There are two types of people in the world. Those that cower in the face of Mercury Retrograde, and liars.

And folks, we regret to inform you that it’s back.

From February 17 to March 10, might we suggest blaming every single inconvenience on the astrological event? Our Pisces and Aquarian pals will be feeling the harsh burn of Mercury Retrograde particularly strongly, so how about a hibernation-based approach to ease your pain?

The star signs when there's a problem at work. Post continues below.

To make matterevenworse, Mercury Retrograde will be occurring while the planet is in Pisces. For all their wonderfully empathetic and caring traits, they can also be a touch over-reactive and sensitive, i.e. you, for the next 19 days.

Writing for Cosmopolitan , US astrologer, Kyle Thomas, says that because Mercury "is all about logic," this astrological clash will leave us feeling "dazed and confused".

"You will be very sensitive at this time," he said.

"Your intuition will be strong, though, so be sure to balance your mind with your heart. Pay heed to the messages the universe sends you."

Communication will be a particular sore point and you might feel as if all your unresolved issues are back to haunt you. Things like past resentments, former relationships and 'that thing you keep on putting off' will continue to pester you until you make amends for good.

That also goes for that email you haven't been responding to or that conversation you keep putting off. Instead, you must make like a Nike commercial and Just. Do. It.

March 11 is coming.
