Mercury Retrograde — The Trickster's Review
Communications break down, contracts go awry, travel disruptions, technology failures. Media retractions and corrections. Old information resurfaces.
Review, revise, reconnect. Don't sign major contracts or launch new ventures. Back up data. Revisit old projects.
