When the planetary messenger is traveling through the cardinal, fiery, yang temple of Mars…this is a time of fast talking, rapid thinking and putting out fires. The best part of Mercury in Aries is exciting new ideas coming forth from Inspired thoughts. It can be marked by competitive ideas and fiery debates. People tend to be impulsive, feisty, hot-tempered and impatient during this transit. Mercury in Aries is bossy, bold and blunt, saying say exactly what’s on its mind with no filter. This Mercury joins Vesta, Chiron, Jupiter and Eris, who are all already in Aries, so our charts are lit up in whatever section Aries rules. On actual fire for some people!! This can bring heated discussions and fiery debates. Vesta will talk to Mercury about what’s sacred to him in life and what he is truly devoted to, Chiron will speak to the physical, emotional or spiritual pain involved, Jupiter is ready to promote and blow shit up, and Eris the Goddess of discord is stirring the pot! Big decisions about things that are deeply important need to be made quickly over the next three weeks. Decisive action in painful situations is imminent. There will be a lot of discussion about courage, health, injuries, accidents and war as Mercury travels through the sign of the warrior this year!
