OK. So I'm a sensible sort, not given to superstition, and I don't accept astrology etc. as anything but entertainment. I am a woman of Science.
Why then, when I know that a span of weeks known as "mercury retrograde" comes around (which it does a few times a year), I find that so much goes cafluey on me. Just one thing after the other in a way it doesn't seem to ordinarily. Things break down, communication breaks down, scheduling gets messy. S**t just keeps happening until it's passed. Why? Selective attenuation? Self-fulfilling prophecy?
Mercury retrograde isn't even really a thing. It just gives the appearance of going backward. Bogus.
Does anything like this happen to you?
Are there things, in spite of knowing better, you secretly believe in.
