Hello,
I have been developing a TTRPG for a couple years now. I am now at a near finished state with the game and dearly need playtesting input, anyone who wishes to complete a post test questionnaire will receive a free copy of the finished book complete with character art assets!
Please do not actually donate money, this is a passion project and when it is finished I will seek money but until then I just want to share it.
Even if you do not playtest I welcome any feedback be it editing, phrasing, mechanical, worldbuilding, etc.
Any problems downloading it off itch.io let me know and I'll find another way to get you the .pdf.
Thanks again!

Short Long answer would be discussing the rise of pop astrology which is essentially capitalism finding a way to profit.

Based on that common definition a long short answer would be that a retrograde mercury's energies are different than the typical form causing disruptions. Mercury's association with perception, communication, electronics, short duration travel can bring one to the conclusion that a disruption in those areas could be bad.
If you were to examine the transit chart containing the retrograde planet in context of one's natal chart you would be able to get a more useful picture. For example someone that had a mercury opposite Venus in 7th house may have issues communicating in relationships but when experiencing a mercury retrograde simultaneously as a venus/moon conjunction it may be the catalyst for you to communicate your hidden emotions to a partner, the disruption could literally cause one to break a shy cycle and finally ask someone out.
Hope that answers your question, please feel free to follow up if it didnt
