Mercury in retrograde may only come thrice a year, but it sure makes its presence known. But, what is it in the first place? Mercury in retrograde in its essence is an optical illusion. The planet Mercury (in the eyes of Astrologers) looks to be moving backwards. That’s because the orbit of the Earth seems to be ahead of Mercury during certain phases of the year. This is what makes it look like Mercury is being left behind or going backwards. You can look to Newtons Laws of Motion for a better idea of why it is that way.

So, how does this affect me and the people around me? Well, Astrologers believe that Mercury going backwards means that there will be confusion, delay, and frustration in the realm of communication. Mercury being the planet of communication, which is inspired by the Greek God, Hermes, who is the messenger in Olympus.
