Mercury transits

Preface

As transiting Mercury moves sequentially through all the signs of the zodiac, it makes us more or less resourceful and quick-witted. Therefore, it is important to know its current position and whether its motion is retrograde to avoid mistakes and better understand the intentions of others.

About Mercury Transits

Mercury belongs to the group of the fastest-moving planets in transit (Mercury, Venus, and Mars). Among these, Mercury is the fastest, spending less than a month in each sign. As Mercury travels through the zodiac, it gathers information and knowledge and engages in numerous beneficial dealings. In some cases, it returns to a particular place to complete unfinished business or repeat a lesson (during retrograde motion).

Mercury achieves its maximum potential in Virgo, its own sign and sign of exaltation. Mercury's other own sign is Gemini, where it is slightly less powerful than in Virgo.

Mercury is also successful in the signs of Libra, Leo, and Taurus (its friendly signs), although it is weaker here than in its own signs and exaltation.

The signs of Capricorn, Aquarius, Aries, Scorpio, and Sagittarius are neutral for Mercury, meaning it displays average strength in these signs.

In Cancer, Mercury loses much of its potential.

Pisces is Mercury's sign of debilitation, where it has the lowest potential.

In a natal chart, Mercury indicates how curious, resourceful, and quick-witted a person is. Transiting Mercury also has an influence. As it moves through a specific sign, it temporarily endows us with the qualities of that sign. At times, we become more sociable and business-oriented, while at other times, less so. Mercury completes its journey through the entire zodiac in approximately one year.

When making predictions, it is essential to consider both natal and transiting planets that aspect or are located in the same house as transiting Mercury.

Transiting Mercury casts a direct aspect on the seventh house from its position.

Mercury Transit in Aries

Here, Mercury interacts with Mars, the ruler of Aries. During this time, communication and interactions become highly energized. People become more goal-oriented, seek connections, promote new ideas, exhibit initiative, and confidently defend their viewpoints with solid reasoning.

The most prominent topics of conversation during this transit are personal matters. Individuals may interrupt others’ conversations, speak loudly, or adopt a commanding tone. Many encounter unsolicited advice or teachings directed at them. Everyone seems to know what should be done, though not everyone acts on it, as during this transit, actions often boil down to mere discussions. People can speak so convincingly that they are likely to attract supporters.

Those promoting something will not lack attention, as individuals are easily inspired by ideas and impulsive in decision-making during this time. Information is absorbed and processed quickly, making this period favorable for journalists, brokers, and anyone whose work depends on obtaining information first. People seek sensational news, often passing it along with slight exaggerations.

In work, impulsive decision-making, excessive talking, and extremes can be disruptive. People may criticize others or express their thoughts openly, leading to arguments. They voice opinions on various topics to stand out. A person may either stubbornly defend their point of view to the end or suddenly change it.

Travel during this transit tends to be impulsive.

Under Negative Aspects, there may be impatience with differing opinions, pretentiousness, and an inclination to nitpick others’ words, feeling easily offended. Individuals themselves might become rude or dismissive, boastful, exaggerate their achievements, or make disparaging remarks about others.

People may jump from one task to another, finding it hard to concentrate. Productivity tends to decline due to a loss of interest in work.

Nothing is taken on faith without proof.

As a result, it becomes challenging to promote new ideas or implement innovations. Changes in the workplace are met with resistance. During this period, it is better not to impose anything on employees; instead, give them more time to think, weigh everything, and adapt. Workers may become slower but also more patient and attentive, which helps them make fewer mistakes. This is a favorable time for intellectual tasks, reports, calculations, and other detailed work.

People are not trying to prove they are right; instead, they enjoy informative conversations, wordplay, harmless jokes, and pranks. Information does not affect people as deeply as it does at other times.

During this period, people remember only what is truly important. Attention is scattered, and they are easily distracted by everything happening around them, making it hard to learn new things. There is an increased thirst for knowledge, and many might enroll in various courses.

Decisions are made quickly and easily. However, as Mercury leaves Gemini, interest in courses wanes because in-depth study, mental, emotional, or physical effort begins to feel tedious. Any information received during this time should be verified.

People become spontaneous and ready for travel. It is easy to meet new people on the road, but these acquaintances are often quickly forgotten after the journey ends.

Under negative aspects, people may become restless, talkative, and find it hard to stay in one place for long.

Here, Mercury visits the Moon, which rules Cancer. During the days of this transit, people become more receptive and sensitive, intuitively sensing the underlying meanings behind others’ words and predicting how others might react to something.

Mercury rules your 1st house (health, head, appearance, character, inclinations) and your 4th house (emotions, overall happiness, mother, family, real estate, vehicles).

Mercury Transit in Cancer Through the 3rd House (Ascendant or Moon in Taurus)

During this period, avoid making decisions based on emotions, as this could lead to problems. Address issues only after calming down and carefully considering the situation.

As Mercury transits the 3rd house (short trips, younger siblings, neighbors, environment, writing, art, and all things created by your own hands), it aspects the 9th house (education, spiritual growth, long journeys, father, guru, luck, dharma, courts, laws).

Mercury governs your 2nd house (accumulations, income from family, speech, nourishment, parents) and your 5th house (creativity, education, hobbies, romantic relationships, children).

Mercury Transit in Cancer Through the 4th House (Ascendant or Moon in Aries)

New information may come your way. This is a favorable time for studying astrology.

Avoid making decisions based on emotions during this period. If something happens, take the time to think thoroughly before making a decision; otherwise, it may lead to significant problems.
