Popular dating app Tinder has seen the term "Zodiac" increase by 75 percent* in bios globally. Cosmic shifts are also a hot topic on Tinder and the last time that Mercury was in retrograde in September 2021, mentions of "Mercury" increased by almost 20 percent globally.
Instead of leaving its astro-loving members to fend for themselves, Tinder asked spiritual coach Devina Badhwar to summon her divine power and share an insight on how Mercury retrograde will impact your love life.
