In this retrograde, proceed with things in a methodical way, make sure you do things right, so you don't have to go back and do them again.

Time to breathe and do things right the first time.

You shouldn't use your methods of saving time or effort in your projects, you should do it right, do it the long way.

During this retrograde we should live with the restrictions that are Saturn, while using pragmatic measures to achieve our hopes.
