Mercury enters Cancer – what does that mean?
After an all too brief sojourn in its own sign Mercury moves on, into the watery sign of Cancer. In this sign, Mercury is a bit hampered.

We have now entered the annual period of retrogradation:
Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto have all turned retrograde, while Neptune will follow in June, and last, but not least, Uranus will be going retrograde in August. While the slow-moving planets do this every year, and Mercury does it three times a year, Venus and Mars do so much less frequently. But this year, even they are going retrograde. Venus went retro last week (May 13) and Mars will go retro in September.
Taurus is the archetypal foodie. But above all, they love their sweets! This scrumptious pie is a variation of the equally scrumptious Banoffee pie, just marginally lighter.
Fiery Mars is moving into watery Pisces. Expect a lot of steam, foam, and frothing at the mouth. Pisces is not a very comfortable sign for Mars. It dissipates his energy. Pisces is so boundless and often in two minds about things that Mars here cannot be effective in pursuing anything in his usual direct, go-getting manner.
Mercury rules Gemini and is more than happy to return to his own domain. Here, Mercury feels light and breezy. He jokes and makes light of things that other signs may find distressing. Joking is a form of self-protection. Mercury’s approach to resilience.
