Pay extra close attention this week

By Cassandra Tyndall

It’s quite possible that things may generally go awry this week. Issues involving logistics, details and dates may seem skewed or misunderstood. The words you speak may not land the way you intend or, you could interpret a message the wrong way. Something you thought was done and dusted may require your attention again. While not terminal problems, they sure can be frustrating. They demand more of your time, energy and effort. 

That being said, the chance to do something twice can make it better than it was before. All of this cosmic mischief is brought to you by Mercury slowing right down and preparing to head in reverse this weekend. Armed with this knowledge, it might be wise to back up data, attend to the pesky details, paperwork or logistics you know you’ve been putting off and avoid making any major purchases until later in June.
When planets retrograde, they come closer to Earth, inviting us to pay attention. A little extra attention paid to life’s finer points this week could possibly save you some headaches down the track. As new information comes to hand, it may be wise to let the details marinate for a while and consider things from all perspectives.
