Mercury Sun Superior Conjunction

| Mercury Superior Conjunction |
Mercury is now in the middle of its synodic cycle with the Sun, the phase equivalent to the Full Moon, or Full Mercury if you like. This means that whatever started at the previous conjunction in Libra is now at the fruition stage. Feel free to go back to that link for my Daily Transit, but maybe you remember that the "new" Mercury was exactly conjunct Mars, and that there were several conflicts in the news.
Personal relationships were strained and there was friction in the air. Also, during Mercury Retrograde period, he squared Pluto a couple of times, which made for relationship power struggles. Now, you see the outcome and completion of those tensions.
From late November 27 to early November 30, "Mercury will pass very close to the Sun in the sky as its orbit carries it around the far side of the solar system from the Earth". This occurs once in every synodic cycle of the planet (116 days), and marks the end of Mercury's apparition in the morning sky and its transition to become an evening object over the next few weeks" (in-the-sky.org) However, Mercury will still be invisible under the sunrays for several weeks.

From our point of view on Earth, we are not able to see Mercury on the other side of the Sun; he is overtaken by its light and warmth. Your mind can now get clarity for about 24-36 hours (November 28-29), so you may fully understand the meaning of its cycle from Libra to Sagittarius. You have certainly broaden your vision of those relationship challenges, and can now appreciate them in an ampler or deeper perspective (Sagittarius).
As Mercury moves on, will be closing several other planetary cycles. From Sagittarius, he forms waning semi-squares to Venus and Pluto, sextile to Saturn, quintile to Jupiter, biseptile to Neptune, and trine to Chiron. The prolific amount of aspects that Mercury makes as he drifts along, explains why your mind is so active and can never keep quiet.
The semi-square to Venus and Pluto respectively can give you great frustration in matters of purchases, financial decisions, and organization of your resources, most probably because you miss the minute details. No matter how much effort you put on them, you cannot see the tangible results. Better wait a couple of days until Mercury sextile Saturn on November 30. Although he trines Chiron since the evening before, Saturn seems to support the mind and give physical shape to the enthusiastic and optimistic visionary projects of Mercury in Sagittarius.
Then on December 7, Mercury will square Neptune, and your mind will go up to in lala land. Then you'll be inspired to write poetry or music, or write and send good wishes of Happy Holidays and New Year Prosperity to your friends and family.
Enjoy the mental ride!
