Mercury entered Scorpio 11/5 3:35pm pst

After spending a good chunk of time in flighty, romantic Libra & making it through its chaotic yet insightful retrograde - we move into the waves of Scorpio. Suspicions are typically high, secrets are revealed & there is much ending & beginning on a functional level. Mercury rules our day to day, our mental processing & decision making.

In the fixed 🜄 waters we’re able to connect deeply to our emotions & instincts - letting them take lead on how we move on a daily basis, so it’s important during this transit to have healthy boundaries with everything, time to sift through our feelings, & outside sources of support/a listening ear. This energy has us all reading between the lines, thinking more in depth about the interactions we have & able to have tougher, honest communication. You may find yourself reading a lot into everything that happens & everything said to you, you could be moodier than usual affecting what you’re able to get done, & things may just feel more intense and heavy in the thickness of fall.

There are quite a few significant interactions Mercury has during its transit through Scorpio - making some creative growth and change provoking ones with Saturn, Jupiter & Uranus - we can absorb the energy to help to discipline ourselves and make strides in how we not only communicate & understand things but also in how we manage our time & tasks. Right before the Eclipse Mercury gets some downloads from Neptune ℞, i believe this to be a reminder to just listen & be in a space of receiving as eclipses carry high energy we’re meant to surrender to. Neptune adding to this can erase any logic and conscious sense, so utilize the energy to dissolve any lingering limiting beliefs, thought patterns and detrimental habits. Near the end of its Scorpio transit Pluto lends a helping hand to Mercury, gifting us a possible missing piece of information, treasure or reminder.

All in all this transits helps us to become sharper, more in tune with our surroundings & each other & forces us to deepen in our authenticity & communication with everything.
