Retrograde ☿ Mercury in 2018 year
Retrograde, or retreat. It is indicated by the "R" icon. The word "retrograde" means something moving backwards. The planet does not move back, but the fact is that if you look from the Earth, it seems that the planet slows down its movement and is about to retreat. It's like moving two parallel trains. If one goes with greater speed, then it seems that the second one is going back.
Different phases of the movement of the planet in astrology are usually denoted by letters: D - for direct (direct) movement, R- for retrograde, SD - when the planet after stopping starts direct movement and SR - when the planet after stopping, will begin retrograde motion. Retrograde are all the planets, with the exception of the Sun and the Moon.
If the planet is retrograde, that is, it moves in an unusual way, then its impact will be less obvious, more hidden and introvert. In some cases, this is a real blessing, and sometimes it can slow the process of ripening the event. City Kishinev.

If you do not want to become a victim of fraud, avoid buying new or second-hand cars and other vehicles, household appliances, computers, as well as other electrical and mechanical devices for home and office during this period. Important events and meetings are better to postpone or cancel. A list of errors in the exchange of information can continue indefinitely. You should avoid signing contracts, refrain from orders by mail or by phone, do not respond to ads and do not give them, do not schedule, do not give orders and do not take orders. Books, keys, tickets and documents are lost or are not in their place. People tend to change their decisions more often. Although the likelihood of making mistakes or loss of things increases, at the same time, the chance of detecting errors and recovering losses increases.

This time is suitable for gathering information, improving the organization and carrying out preparatory work for projects and activities.
