Retrograde Mercury is the most commonly known astrological signature for Murphy's Law ("If something can go wrong, it will"), and is one of the first features intermediate astrology students learn about. Say it to a seasoned astrologer and you'll likely get an amused smile and some delightful stories about how things can get quite unexpectedly unhinged.

Computers crash, software develops unexpected glitches, traffic jams ensue, telephone service snarls up, letters get lost on the mail, machinery breaks down, new projects fail. Ah, yes, the trickster Mercury is up to his old pranks again. In fact, at least three times a year for about three weeks each time Mercury has his way with us.

That last paragraph pretty much describes stuff here 24/7....

So what can you do during this "dangerous" time?

  • Research a new project thoroughly
  • Catch up on paperwork
  • Do the follow-ups on a project already started
  • Hold an information-sharing meeting
  • Enjoy someone's wacky sense of humour

The Astrologers say that the 2000 elections in the US were during a really nasty period of Mercury in Retrograde.

i don't know, I can fuck up pretty much anytime, so it will be Biz as usual here in the Batcave.
