You know that thing that you had been meaning to do, well, this it's the perfect time to do it.

It's a time where you can improve yourself and your life. Forewarning though, people might be completely confused by you, you could find yourself running late, being accident prone, breaking things, forgetting things, getting your wires crossed and all in all just feel like nothing is going right (especially if you're always in a rush). 

Mercury Retrograde here is saying "slow down", think before you act, pay attention to yourself and what you are doing. It's that time when you send an inappropriate message to the wrong someone, technology will bite you in the ass - so re-think, re-look over, make sure you are sending to the right person before you press send. It can also mess up or delay your communication, I recall a time where the other person - total confusion received none of my messages.

 It's a good time to retake an exam or test and have a lot more success. It's a time to hone your skills, to re-learn or brush up on things. A time when your car breaks down, there could be accidents that prevent or delay your journeys, you could experience a hold up all around you, like red lights, no car park spaces, lines/cues in stores, ATM decides its out of cash, you miss your exits, you get given wrong directions, trains and public transports delays. 

Mercury Retrograde here is where there is a whole lot of waiting around and technical malfunctions. 

It's always good advice to leave early and set aside "delay" time as things tend to take a lot longer. My internet has a nasty habit of dropping out during a retrograde in the 3rd house.

An Ex alert! A great time to edit things, like projects that you have not got round to finishing. 

You may experience old issues coming up with children (if you have any) there could be a little confusion and kids acting out happen around this time.

It could be the perfect time to take back up an old hobby, to re-connect or spend some time doing something that you loved doing and haven't done in a while. 

If you are single you could think on the past; an old flame could re-enter your life (although maybe not permanently), it's not the best time to meet someone new but to reconnect and gain a new perspective on the old. Something proactive you could do is to change up your dating profile, get clear on what you want from a relationship. 

If in a relationship, expect dinner parties and date nights to be rescheduled, this can be that your favourite restaurants close down, or goes under renovation, there can be delays and cancellations when it comes to having a bit of fun during this time, people can bail on you or there could be mishaps that take place.

Things seem to not go to plan.

It's prime time to renegotiate old terms, conditions, promises and contracts. It's time you can experience a lot of needing/wanting to renew things. 

I most certainly wouldn't say this is the best time to sign or commit to anything new, in fact, if you are signing something you will want to re-read the fine print as you are likely to miss something. 

It can bring up old issues, conversations, arguments and conflicts with a partner. Saying all that though, this is a good time for you to re-commit to something and to re-work over something with a partner. 

Top advice is to be mindful of the words you use as they can have a nasty habit of coming back to bite you later. Everything you say almost has a more significant impact on those you say things to, so maybe bite your tongue or at the very least be clear about what you are saying.

At the opposite side of that, make sure you understand what people are saying and try not to come up with assumptions as you may be way off.

Whenever it comes to Mercury transiting through this house, you bet you start to doubt your long-term vision. It's not the time to change directions but to re-think your goals and ambitions. 

Of course, during this time your future vision may change, but I'd advise re-strategizing as you're given a new/old perspective. I know people who revert back to old belief systems during this time, it's as if you can become easily influenced in thinking a new way which can cause conflict later as you revert back. 

If it comes to higher education or studies that will further your dreams and ambitions then I'd say this is a perfect time to re-submit a work-paper, re-take an exam or test. Regarding higher education, if you submit something (new paper) electronically, it can get lost as there are bound to be glitches, best save yourself a hard copy. 

Now if you are flying or travelling anywhere do expect delays, hold-ups and mix-ups. You might even experience your luggage getting misplaced, hotels can lose your booking, but it is an excellent time to re-visit a place you have already been before. 

If you travel somewhere new, it might not be exactly what you thought it would be. 

You could experience returns on investments you had made prior, and you could also reconnect with an old group, friend or friendship circle. 

Usually, this is a time where the internet can go offline; you could have an issue with your internet/phone provider, technology breaks down, you could have misunderstandings with current groups and associates that you correspond with. 

If you're a social butterfly, you might feel compelled to hide away or withdraw from the scene, if you are a hermit you might be pushed out into it. Mercury is switching to the less dominant side of the brain as to provide you with a new perspective. 

It is a time where you could feel a little more anxious nervous, and any past resentments with friends could come up for discussion. The classic break up with your BFF although it may not be forever.

Anything you have been putting off concerning your friendship circles, social groups or hopes and wishes, could come up for reevaluation. If something has been bugging you with a friend, they may now pick up on this annoyance and cause a bit of conflict so that you can rectify the situation. You are seeing things differently during this time.
