Mercury wants you to increase your
expertise. He has just entered Aquarius. Raising your mental
vibration is his job. Uranus is the higher vibration of Mercury. So,
while Mercury is in his “house,” Uranus challenges him, inspires
him, takes him out of a singular mindset and reminds him of the
collective mindset, pointing him toward socially inclined issues. He
wants you to make friends. Join groups. Stretch what you know into
higher concepts.
How this will play out depends on where
your Mercury is and how Mercury in Aquarius will aspect that. In a
water sign, such as Scorpio, Cancer or Pisces the challenge will be
particularly astute because Mercury in Aquarius encourages you to
rise above the swirling emotional waters and become observant and
detached from them somewhat. He's not going to understand why you are
so adamant about intuition. You are not going to understand why he
thinks everything is black and white or cut and dry. However, he can
help you blend intuitive knowledge without drowning in emotion and
imbue you with calm, cool logic.
In an Earth sign, such as Taurus, Virgo
and Capricorn, he's going to push you out of deep grooved thinking
ruts. Challenge you to learn new things. Push you out of what you
know and shove you into leveling up those skills. Most of the time,
the Earth Mercury's are very practical. They like to become set in
their ways and stick to routine. If Mercury in Earth needs to update
his informational systems (be inspired, receive new information to
push them out of the rut) then Aquarius can help.
In Air, Mercury in Aquarius adds to
your conversations. He plays naturally and enjoys exchanging ideas
with both Libra and Gemini even if he reserves the right to say that
he is smarter than them both. Interactions with Air Mercury's will be
the easiest providing for inspired conversations, collaborative
efforts or just joining in light conversations with circles of
friends. He will likely be the antagonist in the group. If Libra and
Gemini are discussing things and in agreement, Aquarius will be the
instigator that says, “Yeah, but what if..” bringing a very
astute amount of high minded logic with him. Gemini and Libra do not
mind. They enjoy the fresh new perspective and are entertained by
Aquarius.
In Fire, as with Aries, Sagittarius and
Leo the conversation becomes active. Aquarius and Leo don't see eye
to eye. But, they can balance one another out. Leo reminds Aquarius
that personal nuance matters while Aquarius reminds Leo that he is a
singular part of a much bigger puzzle. Aquarius encourages Leo
Mercury to take his dramatics to the stage in an acting troupe. Leo
reminds Aquarius that he's human not a robot and should probably try
to remember that. Sagittarius and Aquarius get along just fine. They
swap ideas lightly and laugh together. About the only thing that
hampers this situation is when Sagittarius waxes into religion and
perhaps politics. Aquarius doesn't mind talking about that but he
also wants to explore the scientific or social/cultural data that may
explain whatever phenomena they are discussing. He wants to talk
about the dynamic and influence of politics and religion upon the
collective through sociological or anthropological concepts. When
they blend their ideas, they may come to a point of understanding. A
broader and more complete picture of each concept as a whole emerges.
Other than that, Sagittarius warms Aquarius and encourages him to
lighten up, come out of his head and have some real fun.
Aries does much the same thing.
Aquarius is not a warrior. He's not so much an athlete. But, still
these two Mercuries do interact nicely...as long as Aquarius is
willing to think on the go. We will see a little how Aquarius and
Aries interact in the coming days as Mercury in Aquarius sextiles
Venus in Aries. He will also sextile Uranus in Aries truly adding a
higher octave to the mixture of Uranus, Mercury and Mars. These two
energies work swiftly, bravely and with a pre-planned agenda. Mercury
in Aquarius is the strategist. The legal eagle. The surgeon or
specialist. Aries says, let's put this plan in motion, do some
trials, do a test run....now! While Aquarius sits back and takes
notes of how the experiment goes as Aries is running it through. The
sextile incoming from Mercury to Venus in Aries will be likened to
the geeks in high school banding together with the girl jocks. Or
like the King of Swords joining up with the Queen of Wands. Oh yeah.
That's a formidable combination but can most certainly encourage you
to employ those wonderfully inspired ideas that Mercury in Aquarius
brings into action and application. The geek gets the girl here and
she serves as his muse and motivation. It's a very nice, very forward
moving (gracefully) and quite collaborative interaction linking
groups that normally don't interact together and giving them a common
cause to work toward.
My Mercury is in Scorpio in the 11th
house. So while I'm a water thinker, I also know how to blend the
concepts of Aquarius into that. I rarely meet with too much
disagreement from this placement. But, I do laugh at it from time to
time when it only takes into consideration facts and doesn't look at
things like emotional impact or nuance.
Where is your Mercury? How will this
transit of Mercury through Aquarius challenge you to level up your
thinking? To expand your knowledge and expertise? Have you been given
a chance to see how you interact with this placement in previous
relationships with others? What house in your chart will he be
bringing your attention to?
