Today is the start of the Mercury retrograde. As such, we can expect significant problems with travel, technology and communication. It might be difficult to get much accomplished during the first half of the day; unexpected issues could arise, and there might be a noticeable decrease in our focus. We should aim to be as flexible as possible to deal with any last-minute hiccups. Toward the evening, the day should become a bit more manageable, as long as we pay attention to the details and stick to the basics.
