Mercury Retrograde is a three-week astrological cycle in which the energies associated with Mercury, communication and the mind, tend to create an atmosphere that can feel rather slow, heavy and mostly negative. Here's 7 Signs that Mercury Retrograde has been messing with you.

Life may seem to flow slowly and be more inexplicably confusing. It may also seem as if everything seems like more effort than usual.

During this Retrograde time, you might assume that your heightened feelings are originating from you however, though your emotions and thoughts are your own, please understand that the planets energies may be affecting and amplifying certain hidden patterns within you.
If the last few weeks have felt 'somehow', here are 7 possible ways that Mercury Retrograde has been messing with you.

1. You have found yourself in a deep dark funk that you simply cannot shift. You're questioning everything and just generally, not at peace.

2. You are having a major existential crisis right now. You are questioning your entire existence and nothing is as it should be.

3. Anything that could go wrong has or is going wrong. You spilt a drink on your favourite blouse, a passing car splashed water all over your outfit, you randomly tripped and fell over whilst walking. Pretty much all activities you could do normally are messing with you and it's frustrating.

4. Do you feel like you have no control over your emotions? Have you turned into the most sensitive version of yourself? Retrograde tends to make us super-sensitive and it can bring all your emotions to the surface.

5. You are spiralling in a bout of self-doubt. You cannot get your thoughts in order and nothing you do seems good enough. Retrograde messes with our self-esteem and makes us question EVERYTHING.

6. DO NOT MAKE ANY BIG DECISIONS RIGHT NOW. This will be the exact time that you want to quit everything, move, break-up, get married, make monumentally large decisions that you will live to regret it.

7. If you need to let it all out, now is the perfect time to do so. Right now, your emotions are raw and it's best to succumb to them instead of running away.

Why Do We Scratch Our Heads When We're Thinking?

Some people believe that certain automatic gestures — like scratching our heads when we're thinking — are natural motions that were passed down to us from our caveman predecessors. JOSE LUIS PELAEZ INC./GETTY IMAGES If you've ever had the distinct pleasure of sourcing stock photos for any reason, you've likely come across a whole lot of laughing women eating salads alone . But you've also probably stumbled upon a truckload of people scratching their heads to symbolize confusion, deep thought and/or perhaps a bad case of seborrheic dermatitis — dandruff. Scalp dryness aside, how exactly did the head scratch come to symbolize intellectual processes? Some people believe that certain automatic gestures are simply natural, expressive motions our caveman predecessors passed down to us. "One popular explanation for any hand-to-head movements is that they're frustrated aggression — a reversion to the natural movements of our rock-throwing ancestors," wrote Sa...

How Do You Evict Your Freeloading Friend?

Guest Trisha just told you she's not leaving your house. How can you get her OUT? It was supposed to be just a few weeks. That was the deal. Your college friend Trisha was blindsided by her husband filing for divorce and needed a place to crash until she could find her own apartment. She's always been a bit of a mess, but you couldn't turn your back on a friend in need, right? Now "a few weeks" has turned into eight months. In the beginning, she at least pretended to browse Craigslist for cheap sublets and part-time work, but now she doesn't do much of anything, unless binge-watching Netflix can be considered a full-time job. You finally work up the nerve to ask Trisha to leave. Your place is just too small and your boyfriend thinks she's a leech, eating all your food and never offering a dime for groceries, let alone rent. You break the news gently to Trisha; she has to be out by the end of the month. And then she breaks the news to you: Nope, she...

Was Gandhi truly a Racist or Pedophile?

Who is Gandhi? "Mahatma Gandhi, full name "Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi" was an Indian lawyer, politician, social activist, and writer who became the leader of the nationalist movement against the British rule of India" We need to be careful about what we think we know of an icon. History is an evidence-based pursuit, not an opinion-founded political football. To get closer to the truth, we need to look at evidence. Was Gandhi racist ? By contemporary standards, the answer is a resounding "yes" - and quite probably a "no" too. Like all people, Gandhi was not a god. He was just a man and as human as any of us. But he did say things that were bigoted against other races. Timelines South Africa In his younger days, Gandhi spent 21 years practicing as a lawyer in South Africa. Many of his statements then, although probably normal at the time, seem extremely bigoted and shocking now. The Natal Indian Congress was formed on August 22, 1894 wit...
