Seems like we just got out of a retrograde, and now we are in another one for the next three weeks, although we technically aren't in the safe zone until valentine's day. Just a gentle reminder that when mercury is in retrograde, it is not a good time to make big purchases, such as houses, cars, sell phones, and computers. One reason I do follow astrology is because I like to know if it is a good or bad time to make purchases. If the planets are aligned in a way that make spending my money sketchy, then I want to know about it, because hey, it can't hurt.
