With retrograde Mercury in your chart, you may have a tendency to introspect deeply before communicating or making decisions. You may also have a strong intuition or ability to analyze things from a different perspective.

• 3rd house: The third house represents communication, siblings, short travels, and mental abilities. With retrograde Mercury in the third house, you may struggle with communication at times. There may be some hesitation, confusion or misunderstandings with siblings or close friends. However, this placement can also make you a great writer, speaker, or teacher.

• Taurus sign: Taurus is an earth sign and represents stability, material possessions, and sensual pleasures. With retrograde Mercury in Taurus, you may take longer than others to process information and make decisions. However, once you make up your mind, you tend to stick to your decision. You may also have an intense interest in financial matters or the arts.

Overall, retrograde Mercury in the 3rd house in Taurus sign can lead to some challenges with communication and decision making, but it can also bring unique gifts such as a reflective communication style, intuition, and persistence.
