Mercury retrograde tips and tricks to avoid meeting disasters

Retrograde Mercury is back, my babies. ‘This is the most misused time of the year, when the planet of communication slows its proverbial rotation and destroys our travel plans and the best efforts for clear communication.

Retrograde Mercury is a bit wrong – the planet seems to move back from our advantage here on Earth. Indeed, Mercury slows down three to four times a year, interrupting and annoying the spheres that naturally regulates – expression, recognition, coins, technology and travel.

The planet with faster movement in our solar system, Mercury has been named for the emissary of the gods, a psychopomy, whose verse reached drunken heights by Ambrosia, platoons associated with Mount Olympus’ platoon in the punishment and darkness of the underground.

In addition to being the Lord of Messages, Mercury is also the protective saint of thieves and deceivers, and the appros of this, when the planet slows down, likes to play tricks and steal our sense of stability, feeding chaos like Charlie Sheen in 2K11.

Relationships are challenging at any time of the time, but the slowdown of Mercury makes even the simplest exchanges feel dangerous, which serves to explain why more than 1 in 3 people cease to meet together during the dangerous weeks that Mercury Backstrokes.

Anastasiya pochotna, of the Flirtini meeting app, tells the post, “about half of all couples have experienced communication fighting, or arguing and fighting during the retrograde of Mercury, while 25% of people are thrown and our partners.”

However, if you are a B-Bold Bh, a dead romantic, a true believer or a stars defier, here are some tips and tricks to use as many meetings as possible during the second retrograde of 2025, which goes from July 18 to August 11, Pochotna’s decency and other expert Anna Hintyak.

Give your partner the benefit of doubt

Pochotna tells the post, “the bad community is safe, so do not get anything in the heat of an argument with the value of the face. Even if they hit a nerve, just let it slip.”

Give everyone – including yourself – the grace of quick forgiveness during this retrograde.

Clarity is compassion

Easy is easy to react rather than responding when tempters blaze. The words are thrown, and Mercury is slowing down. Pochotna advises people to break before jumping, “Before jumping down your throat, ask what they really would say. There is every chance to be misunderstood, so try not to react too much.”

To clarify during the conversation, consider expressing your question how, “Let me see if I understand what you are saying. You are telling me X. Is it right?” Sounds much more constructive than “go f -k yourself”, right?

Practice active hearing

Pochotna tells the post, “When your partner speaks, give them your full attention. If you constantly interrupt or only half heard, you are looking for trouble.”

The vital advice to be a better listener during the Retrograde of Mercury and beyond involve maintaining eye contact, eliminating distractions and curiosity leadership.

Let your partner finish their opinion and ask questions instead of automatically offer an answer/protection. Examples include: “What is most worrying about you for this situation?”, “Can you tell me more about it?”, And maybe most importantly, “What do you need at the moment?”

Choose your words carefully

Pochotna recommends, “Don’t say what you are thinking and hope it is well received. It won’t be. Choose your words wisely and try to be empathetic … even if you are not really feeling it.”

Before you talk, wear the poet Mary Ann Pietzker, who means, “Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it good?” If the answer is not for one or everyone, consider swallowing, rather than bringing out your words.

Be careful about your body language

Pochotna claims, “non-verbal actions, such as facial expressions, speak a thousand words, so you best save your eye rolls when you are not in the eye.”

In addition to inhibiting eye rolls and other visible signs of anger, resist the stimulation to pass the wings across the chest, as it communicates resistance to opening.

If possible, take a walk with your partner when difficult conversations arise. Walking side by side Fosters Camaraderie, and the act of moving towards a common destination together can translate into a stronger sense to be in the same team.

Engage in pre-pillar conversations

Since sex is a form of communication, bedroom mistakes, mistakes and disappointments are a common symptom of mercury retrograde. Hintsyak explains to the post, “If you can’t communicate, your sex life will suffer. My advice? Take the time to chat through your desires, boundaries and expectations before busy. If you understand each other’s needs, you will enjoy a more satisfying sex, no matter what mercury is rotating.”

Give your chest a break before you speak

Pochotna tells the post, “if things get hot, step back. Arguing that it will take you anywhere, so set a time to talk after you both be quiet.”

While setting an argument can feel difficult, allowing colder heads and a strong modification of your conversation points is essential during this transit.

Taking time to introduce your thoughts in writing will ensure that you are calmly and completely expressed. I also highly recommend preparing for a healthy discourse with a fibrous snack and some deep breathing cycles.

Make a break/engage technical for digital detox

“It is much easier to get things far away from the text when we cannot see our partner’s reaction. If a discussion cannot wait, at least make it face to face,” Pochotna tells the post.

The benefits of face -to -face communication cannot be overestimated, especially during a retrograde cycle when misunderstandings are at a high time. Communication personally shows a potential partner or partner that you evaluate them and relationships.

Being physically present also allows you to read body language and properly evaluate emotional responses.

The silver lining of this rear spitmi

Hintsyak claims that conscience, rather than abstention, is the name of the game during Mercury’s retrograde.

She tells the post, “Instead of putting your meeting life during Mercury retrograde, you just need to be more aware, especially when it comes to sex. Take time to communicate, be honest, and address any issues as they arise. This will help you in the difficult time and hard practice, and is a great practice when it comes to normal.

Express, don’t press! Wishing all the clarity, union, compassion and glorious emergence of sexual healing this retrograde season.
