2024/12/19 This week, Mercury enters its final retrograde phase of this year. Before it does, it takes a swipe at Mars. In some way, your pride could be at stake and you might feel a need to reassess an arrangement involving a certain person or possibly an organization. If you sense a collaboration or shared venture isnt progressing at a pace you wish it was, resist ringing any changes while Mercury is in a weakened state. Allow a few weeks to pass before ringing any changes.
