Mercury is currently in retrograde, with 2 days left. Hang in there!
Solar activity was very low and the visible disk remained spotless. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available coronagraph imagery.
The solar kp index is quiet, with no changes to retrograde effects. The solar wind speed is currently above average, making retrograde effects moderately increased.
There is currently only one planet in retrograde.
Basically don’t do anything that requires communicating, sealing the deal, travel or otherwise during this cycle. I’m sure that’s going to be acceptable when you call into work. Or, you could take the more rational approach and recognize that if you do notice a lot of things really wonking up, maybe those things could stand being corrected inasmuch as you can from your end of things.
If Mercury retrogrades in a water sign, use your intuition. Research can be driven by the way questions are asked, so if your research says to go a certain way, but your intuition tells you to reject the research, follow your gut. Intellect can only get us so far; often our emotional intelligence is more accurate. If Mercury retrogrades in a water sign, it’s an instant signal to start listening to that small voice within.
The Solar System at a Glance
Solar wind parameters, as measured by the DSCOVR spacecraft, were slightly above background conditions. Total magnetic field strength ranged from 4-9 nT. The Bz component reached -6 nT at 06/0912 UTC. Solar wind speeds were between 308-394 km/s, with the highest speeds observed near the midpoint of the reporting period. Phi angle was negative.
There is a 30% chance of solar activity, with a 5% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.
