On Friday, the 15th of September 2023, Mercury, the planet associated with communication and intellect, will station direct in the earthy sign of Virgo.
When planets station to begin or end a retrograde phase, events of greater importance take place, in this case with regard to communication, and work.
But there is more.
When Mercury goes direct, it means that the apparent retrograde motion – when the planet appears to be moving backward – comes to an end.
This shift brings a change in energy, allowing Mercury’s influence to flow more freely, enabling smoother communication, improved mental clarity, and a sense of forward momentum.
In the analytical sign of Virgo, Mercury’s direct motion can have a profound impact on our practical and organizational abilities.
Virgo’s meticulous nature combines with Mercury’s cognitive prowess, creating an ideal environment for efficient problem-solving and attention to detail.
With this alignment, it is a favorable time to reassess and refine our plans, projects, and commitments.
Take this opportunity to review any areas of your life that may have felt stagnant or unclear during the retrograde phase.
Use Mercury’s direct motion to your advantage by envisioning the path ahead and making thoughtful decisions.
During Mercury’s retrograde period, miscommunications, delays, and misunderstandings may have plagued your interactions.
However, as the planet starts moving forward again, you can expect interpersonal communication to become more straightforward and effective.
Express yourself freely, share your ideas, and engage in discussions with confidence.
You can even brain storm new ideas for new projects in the near or far future bringing you material success.
