Best Healing Crystals for Mercury Retrograde

The planet Mercury rules the mind, intellect, communication and mental clarity. During a Mercury Retrograde period, simple acts of communication or common sense can become distorted and altered from your original intent. Instead of starting new projects, it’s time to re-look at what’s currently going on in your life.

Mercury Retrograde affects us in many unwanted ways, often causing stress and conflict. We find it hard to be understood and can’t understand others’ points of view. Our communication skills don’t shine as usual, and everyone seems to be out to get us. Our work is delayed, our relationships get turbulent and we just can’t seem to stay focused.  We may even hear from some toxic people from our past.
