5 Ways To Treat Yourself During Mercury Retrograde 🌟

While we wait out Mercury Retrograde we are warned to stay away from spending money on big ticket items. This would include a new iPhone, expensive luggage, or electronic gadgets. But, there is no rule prohibiting you to treat yourself to a little something nice.
