In fact, this year, it’s best to think of Election Day as Election Month. We’re already seeing major issues with misaddressed or delayed absentee ballots, long waits for early voting, and glitches with online voter registration…I’m just saying, don’t expect those headlines to end anytime soon. Because Mercury completes its orbit around the Sun in only 88 days, the Swift Planet becomes. That means we can expect the Retrograde chaos to continue for weeks after Election Day. Mercury and Venus appear to go retrograde when they lap us.
The planet of communication, thinking, and timing is squeezing in one final backspin before the end of the year, and this time around, it also throws our deepest fears, feelings, and even our future into the mix. I’m sorry to say, but Mercury won’t leave this area of the sky until November 23, after the post-Retrograde shadow is over. As if the Autumn 2020 Astrology wasn’t chaotic enough, retrograde Mercury of Autumn 2020 begins on October 13th. So on Election Day, we’ll be very much in the thick of it.ĭo You Want to Be, Like, Really Good at Voting? The meme-worthy astrological phenomenon will happen three times in 2020, so as Mercury is retrograde for the first time this year (February 17 - March 10). This time around, Mercury entered its “pre-shadow” phase back on September 23, and it won’t leave its “post-shadow” phase until November 19. When Mercury is in its “pre-shadow” period, it’s revealing what is going to be compromised during the Retrograde, and when it’s in its “post-shadow” phase, it’s reconciling any Retrograde-riddled calamities. See, on either side of Mercury Retrograde are “ shadow phases,” which correspond with the specific area of the sky where Mercury slides forward, backward, and then forward again. For some, Mercury’s about-face is a good sign, because the Retrograde will end quite a few hours before the polls close-and no can deny that Mercury Retrograde (which, ICYMI, causes technology breakdowns, interpersonal misunderstandings, and transportation delays) ending is a step in the right direction! After all, after three long weeks of mishaps, meltdowns, and miscommunications, a little less chaos would certainly be welcome.īut other astrologers don’t see it that way. Interestingly, the significance of Mercury moving direct on Election Day varies between different schools of thought.
