Mercury retrograde is part of astrology that causes the physical plane to be confused sometimes. This is a messenger planet and works with communication and logic. There are things in the retrograde that go a little crazy.
How Does This Change Relationships?
Mercury is a messenger in the sky, and it works around the sun. The sun will give you energy and will work fast to give you messages. When you interact with people, you will need to work fast and this can even be by electronics.
When it is retrograde, which happens a few times each year, people will say things that they don’t mean to say, and they will not know how to respond to people that say things. This can lead to insults and bad reactions.
The Mercury retrograde affects relationships because they rule the past and this can cause you to be interested in an old crush or someone else. This can be confusing and if you talk about things with them that have hurt you or upset you, you can have a good relationship. But if you choose to not talk to them, this can lead you to have misunderstandings.
Interactions can be harder to work through at this time and you will act impulsively. This means you need to slow down and be careful what you say.
