Mercury has gone retrograde, which may influence many aspects of life, significantly altering the fate of some people, astrologer Kateryna Solovyova, exclusively for RBC-Ukraine, reports.
How to use energy of Mercury retrograde to your advantage
From November 26 to December 15, 2024, Mercury will be retrograde. Its shadow period has already begun, meaning many might already feel its effects on intellectual pursuits, communication, technology, travel, documentation, trade, and education.
"Some perceive this period as difficult or even fear it. But I believe that knowing all the nuances can help you use it to your advantage," Solovyova emphasized.
This period will be particularly significant for those with astrological elements between 6°–22° in the following signs:
- Gemini
- Virgo
- Pisces
- Sagittarius
- Leo
- Aries
- Aquarius
- Libra.
In addition, retrograde Mercury will positively influence those born on the following dates:
- November 26 – December 14
- January 24 – February 11
- February 23 – March 13
- March 25 – April 12
- May 25 – June 13
- July 27 – August 15
- August 28 – September 15

Solovyova advises postponing certain important activities during this period, such as:
- Launching new projects
- Holding important negotiations
- Signing new contracts
- Registering a marriage
- Purchasing expensive items
- Undertaking significant business trips
- Traveling in new vehicles to unfamiliar places
- Taking major exams
- Making large one-time payments
- Buying gadgets (cars, computers, phones)
- Undergoing major surgeries for the first time.
"If your work is related to information, texts, documentation, be sure to check everything very carefully, as various inaccuracies are possible due to absent-mindedness and inattention. I also want to draw your attention to the high probability of theft and fraud during this period, so please be vigilant, as careful and attentive as possible," the astrologer noted.
But don't be sad. The period of Mercury retrograde is great for other things. The astrologer advises to engage in:
- Reassessment, revision, and redoing of everything that was unsuccessfully done before
- Analysis and research
- Audits
- Putting things in order
- Restoring communication with old acquaintances
- Resuming long-forgotten projects
- Traveling to places you've already been
- Rest.
"At this time, you can not only lose things but also find something lost. You can also return debts or have debts returned to you. For those involved in trade, not only an increased number of goods returns is possible, but also the return of old clients and partners," the astrologer said.
According to the expert, this is a favorable time for those whose individual horoscope is Mercury retrograde. Therefore, even despite the high probability of changing the initial plans, during this period, you can do a lot of useful things. The main thing is not to rush, think everything through, and try to act wisely.
As reported earlier, the Tarot horoscope for November 26 promises a lucky ticket for four zodiac signs.
