Mercury Retrograde: Navigating the Final Stretch of Retrograde Mayhem

Astrology Unbound with Evan Nathaniel Grim

Mercury retrograde in Aries marks the end of a marathon of retrogrades that began in November 2024, offering a final opportunity to rebalance our communication style and reconsider our independence before moving forward.
• Mercury retrograde in Aries (March 14-April 7) helps us find balance between independence and thoughtful communication
• This transit completes almost four months of continuous personal planet retrogrades (Mercury, Venus, Mars)
• Mercury in Aries naturally encourages sharp, clever thinking but the retrograde asks us to slow down
• Mercury will retrograde back into Pisces on March 29th, creating a more ungrounded energy
• Family dynamics and home environments strongly influence this retrograde period
• Resolving conflicts in domestic relationships creates cascading positive effects in other areas
• Traditional Mercury retrograde advice applies: avoid major purchases, contracts, and extensive travel
• Each sign experiences unique effects based on house placement in their chart
• After mid-April when Venus retrograde ends, forward momentum returns with fewer obstacles
