The symbolism of Mercury Retrograde in Aquarius indicates a significant change of mind, which can influence the collective mindset of people around the world.

Information can change quickly, be fickle and highly debatable. Is the information real? People can have difficulty seeing the other side of an issue.

In entertainment, this would be a great time to watch vintage sci-fi films or read vintage sci-fi books. Ancient civiliazations with a futuristic, advanced technological society is of more interest and curiosity. Research into ancient origins of astrology can be fascinating.

We could see a lot of changing opinions and more questions about the objectives of media companies. Issues with social media are likely to be activated during this period. Trust issues are already seen to be increased since Mercury has been in Pisces during the previous couple of weeks. What is the truth?

Technological glitches are likely to increase of course. Deja vu is likely, sometimes you may feel like you’re living in the matrix. It won’t be surprising to see issues with computers and devices connected to the internet, wifi and cell towers. We could see social media sites have glitches, go offline or have trouble logging in during this period. We could see issues come up with tech companies in the news. We could also see more privacy issues come up. We may see another influx of account deletions on social media sites and channels on video sites. We could see a change of mind or different talks about how censorship and biases in the social tech sector affects collective consciousness and how to deal with it. We could also see changes in the tech business industry.

This is also not the time to sign contracts without thinking things through thoroughly and reading the fine print.

Socializing with friends could get a bit weird at this time as miscommunications are likely to be enhanced. Some people will choose to log off and disconnect from social media completely at this time, or choose to take a break and keep to themselves to avoid complicating their social life. It’s wise to not create controversy of opinion at this time as it could create wedges between yourself, friends and your social circle. We could also see people disconnecting from one another in person, and instead choosing to live in their own bubble. 

Those that are addicted to or obsessed with likes, stats and numbers relating to their social networking activity could have a change of perception about how important the numbers really are in the grand scheme of things.  

We could also see a focus on charitable organizations, humanitarian aid and Foundations. Misuse of finances could be an issue that comes to light and has people thinking twice about what organizations they support.

Uranus, the ruling planet of Aquarius, is in Taurus, indicating that we are likely to be rethinking our options in financial security. Talk about the issues in the stock market and changes in the economy are likely to get more attention. Finances, computers, technology and virtual cryptocurrencies like bitcoin could be in focus.

Mercury Retrograde in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus also has us questioning how advanced technology is used in relation to the physical world. Bio-technologies, genetics and information about health and the systems of the body are indicated now. Past discoveries in science, tech and biology looked at again could give us a different view of our future. Speech against or questions about the biological impacts of new 5G technology are also possible. Can our futuristic technology impact our health and our ecosystems, perhaps down to the level of our DNA? Information about artificial intelligence could be on topic. And with the Taurus connection, will we see earth changes like earthquakes or volcanoes get active or talked about again at now? Differences of opinion about environmental issues are also likely to be rethought. 

Since Saturn and Pluto are in Capricorn, this also ties together the concepts of a social credit system and Big Brother system where authorities are heavily interested in using technology as a control mechanism. Interestingly, with the Coronavirus we can already see how advanced technology is moving us into a sci-fi future with drones tracking people (likely with facial recognition connected to the Chinese social credit system) and exerting control by telling people to go home and put on their masks. 

With Mercury Retrograde in Aquarius and all else going on in astrology now, this coronavirus issue truly is impacting the collective consciousness of the world now. 

Once Mercury stations Direct in Aquarius on March 9, 2020 at 11:49 pm ET we should start to have a new perspective on reality and a different view of technology, financial security, health and our social lives. Read more about Mercury Direct in Aquarius here.
