Mercury retrograde in Pisces

In Pisces the retrograde blurs details and heightens intuition. Instructions are misread, dates are forgotten and communication relies on feeling rather than fact. It favors rest, creative reflection and double-checking anything that must be exact.

It begins and ends within Pisces season.

Also retrograde at the same time

  • Jupiter in Leo — Feb 23 to Mar 17, 1967 (22 days of overlap)
  • Uranus in Virgo — Feb 23 to Mar 17, 1967 (22 days of overlap)
  • Pluto in Virgo — Feb 23 to Mar 17, 1967 (22 days of overlap)
  • Neptune in Scorpio — Feb 24 to Mar 17, 1967 (21 days of overlap)
  • Mars in Scorpio — Mar 8 to Mar 17, 1967 (9 days of overlap)

Mercury retrograde in Scorpio

In Scorpio the retrograde goes digging. Secrets surface, shared finances need re-examining, and conversations turn intense. It suits research, therapy and honest reckonings, and it punishes suspicion that runs ahead of the facts.

It begins in Libra season and ends in Scorpio season.

Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Mercury retrogrades either side of 1967

Previous

1966 Ended November 26, 1966 after 20 days, moving back 16.13° through the zodiac.

Next

1968 Begins February 6, 1968 and runs 22 days.

Both dates are computed from the planet’s apparent motion, not taken from a table. A retrograde begins the moment its daily movement against the stars turns negative, and that moment is findable to the hour.
