Mercury retrograde causes communication issues and personal disruptions

The current Mercury retrograde, active until July 23, is causing widespread communication issues and personal disruptions. Astrologer Alice Bell reports personal mishaps like mistaken romantic advances and accidental over-ordering, attributing the chaos to Mercury's retrograde in Cancer and other planetary retrogrades. This period is marked by a rare astrological configuration, the Barbault Basket, signaling collective resets and societal changes, with a challenging retroshade period to follow.
