Mercury
had many names and attributes in Greek and Roman astrology. He was called
the Magician, Trickster, Magi, Fool, Coyote, Psychopomp, Guide to the
Underworld and so much more!
When Mercury goes retrograde three times a year, undoubtedly you're familiar with the warnings. Don't sign a contract, start something new, send something important through the mail, take a trip, etc.
Instead, do anything that starts with "re": repair, revise, redo, reinvent, restructure, renovate, etc.
Here are the Mercury retrogrades for 2009.

Here are some books I recommend during Mercury Retrogrades. They are mercurial in nature.
The Magus, by John Fowles
I don't want to spoil the story but this is a very Mercurial book ...
about twins and other Gemini things
Hermes Trismegistus
fusion of Greek, Roman, Egyptian
and esoteric gods ... one of many wonderful books by Manly Hall
More BOOKS OF INTEREST during the Retrograde
Hymns of
Orpheus
Mystery
of the Seven Vowels
Toning
"Whenever we are in a state of personal transition, we can expect Hermes to appear with messages from the unconscious. Retrogrades are just such times. The process of insemination and active waiting, putting an idea or plan of action on the "back burner" for incubation and maturation, is an attribute of all retrogrades."
