Mercury moves into Aquarius on 10th February at 09:05 where it will stay until March 1st.
The planet has been in Capricorn since December 5th so this might seem like a welcome relief. Mercury in Capricorn brought a serious edge to our thinking - since December we may have been laying the groundwork and foundations, working on plans, making lists - the retrograde phase over Christmas and the New Year further emphasised and deepened this mindset that is looking intently at how it presents itself.
This move into Aquarius then may feel like the first release or shift from these feelings - a sort of 'loosening of the bolts', a chance to think a bit more three dimensionally again. The long Capricorn stint may have become to drag - perhaps we made lots of plans, laid groundwork, but then...there was an impasse. Mercury in Aquarius offers the opportunity to enliven again, to think of alternatives. Mercury was the messenger of the gods and being stuck in one place for too long weakens his message gift - no one sees or hears it!
So, for three weeks we have a chance to tune in again - free the mind to buzz and dart - to awaken, rather like having a cold bucket of water thrown over you by the water bearer. The energy of the sky is still rather 'stilted' with action planet Mars still in its long retrograde but this transit affords us the chance to listen to the music of the spheres again.
