yesterday my parents started fighting out of nothing and they broke up, and my stepfather ended up leaving with a suitcase, they do that 2 or 3 times a year
Spot on. Wifi has been acting up in multiple ways on different devices, totally out of the norm, old mental issues resurfacing, texting communication is pthhhh
im a virgo and can confirm that i feel so intense when a mercury retrograde appears, i don't have to read about it happening as i feel it. but what ive noticed all these years is the fact that it does seem to be horrible at first but you kind of know that its a blessing in disguise. i have a problem with the moon too lol
This LITERALLY explains my life. A couple weeks ago I get in a fight with my freind over text message, and my RUclips keeps freezing up on me. And then I ordered something Online that was supposed to come 2 weeks ago and it's STILL not here. 😐
OMG this is sooo true!! i started new classes at the start of Mercury Retrograde started and the classes all suck but just before it started everything was fine!!! this video explains why my life has been a mess the past few weeks!!
I wish u upload video more frequently Alyssa because you keep it so plain simple and cool where makes astrology seem cool not all scientific and boring like everyone else
I like your zodiac tee :) Very helpful video about mercury retrograde. It has much significance for me since mercury rules more houses in my chart. I believe about three houses and it effects two of my thick lines, IC and DC.Been a long time fan of your videos! You have really know how to make astrology more down to earth and your humour is freakin funny!
This is soooo fucking TRUE!! You should do a video series on the rest of the planets in retrograde and what happens. I was born while my Venus in Scorpio was in retrograde and I'm guessing this might be why I am extremely hesitant to have relationships possibly, I dunno. But yeah make more vids like this! Thanks, Alyssa (:
this made so much sense me and my best friend got in a huge fight me and boy boyfriend broke up and my birthday present got lost in the mail i still haven't gotten it and also i got grounded for coming home to late
I had an online assignment due by midnight last night and my internet just stopped working and I couldn't fix it, I ended up going to Starbucks to use their internet
oh my god this makes so much sense. i lost my necklace. my old friend from two years ago talked to me. my boyfriend broke up with me, my friends car broke down. my transcripts were lost. what are the actual odds... mercury is in retrograde
If you apply the principle of, what you think about expands, then you are bringing whatever the issue back into focus, by placing your attention on it.
So yeah... I sat down this morning to continue with my assignment for College and could not find for the life of me where I saved it on my computer... Then I watched this video and wow... Now I know why I had no idea where I saved it! (I did find it in the end but man it took me a long time!)
Weird, but look at the "orb" from the top-left of the screen at 4:22. Yes, it could be a piece of dust reflecting light, but look at that odd "s" maneuver it does, VERY fluid and exact. Then it "disappears" (it DOES stop appearing...) within your forehead. THEN at 4:25 another "orb" appears from the same general area as before, but this one is already in frame when it appears. It does a vertical "s" movement, AND if you watch repeatedly very closely, you will see when it goes to the left in has a subtle deceleration before "bouncing" to the right. People can come to their own conclusions, but I am convinced that these are not "dust particles". Interestingly, after the "dual-ity" of two orbs coming and going, your next words are "...so another thing that happens". And THEN you talk about "communication getting stagnant", which, the communication of this video got very stagnant when I paused to re-watch the orbs a jillion times.
I just watched this video on 4/13/17 and I saw orbs several times throughout the video 2x w/in the 1st 3 min, i also saw the one you are talking about, and several more after to the end....
I just don't believe this. Because if anything I've been doing better in school and in my personal life this year and nothing at all bad has happened to me.
I'm so happy you posted this! I was just asking myself to research the subect for further clarification and low and behold here is your vid! My bf and I broke up Sunday the 2nd of Feb. I think it was a day or two before Mercury RX. I don't know if Mercury is what F*^%$ it all up. Anyhow I think he is gone for good. I just hope all is for the best if that is the case. :(
I googled the time we became "official" it was during the last Merc RX. We met Oct.13 and became serious Oct.21 or so (yes, very quick). So that just makes me feel like I shouldn't get my hopes up. I tried to get him to give it another shot. He says "not at this time". Any how, I am moving on. I do wonder if there is something one can do to defy these planetary alignments. Or is it all just set in stone as lessons to guide us? Idk... Too many things were "off" in that relationship. I do love him very much but it was a one sided relationship. I want to be treated better. Him Gem/Can cusp, Leo asc, Leo moon, Taurus venus. Me Libra sun, Leo asc, Virgo moon, Scorp Venus. I think my Scorpio Venus and his Leo Moon on top of Merc RX is what made this relationship very difficult. Thank you for your reply and vids. I love your take on astrology. It's refreshing and very real to life.
alyssa, i've noticed everytime my mental state is fucked up!!! mercury is actually in retrograde... lol no seriously... everytime i feel it... 1/23/90 btw ;)
How weird! I never heard of this before. Then it was thinking... This does kinda effect me. I did order a phone case and it got lost in the mail. I'm pissed, but it's fine :) well thanks for the video!
Wow....last night for first time in MONTHS the internet went completely out and I couldn't finish my same repetitive argument with someone Also, our texts haven't been sending to each other which never happens. Also, the past almost week I feel like we have gone back to a few months ago and I'm hearing the same things I was told then...back to square 1. Crazy.
omg this is soo true! my phone suddenly stopped working,i accidentally deleted instagram lost tones of pictures..my friend booked wrong flight for holiday.. :( naomi cambell wished malaria a happy birthday on twitter i see the pattern
Lol both of my perents are Aquarius and me and my brother are Cancer and I believe in this cause my life has been so weird and going wrong in the last couple of weeks
I really enjoy watching your videos, (you're gorgeous btw:). I would love to see more videos based on Pisces, especially sense we are approaching pisces season. :D
Good video, thanks for describing the retrograde thing, I get it now! ( I am slow on the uptake) I was born with mercury in retro so does that make any difference to how I respond during the retrograde transit? Should I be more immune to the general funk ?
Mercury retrograde has been shitting on my life lately ughhhhhh. Alyssa I have a question! Are some people more prone to be astrologically affected than others?
Retrograde planets haven't stopped moving. You're right about the illusion but it's about the shape and speed of the orbit with respect to that of the earth's , not that the planet has stopped in its tracks! that would be crazy
Alyssa Sharpe I don't know of this is my Virgo and Gemini energies being inhibited by them, but I've always found Retrogrades the least credible part of astrology. Because it is purely visual, not physical. I see calculating asteroids, and Parallel/Contra-Parallel aspects, without this problem because they make sense physically.
R3GARnator Actually, when a planet is in retrograde, it is at the closet point in it's orbit to the earth. So, really, it should mean that the effects of that planet are the strongest at that moment. I think that what happens for many people is that the intensified energy exacerbates issue related to that planet. In mercury's case that can mean it shines a light on the cracks and makes you return with a bucket of plaster, else face a breakdown of some sort. e.g. if you're car's been needing attention anyway, it's more likely to finally breakdown during mercury retrograde. Alternatively, if you have a good "relationship" with the planet the retrograde period might actually be a time of great blessings. If you're a writer, for example, and Mercury is well placed in your horoscope, it's retrograde period might be your most fertile time for writing. I think Alyssa Sharpe has a really intuitive talent for astrology, but I've learned this about retrograde planets from Lada Duncheva.
balancebeautyblog Thanks for explaining that. You should see whackowitch AKA Penny astrology's videos if you haven't already, she has a superb grasp of how opposite signs interact in her descendant videos.
If my mercury is in Gemini, and Gemini is the sign which is strong in communications being it an air sign, and mercury is the planet of communication, will that hit me a little bit harder during mercury retrograde??
Hey alyssa.. love your videos. Btw how does mercury retrograde affect someone with a natal mercury retrograde?? Is it just the same for them or maybe the comolete opposite? Thanks :)
I am a virgo and since my ruling planet is mercury does that mean I am more effected by the retrograde or no? btw I love all your videos and think you are super amazing even though you hate on virgos but its understandable Lol
i luv your videos....your still hilarious and funnyyyyyy and pretty. bigup my friend. keep the gud stuff comin:) thank you for ur efforts putting our the vdo's and explanation.
I never really understood what it meant for a planet to be "retrograde," at least now I know about Mercury :D This both made me excited and freaked just a little 'cause it's strange to think that Astrology actually has power here on earth… haha. I've loved Astrology for so long but it's just a little difficult to fully believe in it for some reason >//
*Complete opposite! Sorry for the typo.. blaming mercury retrograde for that. Hehe.. i was born with mercury retrograde in virgo and i feel like it makes me a slow thinker and i never seem to successfully communicate my ideas the way they are in my head.. like i have this awesome ground-breaking idea and when i present it.. it sounds like the shittiest idea ever. Which sucks big time.... anyway just sharing.. thanks for the videos im so glad they're free! Lol.. have a nice mercury retrograde everyone ;)
A planet can't "stand still". It just looks like it does because of the different speeds between itself and the Earth.
I enjoy your content very much but I just couldn't let this escape...cheers
@@alyssacsharpe cool :3 long live your channel ^_^

Mercury Retrograde gave me SO many issues this time around. I almost lost a friend because of stupid misunderstandings. Yuck.
OMG this is sooo true!! i started new classes at the start of Mercury Retrograde started and the classes all suck but just before it started everything was fine!!! this video explains why my life has been a mess the past few weeks!!
it's happening right now and I'm rewatching this! hahaha
Thank you so much this explains everything that is going on in my life right now
I wish u upload video more frequently Alyssa because you keep it so plain simple and cool where makes astrology seem cool not all scientific and boring like everyone else
Can't thank you enough for clarifying this for me! What seemed extremely obscure for me seems so much clearer.
Alyssa, you're my new favorite astrologer. I love your no-holds-barred approach.
Everything you said in this has happened to me in the past 3 weeks... Thank you
This makes so much since my birthday month not the best been bad one thing after another
I like your zodiac tee :) Very helpful video about mercury retrograde. It has much significance for me since mercury rules more houses in my chart.

final exams during mercury retrograde... so excited...
that explains why the internet and cable wasn't working on friday
This is soooo fucking TRUE!!
You should do a video series on the rest of the planets in retrograde and what happens. I was born while my Venus in Scorpio was in retrograde and I'm guessing this might be why I am extremely hesitant to have relationships possibly, I dunno. But yeah make more vids like this! Thanks, Alyssa (:
At 4:07 when that noise happen i so thought my laptop was about to freeze or break hahahaha
My wifi went out right as you said technology would stop working.
This is such a great video it really helped me understand what's been going on lately and most importantly, to accept it and grow from it.
this made so much sense me and my best friend got in a huge fight me and boy boyfriend broke up and my birthday present got lost in the mail i still haven't gotten it and also i got grounded for coming home to late
Thanks for the wisdom, so true it is scary.
That's so weird... Literally only a few days ago I lost all the data on my phone just before we're about to go into Mercury Retrograde.
I had an online assignment due by midnight last night and my internet just stopped working and I couldn't fix it, I ended up going to Starbucks to use their internet
ive had two life chats that went on for hours with my best friend and my mom lol thats how mercury retrograde is affecting me
Finally someone breaks it down with real talk! thanks for this video!
oh my god this makes so much sense. i lost my necklace. my old friend from two years ago talked to me. my boyfriend broke up with me, my friends car broke down. my transcripts were lost. what are the actual odds... mercury is in retrograde
If you apply the principle of, what you think about expands, then you are bringing whatever the issue back into focus, by placing your attention on it.
this sounds like my whole life. how would i know if i have a retrograde planet in my birth chart?
is it weird that whenever I check the time it's always like 9:11 or 7:11 or 1:11 ect. ?
Talya Rose Mercado I just looked at the time and it's 3:11
Seeing 11 everywhere is a really good sign..
So yeah... I sat down this morning to continue with my assignment for College and could not find for the life of me where I saved it on my computer... Then I watched this video and wow... Now I know why I had no idea where I saved it! (I did find it in the end but man it took me a long time!)
i noticed you took down the bieber poster next to the beatles poster. thank you. lol
OMG! I always go back and think about going back to hairschool right before Mercury retrograde.... IT NEVER FAILS! So ironic.
Weird, but look at the "orb" from the top-left of the screen at 4:22. Yes, it could be a piece of dust reflecting light, but look at that odd "s" maneuver it does, VERY fluid and exact. Then it "disappears" (it DOES stop appearing...) within your forehead. THEN at 4:25 another "orb" appears from the same general area as before, but this one is already in frame when it appears.

And THEN you talk about "communication getting stagnant", which, the communication of this video got very stagnant when I paused to re-watch the orbs a jillion times.
Now I gotta go back further and rewatch because I completely forgot what you were talking about ;-P :)
OMG that's crazy I saw the orb
I just watched this video on 4/13/17 and I saw orbs several times throughout the video 2x w/in the 1st 3 min, i also saw the one you are talking about, and several more after to the end....
I just don't believe this. Because if anything I've been doing better in school and in my personal life this year and nothing at all bad has happened to me.

Your brows are on point.
The obstacle is an illusion!
alyssa, i've noticed everytime my mental state is fucked up!!! mercury is actually in retrograde... lol no seriously... everytime i feel it... 1/23/90 btw ;)
Wow you're amazing, this video was so helpful!
How weird! I never heard of this before. Then it was thinking... This does kinda effect me. I did order a phone case and it got lost in the mail. I'm pissed, but it's fine :) well thanks for the video!

Also, the past almost week I feel like we have gone back to a few months ago and I'm hearing the same things I was told then...back to square 1. Crazy.
I blame my overuse of the word "also" on Mercury Retrograde...lol
Can you tell I'm a cancer? haha--btw love your videos! :D
omg this is soo true! my phone suddenly stopped working,i accidentally deleted instagram lost tones of pictures..my friend booked wrong flight for holiday.. :( naomi cambell wished malaria a happy birthday on twitter i see the pattern
You should do a video of what each zodiac sign would most likely be in high school!
Lol both of my perents are Aquarius and me and my brother are Cancer and I believe in this cause my life has been so weird and going wrong in the last couple of weeks
My tv decided to die today. our cable and electricity is not acting right at all today.
How does mercury retrograde affect the emotions?
8:13 - 8:21 Is that an orb flying round on the left? or just a piece of dust?
I really enjoy watching your videos, (you're gorgeous btw:). I would love to see more
videos based on Pisces, especially sense we are approaching pisces season. :D
4:10, I made the same face and reached for my phone :P
p.s. thanks for the video.
I have that sweater !! I fucking love it .
Good video, thanks for describing the retrograde thing, I get it now! ( I am slow on the uptake)
I was born with mercury in retro so does that make any difference to how I respond during the retrograde transit? Should I be more immune to the general funk ?
yea my boyfriend broke up with me during a retrograde -.- my venus is in capricorn too though so maybe I'm just cursed
This was a quite nice positive spin on Mercury Retorgrade, thanks
Right after I watched this my computer screen broke...
Mercury retrograde has been shitting on my life lately ughhhhhh. Alyssa I have a question! Are some people more prone to be astrologically affected than others?
yo, this is pretty damn deep! I have so many things to think about now!!! lol
theres a crazy orb at 1:30
and 4:20
And how do you know when a retrograde is coming up?
March July Sept
Kendall Rae sent me here!!! I love this video and now I'm subscribing.

Wow I have retrograde in my chart 5 times and I use to think I was mentally slow. So damn, school may not be for me
How do u know when mercury retrograde is happening or gunna happen?
I've been so lucky for the past couple of weeks and overall I've been feeling really good. Mercury Retrograde can bite me!

When i know when the next retrograde is happening?
Can u do Neptune in cancer
If my mercury is in Gemini, and Gemini is the sign which is strong in communications being it an air sign, and mercury is the planet of communication, will that hit me a little bit harder during mercury retrograde??
the title spoke to me
I love your sweater!!! Where did you get it from?? Great video, by the way :)
Aww, thanks for replying! :)
Also, do you experience Mercury Retrograde every single time it happens throughout the year? Or only sometimes?
What were those flying circles? Scientific or paranormal?
When you make a video during Mercury retrograde, the phone rings.
Hey alyssa.. love your videos. Btw how does mercury retrograde affect someone with a natal mercury retrograde?? Is it just the same for them or maybe the comolete opposite? Thanks :)
i love your shirt by the way!
how do we know when this is gonna happen?
uploaded on my birthday lol really liked this video
It is currently Gemini Retrograde and guess what? I feel great. I am a Gemini.
it is currently libra
On the last day of Mercury retrograde do you usually have a very big breakdown??
Can I find out when the next one is or when past ones have been?
Great video! Where did you get that shirt ?
Very cool but if you have mercury retrograde in your natal chart, will it play out any differently?:)
Does mercury retrograde fair better for a gemini or Virgo, or is it worse?
Alyssa Sharpe Well, I just got a massive free upgrade to my computer's speed and processing today. Sympathy accepted anyway! :P
I am a virgo and since my ruling planet is mercury does that mean I am more effected by the retrograde or no? btw I love all your videos and think you are super amazing even though you hate on virgos but its understandable Lol
Hi Alyssa!! What happens if I´m gemini ascendant with Mercury retrograde?? Thanks. Kisses from Quito, Ecuador!!
I did not experience any of the symptoms..
What does that mean
From what I have heard it could be due to your birth chart. Certain signs are more sensitive to this, others less. But I am by no means an expert!
What if someone has Mercury Retrograde in their natal chart?
i luv your videos....your still hilarious and funnyyyyyy and pretty. bigup my friend.
keep the gud stuff comin:) thank you for ur efforts putting our the vdo's and explanation.
How can I know if in my chart Mercury is going forward or retrograde? if it doesn't say anything about it, then does it mean it goes forward?
oh thanks a lot!
I never really understood what it meant for a planet to be "retrograde," at least now I know about Mercury :D This both made me excited and freaked just a little 'cause it's strange to think that Astrology actually has power here on earth… haha. I've loved Astrology for so long but it's just a little difficult to fully believe in it for some reason >//
Does Mercury Retrograde happen to everyone every year? Like no matter what? Or is this just often & to a majority of people?
*Complete opposite! Sorry for the typo.. blaming mercury retrograde for that.
