Mercury Retrograde Periods in 2010
Although not quite as popular as Sun sign astrology, “Mercury Retrograde” has certainly become a buzzword–or buzz phrase–these days.
What is Mercury Retrograde? Three, and sometimes four, times a year, the planet Mercury appears to be moving backwards in the sky for a period of approximately 3 weeks. “Appears” is the key word here, because, technically speaking, no planet actually moves backwards in their orbits around the Sun. In fact, they don’t even slow down. Retrograde-station-direct cycles are essentially illusions that result from our point of view from Earth, simply because the Earth is also orbiting the Sun at a different speed than the other planets. Mercury turns retrograde more frequently than any other planet. It can never be more than 28 degrees from the Sun, and whenever it reaches its furthest distance from the Sun, it changes direction.
As the planet of communication, Mercury retrograde tends to breed a certain level of confusion. Mercury rules our “lower” mind—how we perceive and interpret information that we receive from our environment, and how we relay that information to others. Mercury has rulership over such things as speaking, negotiating, buying and selling, listening, formal contracts, documents, travel, the mail and shipping, and so forth. All of these areas of life are affected when Mercury is functioning in a sluggish state. Decision-making is challenged during Mercury retrograde. Needless to say, it is not advised to sign contracts, engage in important decision-making, or launch a new business. Delays and challenges are more probable with Mercury retrograde. This period is best used for re-organizing and reflecting.
During these periods, it’s best to check and double-check your work, emails, and paperwork. Watch what you say, because it may not come out, or be received, the way you intended. Try to be understanding if you receive remarks that don’t go over well. Double-check that the person who uttered those words really meant it the way you thought they did! Asking “are you sure you meant to say that?” might help. Get in touch with yourself during this period–it’s an excellent cycle for discovering new ways of looking at life and at yourself. It’s also an ideal cycle in which to discover new ways of communicating your ideas and thoughts.

Venus Retrograde in 2010
What is Venus Retrograde? Occasionally, Venus appears to be moving backwards in the sky. “Appears” is the key word here, because, technically speaking, no planet actually moves backwards in their orbits around the Sun. In fact, they don’t even slow down. Retrograde-station-direct cycles are essentially illusions that result from our point of view from Earth, simply because the Earth is also orbiting the Sun at a different speed than the other planets. Venus is Retrograde approximately 40-43 days every 18 months.
As the planet of love and values, Venus retrograde periods are times when we re-assess what–and who–we value. It is a period that most astrologers consider inopportune for getting married or starting a new relationship. Financial undertakings are not advised during this period as well. There may be delays or confusion in relationships and financial affairs. Read more about Venus Retrograde cycles.

What is Mars Retrograde? Occasionally, Mars appears to be moving backwards in the sky. “Appears” is the key word here, because, technically speaking, no planet actually moves backwards in their orbits around the Sun. In fact, they don’t even slow down. Retrograde-station-direct cycles are essentially illusions that result from our point of view from Earth, simply because the Earth is also orbiting the Sun at a different speed than the other planets. Mars is Retrograde approximately 58-81 days every 2+ years.
When Mars is in its retrograde cycle, we are forced to re-assess our current projects, our approach to getting what we want, and our desire nature. Rather than directly asserting our desires, we tend towards introspection. While Mars in direct motion is direct, straightforward, assertive, and aggressive, with Mars in retrograde motion, Mars energy is essentially turned inward–it’s internalized, intensified, personalized, and perhaps pressurized. We can be hesitant about taking action, second-guessing our instincts or our natural impulses rather than acting upon them. The way we react to situations under normal conditions doesn’t necessarily work for us now, or we don’t exactly trust it… Read more about Mars Retrograde cycles

13 Jan Saturn Stationary Retrograde 08:56 am EST Tran-Tran 04 Libra 39’Rx
Saturn Stationary Retrograde
17 Jan Jupiter conjunct Pisces 09:11 pm EST Tran-Tran 00 Pisces 00′
The coming year is likely to see people going out on a hunch and staking their gains on intuitive calls that may easily founder or, if on the mark, race to a new level. It’s all about listening to that still, small voice – and about quieting the noise enough to hear it. If you’re a hard-nosed realist, this could drive you up the wall – but it’s in the air, so why not share?
31 Jan Saturn square Pluto 05:29 pm EST Tran-Tran 04 Libra 21’Rx
This period of a year or so marks a somewhat troubled time for society at large, during which political and economic struggles arise and engage in conflicts that don’t actually seem to get anywhere but take up a lot of news time. Unless you’re part of the news, chances are this doesn’t hurt you directly, but it does sow a certain unease all around that makes people more uncertain than usual about committing to long-range agreements. When the wind is shifting, everyone waits until it’s changed before settling down to business. With that in mind, you may find you can make more headway in smaller affairs and short-term commitments, personal or financial, pending further advisories.
05 Feb Jupiter quincunx Saturn 03:12 am EST Tran-Tran 04 Pisces 12′
06 Feb Jupiter sextile Pluto 12:31 pm EST Tran-Tran 04 Pisces 31′
This is an excellent time for whipping up great faith in whatever new trip you are onto, regardless of its apparent merits. Faith is the operant word here, for if you instill enough of it yourself and inspire enough of it in others, you can succeed where you probably wouldn’t or shouldn’t otherwise. Basically, your personal or financial success (it can be either) can hang on your ability to generate a deep feeling of trust and the inevitability of what you believe to be the right course. That’s what people are looking for right now. If you can make your belief theirs, then you can take a ride together and you won’t have to sell anymore. And when you pull together with the abiding knowledge of success, it’s a lot more likely to happen.
06 Apr Pluto Stationary Retrograde 05:58 pm EDT Tran-Tran 05 Capricorn 25’Rx
Pluto Stationary Retrograde
07 Apr Saturn conjunct Virgo 02:55 pm EDT Tran-Tran 00Libra00’Rx
The devil is about to be in the details for the next couple of years, and those who haven’t been picking up every stitch will find themselves tailored for a tumble. That especially goes for control freaks who aren’t, in fact, in control and will be done in by their own rules. Those who have been attending their chores without fanfare, however, will find their ships come in.
26 Apr Saturn opposition Uranus 07:25 pm EDT Tran-Tran 28 Virgo 46’Rx
This rare (once in 45 years) aspect provides a background of a year or so when new advances in theoretical science occur which take a longtime proving, thanks to an often-intransigent scientific establishment. Relativity theory and chaos theory are two good examples; both took years to become thoroughly accepted and a part of the general consciousness. If you happen to know what they are, it probably profits you little, except you can tell your children you were there first, when they finally get hip to it. Nevertheless, it’s worth looking around for, as the foundations for another wave of the future are being laid at this very time, no small thing.
02 May Saturn quincunx Neptune 06:19 pm EDT Tran-Tran 28 Virgo 29’Rx
23 May Jupiter opposition Saturn 01:39 am EDT Tran-Tran 27 Pisces 53′
This generational aspect, which happens only once every 20 years, marks a major social and economic struggle between the new and the old, the traditional and the radical, in which both sides spar and harden against each other. It is very much a time to choose one and leave the other behind in relation to the larger part — all play in the big picture. Prejudices increase, along with paranoia and general fear of the unknown, leading many to cling to false idols and defend or advance them dangerously. Where you can find movement that leads both to what is right and also profitable, there you will become elevated above the fray.
27 May Uranus conjunct Aries 09:49 pm EDT Tran-Tran 00 Aries 00′
Discoveries are made by forcing the issue increasingly over the next seven years. Breaks and discontinuities seem to come from out of the blue, even though they have been gestating for some time. Belief systems around you change radically at sudden shear points, revealing the obvious only after the fact, leaving the most aggressive in charge.

06 Jun Jupiter conjunct Aries 02:25 am EDT Tran-Tran 00 Aries 00′
The coming year witnesses a shoot-now-ask-questions-later approach to new developments all around, in which the tendency is to jump onto new bandwagons before you check to see if they have wheels. There’s a feeling of racing ahead into the future, but to where, really? Catch the tide, but keep your eyes open, ask questions.
08 Jun Jupiter conjunct Uranus 07:23 am EDT Tran-Tran 00 Aries 18′
There is a 14-year rhythm of discovery which is now at its peak for the world in general, a time when big new ideas blossom forth into existence and are there for the picking. It’s generally a time when risk-taking pays off if you really believe in what you’re into, personally or financially. It is a real test of talents, however, because everybody’s in the same boat, rising on the same tide. It’s what you see in it and how you use it right now that counts. It’s a good time for starting new projects, bursting into new personal affairs, exploding onto a scene you never knew existed a year ago. Only remember that time passes quickly, so lay down roots fast, make a strong foundation with dispatch.

21 Jul Saturn conjunct Libra 11:10 am EDT Tran-Tran 00Libra00′
The next couple of years will likely see a renewal of blind justice with her sword. Those who have spent their time handing out self-made dictums of right and wrong will find themselves hoisted on their own petards, while the meek inherit their earth. If you’ve been minding your own business, tending to your tasks, you’re safe and in line for a promotion.
23 Jul Jupiter Stationary Retrograde 07:35 am EDT Tran-Tran 03Aries24’Rx
Jupiter Stationary Retrograde
24 Jul Jupiter square Pluto 08:02 pm EDT Tran-Tran 03 Aries 24’Rx
In the enthusiasm for a new cause or idea you can sometimes back it up with a little too much or ill-placed force and break the very thing that you want to sustain. Or, you can overestimate the effectiveness and reach of your powers and wind up going “a bridge too far.” There is a general climate right now for making that judgment error, and once you have made it, there usually is no going back. You may equally find yourself the recipient of this kind of pressure, and should you see it happening, don’t fight it and have it go to its logical hurtful conclusion, but don’t give in, either. Just make yourself scarce until the situation blows over. In the survival game, the fittest often know to flee.
