Lucky us: Mercury retrograde begins in Virgo at 9:04 AM! Between now and September 22, expect miscommunications and delays. Virgo is an orderly, analytical Earth sign, but not much will make sense in the coming weeks. On a non-Mercury retrograde note, our energy levels will be high this morning due to the Moon meeting Mars at 3:51 AM, and later this evening (at 12:20 AM) some surprises will arrive, thanks to the Moon connecting with wild Uranus in Aries. All times EST.
