Mercury in Cancer – June 23rd to August 30th
This year’s Mercury Cancer Journey has been extended, with the last retrograde, especially cancer, occurring in 2018. One of the more difficult aspects of mercury in cancer is waste, which is a waste that changes the signs every five days. This can lead to instability. For people born with mercury suffering from cancer, it can lead to restlessness, tension, impatience, emotional contractions, a tendency to give too much praise, and sensitivity to neurological disorders.
Mercury considers the moon as an enemy, and as an intelligent planet, it can feel uncomfortable in the emotional realm, and sometimes lead to mental confusion. If you are ruled by Gemini or Virgo, you must support logic and intelligence, and you will not be caught up in emotions when making decisions.
Fortunately, most of the time, this year’s transport is not affected by any malicious aspects. In fact, the useful Venus will enter cancer on August 21st. Mercury and Ben’s union supports creative endeavors such as writing, songwriting, and artistic expression.
This year, mercury remains in cancer, moving between 20° and 10° of cancer due to retrograde movements from July 15th to August 11th.
However, the end of the transit is more difficult. Mercury will move from August 29th to 30th Gandanta Area of ​​the constellations of Ashuresha. During this time, you need to be especially careful about harsh speech and disconnection sounds, as conflicts and enemies can be easily created. It’s also time to be cautious about poisons, toxins, or emotional triggers. Ashresha Gandanta is a karma-charged zone in which individuals try to confront emotional residues from the past and unravel the old and unresolved karmic knot.
On the D-9 Navamsha chart, mercury is weakened between 26°40′ and 29°59′ cancers, making it difficult for intelligence to function optimally. Mercury here struggles to find spiritual comfort rather than relying on logic, but that’s not its strength. As a result, the most intense and potentially unstable part of this transit will be August 29th-30th.
Gemini and Virgo rise signs (or moon signs) can experience deep emotional and psychological challenges during this transit. But they may also discover the mental strength needed to work through and overcoming mental disorders associated with home, family, safety and upbringing. For these signs, this transport occurs in the second and 11 homes. This can ultimately be productive and beneficial when dealing with emotional turbulence.
The silver lining is that mercury passing through the second and 11 homes generally supports profits. Conversely, individuals with rising cancer may find this passage can be mentally taxed because it increases the emotional and cognitive burden.
Mercury usually works well when passing through the second, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 11 homes from the moon or rising sign. Therefore, signs of rising (or moon) for Virgo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius, Aries, and Taurus can lead to better directions during this period. Dasha Cycles and chart coefficients.
