As a person who has studied Astrology for over ten years, it is actually a real thing. Saying that though I really don't like when readers incorporate it in readings.

OMG I was born during a retrograde period.... I wonder how many people on here are? we are all doomed.

I, for one, never said MR was bad or negative or all doom and gloom.  It’s just a cycle.  It’s an over publicized cycle, but a cycle just the same. As MR is occurring, there are plenty of other transits occurring as well, that are personal to your natal chart and most likely have more of an effect on your day to day living.  MR is actually a great time to reflect on the past and the lessons you may have learned.  I do believe it can mess with emotion based discussions, technology, and traveling plans.  It doesn’t mean things won’t work out, there just might be a slight hitch.

Anyhow, I think astrology is just another tool in the toolbox we can use to try and make sense of our lives, our interactions with others, and the world we live in.  I don’t believe that any one astrologer can decipher your life path or say that something is a certainty, because even if a certain transit is occurring that says you’re prone to feeling a certain way or doing a certain thing, based on past experiences and free will, you may very well make a concentrated effort to act contrary to the current energies, to your benefit or your detriment. 

BG brought up MR, which means it must mean something to her as far as significance goes.  If something isn’t significant to you, or on your mind, you’re probably not going to post about it.  Since it is on her mind it will affect her differently when making this decision on whether or not to reach out to someone for closure as compared to Hornet or Boston, who think it’s mumbo jumbo.

I don’t think MR needs to be based on superstition, but more as something to consider.  Just my two cents for what it’s worth.  Peace out. ✌🏻

i do believe it's real; i observed things are more bumpy during this period of time
BUT i wont take it into any kind of consideration; life goes on with or without MR
