Mercury will journey through Aries from April 17th to May 6th. The planet Mercury is famous for communication while Aries is a sign of action, and it will. If you want your words turned into action then there is no other alignment that helps you like the Mercury in Aries one.
It’s a passionate alignment and brings about new perspectives and energy in you while pushing you to try out the new and the frightening things. Aries is also the first sign in the zodiac cycle which shows the characteristic of a leader, leading everyone towards the new astrological year.
Mercury in Aries
Aries is full of passion and is always moving towards its goal. So, when Mercury ends up in Aries, we will become a bit restless, especially regarding our communication.
However, Aries provides us with a lot of courage and with Mercury coming into Aries, we start to communicate what we exactly think and feel.
We will be frank about what we reveal and would not really worry about what others would think about it. While frankness is great, there should be a bit of tact and sympathy in communication too. But integrating sympathy with your communication becomes challenging when Mercury is in Aries.
But on the plus side, we become more innovative and courageous. We will get fresh insight into things that we had to keep stacked in the mind because we did not know how to go about it.
Now that new solutions are coming to you, don’t start doubting them. They are the best for now because Mercury provides intellectual perception and Aries provides courage, both important aspects of decision making.
Mercury Retrograde in Aries
The Mercury retrograde in Aries took place back in 22nd March. With this retrograde period, there will be a few obstacles that come in our way.
Mercury retrograde is a time when miscommunications start happening and this is empowered by the impulsive Aries.
During the retrograde period, you will start communicating in a hurry, sometimes saying things you do not want to say and this can affect your relationship with others.
So, while words want to come out easily, you will have to think before you speak. Or else, you will end up in a terrible argument with someone and regret it later on.
What Happens If Mercury In Aries Was Your Birth Period?
If you were someone who was born when Mercury was in Aries, then congratulations for having both courage and communication on your side. In general, you will be very frank.
Unlike others, you do not like to sugarcoat anything or beat around the bush. You will be straightforward and that could be one of the reasons why some people will not like you as a person.
However, you will be appreciated for your courage. If there is a risky plan, then you are invited to take the lead in the decision-making process.
While others may drown themselves in multiple possibilities or get frightened by the risks, you are capable of looking at the big picture and pinpointing exactly what is required.
Since Mercury in Aries was the alignment that happened during your birth and ended up defining your personality, you will come up with innovative takes on different things.
While there might be some resistance to your revolutionary ideas, the way you communicate with both courage and humor can win over people easily. Your relationship with procrastination is dicey.
You have never really looked up ‘How to procrastinate’ on the internet. There is no thought involved before you jump and react. As a result, you keep charging on like a leader with an important goal in mind.
Some of your traits are:
- Decisive
- Enthusiastic
- Spontaneous
- Outspoken
- Inventive
- Assertive
- Candid
- Alert
- Confident
So, enjoy the energy of Mercury in Aries. Get ready to have your words turn into action. Become a leader in your own right!
