Navigating Mercury Retrograde: Expert Tips for A Positive Outlook

As Mercury enters retrograde, some people believe it causes chaos and bad luck, while others see it as a harmless diversion. Mental health experts warn that the anticipation of Mercury retrograde can lead to anxiety, depression, and a self-fulfilling prophecy of expecting bad things to happen. Some psychologists attribute the belief in Mercury retrograde to a human tendency to seek external causes for emotional changes and a desire to shift blame away from oneself. While some enjoy astrology as a fun pastime, others caution against letting it dictate major life decisions.
