While the second Mercury Retrograde will begin on August 4, it is natural to wonder if the ‘Retroshade’ of Mercury is real. During this time, the retrograde is believed to cast a shadow, allowing its effects to linger.

This makes sense when you think about it. Mercury has a powerful influence. Mercury’s backspin will take time to reverse, and it will not happen in one or two days.

In fact, Mercury will take two weeks to complete its task. This means you should continue to be in retrograde mode for two weeks before August 4 and two weeks after August 28 (until September 11). In other words, take Mercury Retrograde precautions every day. It will help you deal with Mercury Retrograde and keep the universe from kicking you in the buttocks.

Remember that the upcoming Mercury Retrograde takes place in detail-oriented Virgo and fiery Leo. This will influence the precautions you must take. Virgo is fussy and rigid, but extremely organized. When dealing with the current shadow period, keep these characteristics in mind.

Do you require assistance? Here are seven scenarios that Retroshade could throw at you.
Everything Needs to Be Double-Checked
Continue to double-check everything, as you have done in true retrograde fashion. If necessary, double-check your work. Allow yourself extra time to ensure that assignments and tasks are completed the way you want or are supposed to be. Text messages and e-mails are included. Whatever you do, don’t be so quick to declare victory.

Details Become More Important

Remember that Virgo is all about the finer points. During retroshade, it’s simple to lose track of minor details. Are you the polar opposite of detail-oriented? Set reminders to go over the details. Do it in a quiet place, away from distractions. It may appear to be extra work, but it sure beats having to redo everything.

Plans Need to Be Confirmed
There is a risk of confusion and craziness whenever a task involves other people. During Mercury Retrograde, the odds increase even more. To be safe, clarify plans before proceeding. Check that everyone is on the same page and ask clarifying questions as needed.

Things Will Break
Things are more likely to break as a result of Mercury Retrograde in Leo and Virgo. This will undoubtedly persist during the shadow period. If you rely on equipment or electronics to complete tasks, be prepared. Check that everything is charged and backed up. Keep “Plan B” in the back of your mind, if applicable.

Co-Workers Will Be Cranky

Virgo is a picky sign. Because the retrograde will be under this sign, expect coworkers to be grumpy. Working on a large project or task can be challenging. Do your best, take a deep breath, and try to be as respectful as possible. We’re all just trying to make it through.

Clarifications Will Save the Day
On that note, don’t be afraid to seek clarification. For example, if your boss gives you instructions for a project, repeat them to ensure that you understand them correctly. This will ensure that you stay on track. Better yet, they will appreciate your efforts to cover all of your bases.

  1. Maybe its a good time to turn off all electronic devices, Take a well needed Digital Detox and start to empty the mind and reflect with gratitude what all you do have. This is the greatest possession in control one can muster to simply empty out. Try meditation and quiet the mind. Be quite the feature to feel to know other information can present itself in such a practice. Even too, a 3 day fast, drinking only clear liquids and getting more rest can revitalize the inner spirit. Such is refreshing and surprise ones self nothing has changed when you return. Yet you will start to see much is deliberate to confuse the senses. This too can strengthen your personal filtering of what seems more tangible as to what is not. See then movement rapidly increases with new feet on track.
