Mercury Retrogrades are famous for glitches, miscommunication, traffic mishaps.

They can also be powerful times for reflecting, reworking, and renewing. Retrogrades are times when you move against the grain.

If you feel personally victimized by Mercury Retrograde, you aren't alone. When you learn astrology, these times of year can suddenly become the moments when you have your best ideas, understand your life more deeply, and write the best emails of your life.

They happen three or four times a year, and they last about three weeks: a fascinating time when the trickster planet of ideas and messages seems to move backwards along the ecliptic. Each year, Mercury retrogrades take place in a specific element. In 2026, they are happening in water signs.

From February 26 - March 20, Mercury is Retrograde in Pisces.
From June 29 - July 23, Mercury is Retrograde in Cancer.
From October 24 - November 13, Mercury is Retrograde in Scorpio.

In this workshop, you will master mercury retrogrades by learning:
- The mythology and meaning of Mercury in astrology
- Interpreting the Mercury placement in your birth chart
- The astronomy of why planets look like they are moving backwards
- How to use Mercury Retrograde to your magical advantage

Come prepared with a notebook, pen, and your birth information (date, time, location) so we can put your chart up on the big screen as an example.
