Not just Mercury: how many planetary retrograde periods await us in 2025 27 December 2024

Of course, Mercury retrograde will also be a factor. It will be in this position from March 15 to April 7, then from July 18 to August 11, and from November 9 to November 29.

“Mercury is responsible for information, for communication, communication, movement. In all these areas, there may be a slowdown. Negotiations, meetings, travel - all of these can be difficult. Thought processes can also slow down. However, Mercury retrograde periods are a great time to reassess your social circle: break off communication with toxic people or, on the contrary, meet with people you like who you haven't seen for a long time. You can also hold meetings that are not the most pleasant, but which you have been putting off for a long time - during this period, there is a chance of resolving old issues,” the astrologer said.

According to her, during Mercury retrograde, it is good to pay attention to unfinished business, unresolved and shelved problems, repeat the training material you have completed, and watch old movies.

Venus will be retrograde from March 2 to April 13.

“Venus retrograde always affects our feelings first and foremost. We may face a cooling in our relationships, difficulties in understanding our loved ones. We may meet with our exes and even resume relationships. Relationships that have had a deep crack before will simply fall apart, but it is likely that the breakup will be calm and by mutual consent,” the astrologer said.

In addition, Venus is responsible for finances, and a retrograde planet entails crises, losses, exchange rate and stock market fluctuations. That's why the astrologer recommends protecting yourself with a financial cushion and postponing large expenses during this period.

Do not make expensive purchases during this period: land, real estate, jewelry, do not start repairs, do not take out loans and postpone investments. In all these aspects, negative aspects may appear: inadequate quality, overpriced or other unexpected troubles

Venus retrograde is also not the best time to undergo cosmetic procedures.

If we look at March, the retrogrades of Venus and Mercury coincide, and there is a large cluster of planets on top of that, plus a period of eclipses. It will be a difficult period. There may be financial problems and difficulties in reaching agreements, and all this will rise to a high international level. There is also the possibility of a significant rise in the dollar. In other words, March and early April are a very difficult period that everyone should treat with caution, postponing all important matters to a more favorable period
