Mercury Retrograde
Yes, there is such thing as cosmic forces, or cosmic energies. The one that I think affects us the most is Mercury Retrograde.
As we all from the Mythology, Mercury is the god of communications. Well, when the planet Mercury seems to be going backwards in the heavens, we say that it is retrograde.
This means that the communications systems get screwed-up one time or another. But that's not all. Cars break, planes delay, appliances stop working; you miss important deadlines, you miss important contacts; you save your work only to realize that the system freezes and when it "defrosts" your document ahs been converted to God knows what and now, your book has 2MB of undecipherable words.
All these circumstances (and others) make you very "happy" indeed!
Mercury Retrograde happens 3x/year and usually lasts 3 weeks.
It is ending this weekend. At last!
