​Retrogrades are a regular and, of course, perfectly natural occurrences. At almost all moments of the year, one or more planets are in retrograde. Mercury has been in the pop culture spotlight because of how strongly it impacts technology, communication, and travel. Of course, these things we always notice in our modern daily lives.Mercury Retrograde has zero negative impact on love spells, BUT since Mercury rules communication, technology, and travel, it may slow down communication between you and your desired lover. In other words, you may have to wait a couple of extra days to hear from the target of your love spells. Or, an email from your target will end up in your spam folder, and you won't realize it until a week later.
