The Mercury retrograde starts today. Over the course of the next three weeks, we can expect issues to arise concerning communication, commerce and tech. For those of us with plans to travel for the holiday season, we should take as many precautions as possible to deal with last-minute changes. However, there is a silver lining for today. Since the current cosmic weather emphasises a need for camaraderie and connection, this is an ideal time to reconnect with people from the past or family and friends we’ve been missing.
