Horoscope: This is how retrograde Mercury works until February 21st. on your zodiac sign

As if the world weren't upside down: From January 30th, the communication planet Mercury will also be in retrograde, in the air sign Aquarius. Until February 21st, it seems to us (people on earth) that Mercury is moving backwards – and according to astrologers this can sometimes have a noticeable effect on our lives (more information on how such a retrograde Mercury comes about and what that means for us in general, you can find out in our article).

Especially in social interaction, with Mercury retrograde it can lead to disturbances, misunderstandings and "challenges" more easily than usual. To counteract this, we can specifically strive for patience, attention and forbearance in dealing with others during this time. Which, of course, is easier said than done – because according to astrologers, retrograde Mercury can also affect our minds and make it difficult for us to have a clear, reasonable view of the world.

But enough of the generalities: What the retrograde Mercury means for your zodiac sign and how you can best deal with it, you can find out in our gallery.
