It’s that time of the year. Even if you are not an ardent follower of astrology, the words “retrograde Mercury” will always make you feel a little superstitious. This is because this transit never fails to sow confusion. When the Mercury is retrograde, it’s often easy to blame all of your stress for its duration of three weeks.
But before you start to groan again in frustration over retrograde Mercury, let me remind you that this transit is nowhere near as bad as you might think. In fact, Mercury retrograde summer 2020 will be the best for these signs of the zodiac, Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, and for them, the experience will not dull their radiance.
The retrograde mercury of this summer begins on June 18 and ends on July 12, taking place in the cardinal water sign of Cancer. This sign is governed by the Moon, the “planet” of emotion and care, and it is a sign that communicates intuitively and empathically.
While this retrograde Mercury will encourage you to connect with your inner truth and open your heart to others, the overwhelming nature of Cancer’s sensitivity can seem downright exhausting.
Cancer is a very nostalgic and sentimental sign, and since retrograde Mercury tends to flirt with the past, this transit can let you romanticize everything that has happened and disappeared. While this is a closing opportunity, it can also make you want to dive back into a past that should stay where it is.
However, even if you are forced to let your heart take the wheel while your mind takes place in the back, this transit will reveal the truth of where your heart is. Even if it will probably feel disturbing at first, nothing is more liberating than the truth.
