Mercury Retrograde is back AGAIN And this year, it’s extra spooky because the astro event infamous for effing up all

things travel, tech and communication starts on ... Halloween. Keep the drama to a minimum by remembering that Retrogrades are all

about reviewing, remembering and reworking your relationships, projects and other recent changes – not starting anything new

(seriously, back away from the dating apps).

YOUR MONTH

So you were disappointed by your own season

(weren’t you supposed to be the centre of attention?).

But this month, fi ery Mars fl ies into your sign, adding

so much energy that you’re bordering on being

aggressively outgoing.
