Mercury enters Sagittarius

Mercury enters Sagittarius

Mercury is in Sagittarius from November 10 to December 1, 2023. Later, on December 23rd, retrograde Mercury will return to Sagittarius, and Mercury will stay in Sagittarius until January 13th, 2024. [Mercury turns retrograde in Capricorn on December 13th and ends its retrograde in Sagittarius on January 1st.]

When Mercury is in Sagittarius, our thinking shifts from a need to plumb the depths of any given situation to the desire to learn about a wide range of topics. We seek ideals, our thinking is more optimistic, and our faith increases. We are more equipped to believe and to persuade. What is fair and unfair concerns us most now. However, we are not always very precise under this influence.

We’re more inclined to ask questions and seek answers during this forward-looking cycle. We might often wax philosophical, and we enjoy wrapping our minds around new concepts and ideas. Still, the details are not as interesting to us now, as we prefer to envision the big picture.

On the downside, we can be inconsistent and lack attention to details. While frank and open, we can also be tactless during this period. We’re generous with our communications and input, and we’re humorous and friendly at this time.
