Mercury is going retrograde in Taurus

If your thinking “Didn’t we just have a Mercury retrograde?!!!” you are right! The last one was over Jan 19th and 3 or 4 times a year the winged footed messenger likes to moon walk. This time we are going back through Taurus which is great! Taurus rules over finances and luxury and food and likes to know that there is a consistent abundance and stockpile of such. This is an excellent time to go over your finances or finish organizing your closet or clear out all those mostly used cosmetics. Do not start any projects right now! Wait until after the retrograde or start it before. Go back over and fine tune it and prepare it to launch but don’t start the project. And please fine tune! Fine tune away because Jupiter, the planet of abundance and expansion (he’s a big deal) moves into Taurus on May 17th two days later. Kapow! No better time to launch a new project! While you are fine tuning though remember to weave flexibility into those plans. Uranus, the troublemaking rebel keen on disaster if the plan is too rigid is still reeking havoc in Taurus. I know the Taureans and other fixed signs are going through it. Make a to do list and not a plan and use Mercury’s energy to prepare!
