Mercury in Sagittarius
 |
| Hermes, Carlo Lasinio, 1516, after Raphael. |
Mercury enters Sagittarius. Get ready for long distance mental and physical travels. Mercury is uncomfortable in a Fire Sign where ideas are hard to grasp, reason is useless, and facts difficult to prove.
Mercury in Sagittarius is like travelling by a flying car; what's the use of its wheels, right? Plus, the wind will blow it so fast that the driver or rider would not be able to stop and admire each cloud, you know.
With Mercury in Sagittarius, you'd rather be thinking and talking about distance lands, religious matters and cultural identities.
As you see, not a good time to balance your checkbook, or calculate your taxes. Why such removal from Mercury's typical behavior. There are a few reasons of reasons.
One, he's combust, or invisible right now, not at his best, really.

The other is that Mercury blends with the 'flavor' of the Sign, and planets he touches; in this case idealist and abstract Sagittarius.
Another, is his current Morning Star condition. As such, he travels fast, approaching the Sun, comparably to the waxing Moon.
This is the time when your mental work is more intense. You can process information quickly, have abundance of visionary ideas, but may overlook details.
Update: Mercury conjoins the South Node November 25, which also contributes to the sluggish mind. Communications are more difficult, devices may present problems. As softwares may need upgrade, so does your thinking. Your ready to discard old ideas, paperwork, letters, emails, junk mail, newspapers. Enjoy recycling! With the Holiday, as you have more time to relax, it's a great time to clean up your email box.
Then, Mercury will meet the Sun once again, marking the middle of its synodic cycle (Full Moon status), time of illumination. More to come on this by November 28. Stay tuned.
