When is Mercury retrograde in 2023?

Mercury goes retrograde three or four times per year each year, for three weeks at a time. In 2023, all four retrogrades take place in earth signs — we will be making ideas material, recovering from bodily stress, and preparing for a more sustainable future. (Some of these themes are mirrored in some of the other astrology of 2023 too, like Saturn in Pisces!)
