Hello everyone. As a Virgo, the dreaded Mercury retrograde is right around the corner & although it affects everyone, it appears Virgos & Gemini seems to feel it the most. The last retrograde for me was miserable for me & it lasted 6 weeks as I appear to feel the effects before it goes into retrograde. During the last retrograde my boyfriend at the time ignored me for 6 weeks the day the retrograde started (oddly enough he's a Gemini), I caught pneumonia, I broke out in hives after taking my prescription for pneumonia & had to take a steroid that affected me very badly, I found out at the end of the retrograde that my boyfriend was cheating on me & I got into a lot of arguments with close friends of mine. I also had a bad time in school where everyone was willing to sabotage my chances of getting a job. & since I plan on working in transportation, that's something also affected by Mercury retrograde. The only good thing that happened during the retrograde was that I met my current boyfriend when he flew to New York on 12/18 & I met him for the first time on 12/21. So now that I got that story out of the way, I'm terrified of what this retrograde holds for me & I was wondering if anyone is also badly affected by it & may have an effective spell to protect against the negativity of Mercury Retrograde. I'm already starting to feel the retrograde effects as people close & dear to me have been very distant & I want to be able to stop that from happening or at least come out with minimal damage
