Wednesday, 16 July 2025 Written by Jamie Partridge Views: 14172

The second Mercury retrograde phase of 2025 lasts from July 18 to August 11 in the Sign of Leo.

Mercury retrograde often causes problems with thinking and communication, and negatively impacts relationships and travel. The astrology of this July 2025 Mercury retrograde phase is more harmonious and less problematic than usual. It promotes love, cooperation, intuition and creative inspiration.

Mercury Retrograde Meaning

Mercury retrograde is generally challenging, affecting your thinking and communication. The most common effects include confusion, anxiety, disagreement, technology breakdowns, bad news, travel delays and lost items.

Business negotiations may be in flux. Some crucial details may not be available yet, and others may be unreliable or inaccurate.

However, you may experience déjà vu, reminisce about happy times, unexpectedly meet up with an old friend or lover, or recover suppressed memories or skills from your childhood or past lives.

The most critical point in the Mercury retrograde cycle is when Mercury stations retrograde. The few days around the exact retrograde and direct stations are the riskiest for decision-making, negotiations, communication, and transport.
