Mercury retrograde is a great time to revisit any past interests, revise work you’ve done up until this point, or reconnect with old friends. However, one thing you won’t want to do is immediately jump back into a relationship with an ex. Oftentimes, the same problems that existed before in the relationship will resurface once the retrograde is over.
You also should not beat yourself up over not having your future perfectly planned out. The retrograde often causes feelings of self doubt to arise, so I wouldn’t freak out if you’re feeling a bit confused or frustrated. Finally, you won’t want to put your life on hold or say no to opportunities just because it’s Mercury retrograde. Any huge events like moving, getting married, or accepting a job offer are fine to do, just expect possible delays to occur.
