Mercury is Retrograde again!

Yep. The planet of communication and commerce is moving backasswards again, and I'm already feeling it!

Lost my car keys this morning. Took me almost 45 minutes to find them!

Mercury retrograde also hits the stock market, too, but the hard part is trying to figure out exactly how!

Some market astrologers call it a time for a "counter-trend" which can sometimes mean a big correction. But more than once I've gotten fooled by that and ended up on the wrong side of the trade.

I guess whether you decide to stay in the market with Mercury retrograde depends a lot on how you handle risk. It's just a real good time to watch your money closely. Be careful how much you spend and where you put things. Don't leave your checkbook with your car keys and lose them both!

The bad part is that Mercury retrogrde lasts 3 weeks. It won't be over this time until May 11th.

Anybody ready for a 3-week nap?
