Retrograde Mercury enters Aquarius

Retrograde Mercury enters Aquarius

Mercury moves back into the sign of Aquarius on February 18th, 2027. It will be retrograde in Aquarius only until March 3rd, but Mercury will continue in the sign of Aquarius until March 18th.

When Mercury is in Aquarius, we are hungry for knowledge and open to new and original ideas. We begin to think outside of the box, and our thinking becomes more progressive and objective. Our communication and thought patterns are spontaneous, somewhat fragmented, and liberal. This is a time when inventive thinking is at a peak.

While Mercury began its retrograde on February 9th in the sign of Pisces, retrograde Mercury returns to the sign of Aquarius on February 18th, 2027.

Mercury is in Aquarius from February 18-March 18, 2027 (it just recently visited from January 13-31).

Mercury’s retrograde cycle, lasting from February 9th to March 3rd, is the reason for Mercury returning to Aquarius so soon after leaving the sign. The retrograde began in Pisces, but with reverse motion, Mercury now dips back into Aquarius.
