Mercury in Aquarius

Mercury Moves into Aquarius 28 January - 15 February 2024

Mercury is the planet of communication, ideas and how we think. You will notice your thoughts speed up, ideas coming in hot and the ability to see things from a very different perspective – almost like your looking down on yourself and can see your life from an angle that allows you to see all your possible options.  It may be harder to concentrate as you find yourself wanting to rebel and do something different.  It's a great time to listen to those ‘aha’ moments that will be coming to you (I suggest writing them down).  As Aquarius is an air sign, you will feel more detached than usual and more in your intellect (if you feel ungrounded get out into nature).  Stimulating conversations and topics about the future, technology, innovation, science, environment and the metaphysical are bound to crop up more than usual over the next few weeks.  You will feel attracted to like-minded people even more around this time and no doubt will be wanting to be around groups of friends more (good time to socialise). It's a great time to be part of something with a great cause in your community. Look to your Natal chart to the house ruled by Aquarius to get a deeper understanding of how this placement will affect your mind over the next few weeks.

Dates that may be important to watch out for with the Sun in Aquarius:
