1. No worries - just don't sign anything during those 3 weeks
Any contracts or deeds signed under Mercury Retrograde will be fraught with delays, misunderstandings, and unexpected expenses.
Anyone born under that will notice many of the same problems - though they do tend to abate as you get older (mostly because you become adept at working around them). |

3. Well, elections held under Mercury Ret tend to have more snags
On the other hand, any plots or ploys by miscreants like Trump and his Rethugs are much more likely to backfire.
All the more so because Pluto and Saturn are now conjunct (together in the heavens). This is most inauspicious to anyone in power - particularly those who abuse their power. |

5. Good to know ahead of time.
I’m keeping close to home for Samhain but plan to help an elderly uncle (and a trump humper...sigh) into assisted living on November 2nd. This could be interesting.

6. Mercury Sun transit mean anything? Monday. This is a rare event. I would think it might be
auspicious in the realms Mercury rules. But then Merc is still retrograde, so could magnify the problems.

7. I saw that - interesting -
does it seem to move backwards (in retrograde) during the event - I don't know much about astrology, but if there's a sky event able to be seen at this spot on the globe, you can bet it will be so cloudy, one won't be able to see a thing...

8. It will appear as a black dot sailing past the face of the sun. People with the right gear will be
able to see it. Sounds momentary, but still, the rarity.

9. Still will be retrograde, but that might mean an insightful ,and deep (Scorpio) reflection on our
past, not tangled communication, but rather a learning from the past, sharing new ideas, coming together.
Here’s a run-down from England using Brexit as a reference point. I really just found vague stuff or pure science other than this article: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-7666935/OSCAR-CAINER-reveals-Mercury-Monday-mean-you.html |
