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.

Mercury Transit in Aries through the 1st House (Ascendant or Moon in Aries)

During this time, you become very enterprising, ready to engage in debates, implement your ideas, and display greater persistence. However, it may not be easy to convince others of your point of view.

While transiting the 1st house (health, head, appearance, character, inclinations), Mercury aspects the 7th house (spouse or business partner).

Mercury governs your 3rd house (short trips, younger siblings, neighbors, surroundings, writing, art, and everything you create with your hands) and your 6th house (debts, enemies, illnesses, hard work, and cousins).

Mercury Transit in Aries through the 2nd House (Ascendant or Moon in Pisces)

A strong interest in earning money arises during this period, along with the ability to identify new opportunities. If you are involved in business, this time promises success in sales. You will have abundant energy for these pursuits.

While transiting the 2nd house (savings, income from family, speech, food, parents), Mercury aspects the 8th house (unexpected money or events, inheritance, partner's finances, secrets, sexuality, esotericism).
