Mercury
Mercury is the Ruling Planet of the third house of Gemini and the sixth house of Virgo. It is named after the Roman god Mercury, the god of commerce, travel and thievery. The planet probably received this name because it moves so quickly across the sky.
Mercury is associated with travel, intellect, logic and communication skills. Mercury represents quick trips, short classes, siblings, and transportation.

Mercury Retrograde
By Mark Dodich, AstroMark.us
Mercury turned retrograde on Aug. 20th and goes on through Sept. 12th. This communications breakdown cycle goes backwards from 20-5 degrees of detail-oriented Virgo. If you have natal planets at those degrees, you are even more highly affected by this re-visioning cycle. For everyone, it is time to pull back and tend to all the little things that you have been putting off. (Like installing or learning new software, getting those gutters cleaned before fall, or other equally exciting projects).
At the same time, relationship planets Venus and Mars are traveling close together for the next six weeks, currently in Libra and then in Scorpio. This is an alignment that normally only lasts a few days, so their extended dance together is meaningful. Your love life and ambition , and values surrounding those important aspects of life, is going to change before the not so distant Thanksgiving Day holiday in late November. It may be that those desires which held your attention are going away to make room for something new in the area of love and money. For others, those aspects of your life will simply go through adjustments. Either way, something or someone is going to be released.
