Overview
- Mercury stations direct in Pisces on March 20, closing the first 2026 retrograde that began on Feb. 26.
- Reporting links this Pisces transit to heightened miscommunication and disruptions across travel, technology, media, and commerce.
- The post-retrograde shadow, or retroshade, spans March 20 to April 9 and may feel more confusing and erratic than the retrograde itself.
- Guidance from astrologers emphasizes review and discernment: double-check itineraries and messages, back up data, and delay major commitments if possible.
- The next Mercury retrograde is slated to begin on June 29, 2026.
