So, we are coming close to the next period of retrograde Mercury, which begins on September 10 at 06:38 Moscow time and ends on October 2, 2022 at 12:07pm.
If you are still worried about this period, it's in vain: the retrograde of a fast planet is very common, so it won't bring any very negative events for the most part. These are usually minor troubles that can be avoided if you include mindfulness and mindfulness.

You can benefit from this astroevent: look back, repeat the materials you have studied, rewrite and rewrite documents, and renew old connections. It is not surprising that during the retro periods of Mercury, people from the past come back to us or we look back.
Mercury turns retrograde every three months. The accumulated knowledge and mental experience that we have gained during these three months should be streamlined, processed and repeated. Our brain is designed in such a way that all the neural connections that make up our memory must be strengthened. And they are strengthened by banal repetition.
Therefore, the retrograde period is the best way to strengthen these ties: you repeat the old and forget the unnecessary. That is why loading the brain with completely new information would not be entirely right now. It's better to go back to what you've already learned, or work on the bugs and fix things.
Mercury Retrograde in September 2022: Influence
In September and early October 2022, Mercury will go retrograde according to Libra and Virgo. The turn will take place at 9 degrees Libra, then Mercury will return to Virgo on September 23 and turn straight at 25 degrees.
If your natal chart contains planets in this segment of the zodiac — from 25 degrees Virgo to 9 degrees Libra, retrograde Mercury will now touch them and bring you minor events.
Another interesting thing is that when Mercury first passes through the degree at which it turns around, its so-called “shadow period” or “Mercury loop” begins.
This loop started about two weeks before the turn, and then the loop will end when Mercury reaches the degree where it turned retrograde.
This time, the Mercury loop will start on August 21 and end on October 17, 2022. When Mercury enters the “loop”, “retrograde” things can already begin: the return of old situations and people, mistakes and inaccuracies, the need to revise some documents, and so on.
