Mercury X Virgo 2021 By: Erin The Urban Mermaid
August 10, 2021Well, that was a short stay in Leo wasn’t it, FireandLux Fam? On August 12, 2021, Mercury leaves Leo the Lion and will station itself over in Virgo the Virgin where it will stay until about August 29, 2021. Whenever Mercury changes signs, the shifts are truly felt!
Mercury rules over Virgo, so the planet is at home in this sign making it extra potent. Together these two rule 6th house, the “House of Health” which is quite general as this also includes habits, daily routines, wellness, chores, service and decision making.
Mercury also rules over our communication, including speaking and listening, writing, intelligence, how we process information and our higher consciousness.
It’s time to pay attention to the details of things, FireandLux Fam!
Virgo is the nitpicker (I joke, but ya know lol it is!) and extremely meticulous. It is time to get laser focused and streamline our thoughts and ideas to gain more clarity and speak with true intention.
Mercury in Virgo is also the voice of integrity. If you recall, I’ve mentioned before Virgo’s need for purity, meaning this is a BS zone! No lying, no scandals, no fudging the details! With this transit we can really dissect every angle of things before we make a decision. No impulsiveness here either! Virgo prefers to get things done right the first time, making this a highly efficient transit too. All things will be done with care, rationale and lots of consideration.
The less than desirable side to this Mercury station can have us over analyzing every single detail and being obsessive. Don’t get so caught up in minute details you forget to see the bigger picture of things. You may find yourself very irritable when distracted from what you want to accomplish.
It is also important to watch how critical you are. Are you being too harsh? No one likes to feel judged or treated like a child. And let’s not let perfectionism stand in the way of us reaching our goals!
Let’s allow this Venus in Virgo to grant us the ability to focus, gain the clarity that we need and communicate in the most effective way possible for all of our highest and best!
