Is a retrograde expected in June 2021?
Venus, the goddess of love and relationships, will enter the sign of Cancer in June 2021, during the Mercury Retrograde.

What signs will the retrograde of 2021 affect?
In 2021, Mercury will be retrograde three times. All three, Aquarius, Gemini, and Libra, will fall under the air element.
- In Aquarius, the first retrograde of 2021 lasted from January 30 to February 20.
- Mercury appeared to sail backwards for the second time in 2021 from May 29 to June 22 in Gemini.
- The third and last retrograde of 2021 takes place in Libra from September 27 to October 18.
The three retrogrades of 2021 convey a story when combined. The planet Venus, which rules love and money, activated the retrogrades in January/February and May/June (meaning Venus was in the same degree as Mercury when the retrograde began). Venus rules the sign of Libra, which Venus retrogrades in September and October. Mars, another action planet in Libra, will energize the retrograde.
As a result, this most recent retrograde period could raise issues related to money and love. You might be questioning yourself: Do I want to rekindle old relationships or strengthen my bond with the person I’m with? Am I content with my job and earnings?
These choices could be tinged with concern because all three of the astrological signs for the year are air signs. Always keep in mind that unwinding will help you get through this period.

Who does the 2021 Mercury retrograde affect?
Although Mercury retrograde is undoubtedly not a stroll in the park, it isn’t necessarily the cosmic disaster that has been made up to be. Because Mercury is fundamentally a trickster, all it wants to do is stir up a little difficulty and mischief. Because we are all subject to Mercury’s whims when he is retrograde, you may notice that something seems a little odd during this annoying transit. However, not everyone will experience the affects of this fall’s 2021 Mercury Retrograde as strongly. In fact, if you belong to one of the zodiac signs that will be least impacted by the fall 2021 Mercury retrogradeTaurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquariusyou may come out of it relatively undamaged.
Mercury will station retrograde at 25 degrees Libra on September 27 and direct at 10 degrees Libra on October 18 this fall.

What are some things to avoid in 2021 retrograde?
Ellen Bowles, an astrologer and co-author of Astrology SOS, claims that “we can have technical or mechanical troubles, and our wires can seem crossed in all our channels of communication.” “Planetary retrogrades are occasions for everyone to stop and think. We are being advised to slow down and double-check the details when Mercury is retrograde.” The urge to meticulously examine every last aspect extends beyond the three to four weeks of the retrograde period itself. The same guidelines for what not to do during Mercury retrograde also apply during this time, which lasts for a week or two before and after the actual retrograde. This period is known as Mercury’s shadow phase or “retroshade.”
