In astrology, a retrograde occurs when a planet appears to move backward through the zodiac from Earth's perspective. This optical illusion corresponds to a period of review, revision, and internalization of the planet's themes. Mercury retrograde (communication, technology) is the most famous, but all planets except the Sun and Moon experience retrograde periods. Natal retrogrades suggest the planet's energy is expressed more internally.
