Your Weekly Astrology

We have been feeling the opposition between Saturn, the planet of reality, time and hard lessons against the Sun, our identity and vitality since last week. We may have been feeling blocked, stagnant, and lethargic. Things may have been difficult to get off the ground. But now, Mercury entered Virgo on Monday and there is a big energy shift. Mercury, a planet symbolic of the Messenger of God, is now in dignity, which means that the planet is strong and potent and can express its energies clearly and directly.

Mercury in Virgo is a beneficial transit for all Earth (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) signs as well as Water (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces) signs. Notice what placements you have in your Natal Chart in these signs so you can take full advantage of these energies.

Mercury represents the mind, the way we think and express ourselves, and our ability to interact with the world around us. Mercury in Virgo invites us to examine the state of our mind, the way we are expressing ourselves in the world and the way we are interacting with others. Mercury in Virgo is practical, precise, efficient and skillful. Notice your Virgo area in your Astrological chart as that is the area where Mercury in Virgo will be this month.

Mercury in Virgo seeks to organize, clean up and improve an area of our lives. Notice what area of your life needs tidying up. Whether the closets in your home or the closets inside your heart and mind. This is a time to clean-up. Get organized. Notice what needs fixing, repairing and improving. It’s time to get your life organized. It’s time to clean up house and get rid of things you no longer need to make space for the new.

Mercury in Virgo also teaches us about how we spend our time each day. Notice your daily routines, your habits and the state of your overall wellbeing. What needs improving? This is a great time to develop new habits. A great time to question how you are using your time on a daily basis. Time is your greatest asset. Time once lost can never be recovered. How are you spending your precious time on Earth? If you don’t like your current circumstances, know that you have the power to change it.

Mercury in Virgo teaches us to live in the present moment. Mercury in Virgo teaches us to be in the here and now. Notice the state of your mind and your inner life. How much of your life are you spending thinking about the future or thinking about the past? About what could be different? About what life could have been had you made a different choice? This is the time to change your mindset. This is the time to become fully present in your life. The past is completely gone, and the future is not yet here. The past only lives in your head now. Open the doors and windows and allow the past to leave. Open your mind and heart to the life that is here and now. Your life is now. Right now. What you do now is what matters. The choices ahead of you will create the rest of your life. What choices are you now ready to make? This is your life. You are the only one that can change it.

The Virgo and Pisces axis teaches us about the savior, martyr and victim archetypes. Mercury in Virgo teaches us to step out of narratives that no longer serve us and come to our own rescue. We become aware that we can save ourselves. There will be no Prince or Princess in shiny armor coming to save us. We are it. And that’s more than enough. You are enough and more than capable to save yourself and reach for your goals, dreams and create the life you want for yourself. Stop waiting for life to be different. Make it different, and most importantly: Don’t give up. Don’t give up on yourself. Don’t give up on your dreams. Don’t give up on your life. Make this life what you want it to be. Mercury in Virgo is here to help. Let’s get to it!
