What happens when Mercury is retrograde?
During Mercury retrograde, the control of the mind itself is lost. You might remain lost in your thoughts unconsciously. This might make one react unnecessarily, be harsh with others, or lead to misunderstandings in relationships. The most hazardous part of this is that often we don't even realise we are making mistakes, and the longer this phase lasts, the greater the damage is.
Mercury retrograde can also revive the memories of the past. The invoked memories may cause emotional stress. During such times, people tend to run after the past and forget about the present. Many ultimately end up losing the present while chasing illusions of the past. Life may become increasingly chaotic.
