy but people who are prolly not conscious mess up more ? Idk whatever ..
I have this in my birth chart 😑in my 2nd house..I've failed in maths all my life
in which sign
I'm a Leo ascendant with a Leo sun. I LOVE talking but I feel like nothing like my signs most of the time. The funny thing is, my mercury placement is actually good. I have Mercury and Rahu conjunct together in the 2nd house in the sign of Virgo. These placements for perfect for very vocal people.
But as I have a retrograde Mercury and cancer moon and venus in 12th house is perhaps the reason why I'm so socially awkward and an introvert. I prepare any talk even when I'm playing games.
However, when I'm home and among my closest people, I do act like the lion. And I always wanted to be a public speaker.
I am also leo ascendant My Rahu and Mercury(R) together. Venus and mars in 12th cancer. I just want to explore everything I want thing’s quickly. Lol
(2) I had a lot of difficluties with it at school, althought I am still reflecting about something, my IQ is very high - and I have at least an impression that I see very deep to others mind and I feel many things, which are coming, I am just not able to use it:(....
Mercury retrograde in Aries 7th house, my mind moves way too fast 😅🏎💨
SAME HERE!
you are absolutely right. it s happening to me, every word of your is right. Please tell me any remedies.. my mercury is on virgo in 12th house and it s in 10degree with Sun(18 degree), venus (14 degree), saturn (29.55 degree).
Sir plz make a video on ketu retrograde.
My son's mercury is retrograde AND combust in the 5th house. Venus combust, jupiter combust with the sun, all in the 5th house.
Mars combust in the 11th house.
Looking at these details of his chart makes me really understand his struggles. Yikes!
My 6 year old has retrograde mercury with sun conjunct in 10th house. His teacher told me he rechecks things again n again, something about confidence
That explains why i favor written communication than sudden phone calls or one-on-one communication. I have to think about the answer before replying. So when someone calls i would be looking at my cell asking all kinds of questions...why are they calling now, what do they want to talk about? etc. Then I'm also those people who think of a clever answer that I would have said hours after a conversation/argument is over🤣🤣Mercury retrograde in 7th house
like your videos...shows the practical side of things
By any chance does retrograde mercury lead to not getting dreams while sleeping?
In 5th house the kids part made me cry ❤
I have retrograde Mercury conjunct with Sun Saturn Rahu in Taurus sign. And my retrograde Mercury holds lowest degree in the conjunction. And I was born on Wednesday.
Quite correct I have mercury retrogate on 4th house libra lagna
I Have Mercury retrograde in my natal chart and it's in a stellium with Mars Uranus Neptune and the Sun so I'm wondering does that one retrograde planet affect the rest of the planets that are in the stellium with it ? I'm just assuming it does but I thought you might have something to add to that and it's in the 11th house Capricorn
I have been trying to figure out what a mercury retrograde is... This only affects Scorpio and Sag...right? Mine is in Libra. I assume I dont have to deal with this...
Me too, I switch off the lights and electricity before leave the house but still will check before go whether everything locked properly. Also when do the spell check, because sometimes we can't trust our own eyes! Also with children's always alert and advise them to study and do revision earlier before the exam date as do wan them to do the same mistake I did, study last minutes and "black out"🥴🙃 you know its take time to compose to normal! I got retrograde Jupiter, mercury and Neptune/ketu🤦more to self enlightment it seems!
May not affect some people when mercury goes retrograde, but its been interesting for me. I had no idea it was happening, but when I looked back at things in my life during the last year, its apparent I have been significantly affected by retrograde mercury, specifically when it went conjunct with sun, not only to the day but almost perfectly to the hour! possibly just a coincidence. I guess it has something to do with mercury being the strongest and most important planet in my BC.
KRS, that ws superb ma'an. I don't hv Mercury retro, however my spouse chart has mercury retro in h7 n I m indeed thinking rethinking cautious as to hw I will raise a given issue with my spouse. This actually drains my energy. N this wen I don't hv me retro. N yes, my spouse also measures his words b4 talking to me. It's not good to hv me retro in marital relationships. One shd be natural n simple in conversations, specifically to spouse.
I follow instructions carefully
my brother has retro mercury in gemini with sun in 11th...his sppech is out of mind...
What if you have Mars sun and mercury in 5th house. I'm not always calm😌
So true i have retrograde mercury i reherse each and every word for my presentation.
I have mercury in retrograde in conjunction with the sun, in my 1st house. However I read this basically means someone with learning difficulties and slow. This really upsets me as I always thought of myself as being very smart and been told by people.
Sir my daughter is autistic her mercury is retrograde and combust 16° conjunction with saturn 19° sun 15° and rahu 13° in 10th house for capricorn ascendant and virgo sign.
