5.0 out of 5 stars What's Up with the Messenger of the Gods?, April 27, 2002

This review is from: The Mercury Retrograde Book (Paperback)

Therese Francis has written a really nifty little book about the plagues and promises of Mercury when he goes backward over his own tracks. Remember the story of Mercury and the cattle of Apollo? It's a funny story and it describes the true nature of this Rascal in the Skies. It is very difficult to talk about Mercury since this planet rules your ability to talk in the first place and yet the yearly activities of Mercury are extremely important to a smooth running routine in life. Francis manages to demystify the subject and to provide helpful, comprehensive tactics to get the best out of Mercury's mercurial behavior! The book is easy to read, attractively printed and a great edition to a growing library of books on your favorite subject, astrology. I would like to buy a couple hundred of these books and send them to all my clients. That's how helpful it is to understand what's going on when Mercury goes retrograde.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly informative reading for students of astrology, February 23, 2001

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Mercury Retrograde Book (Paperback)

The Mercury Retrograde Book is a compendium of observations and advice on how to not only survive, but thrive during the astrological condition known as the Mercury Retrograde three to four times a year. When a planet is retrograde, its energy turns inward and becomes reflective, with its areas of influence (and in the case of Mercury these have to do with communication and transportation, memory and thinking) subject to dysfunction or malfunction. The Mercury Retrograde Book is very welcome and highly informative reading for students of astrology and metaphysics.
