Mercury Retrograde Magical Candle – Calm Chaos, Restore Flow & Protect Communication
Mercury goes Retrograde three times a year—are you ready? During these intense three-week periods, everything tied to communication, travel, technology, and decision-making tends to short circuit. That’s why I created the Mercury Retrograde Magical Candle—to help protect your energy, reset your space, and restore clarity when everything feels stuck.
Mercury is the fastest-moving planet, and while it doesn’t technically move backward, it slows down so much that it feels like everything in life is hitting pause. Computers crash. Emails vanish. Misunderstandings flare. This candle is your energetic reset button.
Use this candle to:
Clear the energetic chaos of Mercury Retrograde
Protect your electronics and communication tools
Restore patience, clarity, and emotional balance
Calm interpersonal tensions and misfires
Ground your energy and finish what’s already in motion
Light your Mercury Retrograde Candle when your phone glitches, your schedule unravels, or your inbox goes quiet. It’s also a great ritual support tool during journaling, breathwork, or when restarting a project that feels blocked.
Mercury Retrograde Rules to Live By:
Avoid signing new contracts unless previously discussed
Hold off on big purchases or major commitments
Finish what you've started instead of starting new
Be extra mindful in texts, emails, and conversations
Breathe deeply, slow down, and stay flexible
Everyone is affected—some more than others—whether they realize it or not. This candle helps buffer that energetic static and reconnect you to flow.
“Being in the fast-paced publicity/marketing side of the most popular
shows at Sony, we can’t afford communications or electronics to fail
which is why I light Anita’s amazing Mercury Retrograde
candles when Mercury goes Retrograde.
One per week for three weeks. They work!”
-Lisa Dattilo, former Vice President, Creative Marketing,
Sony Pictures Television & Producer
“The computers were going crazy, so I lit my Mercury Retrograde
candle, and everything started to work. And then today,
of course, the computer wouldn't log in, and the staff was freaking out,
so I said, "Give me a second I've got to light my
Mercury Retrograde candle." I did, and immediately it went on and started working.”
-Andi Steloff, manager, Sally Hershberger Salon Los Angeles
