Mercury transits

Mercury Transit in Cancer

Here, Mercury visits the Moon, which rules Cancer. During the days of this transit, people become more receptive and sensitive, intuitively sensing the underlying meanings behind others’ words and predicting how others might react to something.

People are inclined toward mysticism during this period, seeing signs in everything. Their imagination becomes rich. Information is perceived subjectively—either positively or negatively—depending on their mood.

Jokes may be taken personally, so caution is advised during this period. It can be challenging to prove that you were misunderstood.

During this transit, people think and talk more about domestic and family matters, but they share these thoughts only with close ones. People’s interests are focused on family, personal, and secret affairs. This can be used to attract their attention during this time (for example, by journalists). However, the source of information must be reliable. Advertising will be effective if it features well-known and respected individuals.

Travel is possible, but traveling with close ones is preferable.

Negative aspects intensify sensitivity to negative information and words from others, which may interfere with work. People become intolerant of criticism, touchy, moody, and inconsistent. In this state, they may speak harsh and cynical words.

Additionally, people may fail to notice danger, become self-absorbed, and not hear when others speak to them. Misunderstandings and conflicts over misinterpreted information are possible.

During this period, emotions may overshadow reason, making you somewhat subjective and overly sensitive.

It is advisable to remain calm when receiving criticism and avoid being overly critical of others.

As Mercury transits the 1st house (health, head, appearance, character, inclinations), it aspects the 7th house (marital or business partner).

Mercury rules your 3rd house (short trips, younger siblings, neighbors, surroundings, writing, art, everything created by your hands) and your 12th house (challenges, expenses, solitude or isolation, meditation, sacrifice, enlightenment, pilgrimage as work or work involving foreigners, sex, sleep).

This transit may bring success in business, the creation of a solid foundation for future progress, and the use of favorable opportunities. Correct decisions will be made, but they will yield gradual results rather than quick financial gains.

As Mercury transits the 2nd house (accumulations, income from family, speech, nourishment, parents), it aspects the 8th house (unexpected money or situations, partner’s finances, secrets, sexuality, esotericism).

Mercury rules your 1st house (health, head, appearance, character, inclinations) and your 4th house (emotions, overall happiness, mother, family, real estate, vehicles).

During this period, avoid making decisions based on emotions, as this could lead to problems. Address issues only after calming down and carefully considering the situation.

As Mercury transits the 3rd house (short trips, younger siblings, neighbors, environment, writing, art, and all things created by your own hands), it aspects the 9th house (education, spiritual growth, long journeys, father, guru, luck, dharma, courts, laws).

Mercury governs your 2nd house (accumulations, income from family, speech, nourishment, parents) and your 5th house (creativity, education, hobbies, romantic relationships, children).

New information may come your way. This is a favorable time for studying astrology.

Avoid making decisions based on emotions during this period. If something happens, take the time to think thoroughly before making a decision; otherwise, it may lead to significant problems.
