Uh oh, it's that time of year again. Even if you're not an ardent follower of astrology, the words "Mercury retrograde" will always make you feel a bit superstitious. That's because this transit never fails to kick up the confusion. When Mercury is retrograde, it's often easy to blame all your stress on during its three-week duration. But before you start groaning with frustration about Mercury retrograde again, let me remind you this transit is nowhere near as bad as you might think. In fact, Mercury retrograde summer 2020 will be the best for these zodiac signs — Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces — and for them, the experience won't dull their shine.

This summer's Mercury retrograde begins on June 18 and ends on July 12, taking place in cardinal water sign Cancer. This sign is ruled by the moon — planet of emotion and nurturing — and it's a sign that communicates intuitively and empathetically. While this Mercury retrograde will encourage you to connect with your internal truth and open your heart to others, the overwhelming nature of Cancer's sensitivity may feel downright exhausting. Cancer is a highly nostalgic and sentimental sign, and since Mercury retrograde tends to dredge up the past, this transit may leave you romanticizing everything that has come and gone. While this is an opportunity for closure, it may also leave you wanting to dip back into a past that should remain where it is.

However, even though you're bound to let your heart take over the wheel while your mind takes a backseat, this transit will reveal the truth of where your heart lies. Even though it will likely feel unsettling at first, nothing is more freeing than the truth.
