Astrology of Now: This Transit of Mercury

This afternoon, at around 4pm GMT, the little planet of speed, insight, commerce and travel, dances across the face of the Sun. With the right equipment, you’ll be able to see it. And I think it’s astrologically significant too. Mercury’s transit to the Sun happens 14 times this century — and only in Taurus or Scorpio. This is the axis of the material vs the hidden, the object and its shadow, procreation and death, sex and power, ownership and enslavement. Last time, Mercury retrograded in Scorpio was 2012 and 2013 — but last time he performed this particular dance in […]

  • Scorpio Sun conjunct Mercury RX (18°)

The inferior conjunction between the Sun and Mercury marks the halfway point of Mercury’s retrograde. This can be a time of clarity as the deep reviews and investigations suddenly make sense. You might uncover what you’ve been searching for or reach a turning point in the process of questioning. A secret could be revealed or the intense, repeat conversation could bear fruit.

Mercury will still be retrograde so there will not be forward movement just yet, but there should be an understanding of how to tackle the remainder of this transit. Know that what you discover today will be the absolute truth.

Full Moon in Taurus

The November 12th Taurus Full Moon (19°, 8:34 AM EST) conjoins Vesta RX (absolute focus and devotion). So we know these results will zero in on an issue involving security, money, preservation, habits or self-esteem, and the issue will be extremely important. It might be something that feels sacred to you, therefore you’re attempting to preserve or grow it. The value (not necessarily dollar value) will be very high.

Vesta’s exclusive focus means limits (in some ways she acts like Saturn) and the fact that she is RX means the focus and limits will be intensified because you’re dealing with this again or you’re looking at it more closely. 

The Moon will oppose a separating Sun/Mercury RX conjunction (that was exact on November 11th) so the information that is revealed on November 11th will feed into the results of this Full Moon. There will be clarity about information from the past, or something you’ve been investigating. While you may see this clearly, Vesta’s limits opposing Mercury RX mean you may not be able to openly communicate what you know. Or, there may be some very strict rules about what you can and cannot say.

Nonetheless, you should gain a significant understanding about the results of what you value or are trying to preserve. Moon/Vesta will trine Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn, which adds tremendous power and longevity to these results. If this is a commitment, it should last. If this is something you’re trying to formalize, you’ve succeeded. If you’re trying to manifest something, your absolute focus (Vesta) discipline (Saturn) and intensity (Pluto) will make it happen. 

These results will demand your total commitment and attention-you will not be looking anywhere else and no distractions will be allowed. Note that Taurus is a Fixed sign and with the involvement of Saturn, Vesta RX and Mercury RX, know that these will not be quick results. You’ve either spent a long, long time working towards this or what comes about now will take a long time to grow.

But it’s totally worth it. Yes, even if this is an ending, there is a sense of valuable preservation and confirmation of security. With the RX influences, maybe you’re finally closing the door on something from the past.
