Mercury is entering retrograde this weekend, and I’m already shaking like a little bitch

Mercury is set to enter retrograde on Sunday, and to be honest, I’m already shaking like a little bitch.

This retrograde starts out in the earth sign of Taurus, April 9 – April 20, which means things will begin feeling heavy and slow. Try not to get frustrated here. Expect things to take time, and always leave yourself with more than you need.

During this time, you’ll be encouraged to sit back and allow things to happen to you, but this also means you’ll have less control over those particular aspects. This retrograde in Taurus will bring a lot of negative comparison into your life — you’ll find yourself consistently feeling less than. These comparisons will invade in your home life, but more noticeably in your work and professional life.

Be prepared with small reminders of why you’re uniquely good at what to do. This retrograde will seem like it exists to mess with your sense of self at times.

On April 20, Mercury retrograde in Aries will begin, and last through May 3, dragging out fire energies, and giving some of your power back to you. However, this may cause you to do things without thinking. Be careful to avoid acting on emotion at this time.

Retrogrades come and go, but this one will be a tough one. Spend some tonight and tomorrow preparing. Or, you know, just go out and get super drunk. Good luck.
