Mercury is currently in retrograde, with 17 days left. Hang in there!
Solar activity was very low. The visible disk was spotless. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available satellite imagery.
The solar kp index is unsettled, with retrograde effects slightly enhanced. The solar wind speed is high, making retrograde effects significantly increased!
There is currently only one planet in retrograde.
Basically don’t do anything that requires communicating, sealing the deal, travel or otherwise during this cycle. I’m sure that’s going to be acceptable when you call into work. Or, you could take the more rational approach and recognize that if you do notice a lot of things really wonking up, maybe those things could stand being corrected inasmuch as you can from your end of things.
The Solar System at a Glance
Solar wind parameters were slightly enhanced this period. Solar wind speeds were steady at around 400 km/s throughout the period. Total field strength values increased to 8 nT and the Bz component became mostly southward at around -5/-7 nT after 20/2100 UTC. The phi angle was predominately negative.
There is a 10% chance of solar activity, with a 1% chance of a minor event, a 1% chance of a moderate event, and a 1% chance of a strong event.
