What is a Retrograde? with Philip Garcia
In this episode of the Helpful Hands podcast, Philip Garcia dives deep into the cosmic phenomenon of retrograde motion, focusing on Mercury retrograde. The podcast aims to demystify this celestial event and explain its effects on communication, technology, and travel. Listeners will learn that retrograde motion occurs when a planet appears to move backward in its orbit as observed from Earth. Mercury retrograde typically happens three to four times a year, lasting about three weeks each time. The podcast also touches on other planets that go retrograde, such as Venus, Mars, and Saturn, and their impacts on various aspects of life. The discussion provides an engaging and humorous perspective on how to navigate and appreciate the cosmic chaos that retrogrades bring.
