Mercury began its methodical transit through
the traditional, reliable sign of Capricorn today, December 31st, at 9:03 AM EST
... this is the energy of a highly organized mentality ... it is a hard worker
that stores up facts and figures for future practical use ... it is cautious and
highly methodical as it knows what it wants and exactly how it plans to get it
... the mind as well as the tongue are serious and sensible ... communication is
made cautiously, and for those born with this energy in their youth there could
be doubt as to ones mental ability therefore yielding a need to prove onesself
as having a good mind ... there is sometimes this doubt associated with limited
educational opportunities in childhood that may be overcome by further study in
adulthood ... words here are usually not spoken until they are well thought out
unless, of course, MODIFIED by something else in the natal chart !!! ... one can
appear to be rather formal, authoritative, reserved and self-sufficient which
can sometimes inhibit communications with others ... natural logic and cautious
planning are oriented towards material success and/or personal responsibilities
... thinking is well-organized ... learning is achieved through persistence,
dedication, and steady progress ... one might become a little pessimistic under
this energy by mistakenly focusing on limits rather than potentials ... here we
have a Mercury/Saturn (ruler of Capricorn) relationship that will ultimately
give a very structured, organized and well thought out quality to the mind and communicating if
there is no other energy adversely modifying it ... and with Saturn currently transiting through the sign of Scorpio, we may be digging very deep down investigating facts and information in order to communicate more forcefully and effectively with others !!!
Mercury in Capricorn can make one ambitious, careful, calculating and patient ... one excels at handling detail and rarely loses sight of the overall picture ... people born under this energy often obtain positions of leadership due to their dependability and their air of authority ... one must guard against becoming too dictatorial though ... the darker side of life is often viewed under this energy, yet a redeeming trait would be the very dry sense of humor bestowed here ...
The energy of Mercury in Capricorn is all thinking and communicating through building ... the mind rules the matter ... it's the organizer ... there is the capability of extended concentration and excellent organization ... one becomes realistic rather than idealistic in the approach to their goals ... little of practical consequence escapes ones attention due to a keen sense of awareness ... think of Mercury in Capricorn like a laser beam - pointed and locked on exactly what it wants and it will know exactly how to get it ... ultimately it is not the facts that ones mind contains that determines its quality - it is how you use your mind and what you use it for that counts ... one of the essential lessons of Mercury in Capricorn is to learn to USE concrete facts but NOT be weighed down by them ... when you achieve this, you realize how ridiculous it is being enslaved to material status and belongings ... the energy of Mercury in Capricorn can be expressed in the following ways:
POSITIVE: good timing, mentally cautious, not easily fooled, retentive mind, methodical mind, orderly mind, serious when necessary, level-headed, clever, discriminating, shrewd, profits from little, employs others, sober, clear and deliberating mind, strong concentration, painstaking, patient
NEGATIVE: procrastinating, slow learner, sceptical, mentally overloaded, lacking originality and imagination, given to melancholy, boring and rigid, suspicious, devious, avaricious, uses others, stern, dry minded
Use this energy well and you will never lose sight of what really counts the most - your resourcefulness ... be sure to give your mind a break when it needs it, or IT may break !!! ... help to inspire others with a goal that you are able to see more clearly than they can ...
Mercury remains in the sign of Capricorn until January 18th/19th depending on the time zone in which you live ... no doubt my fellow Capricorns and I will come up with some truly scathingly brilliant ideas as it passes through our birth sign and eventually transits over our natal Sun placement ... and perhaps it is rather appropriate that we begin a New Year with a mindset geared towards careful, patient planning that will result in achieving our intended goals and ambitions ... but we may not really feel the true beginning of this energy as the Moon goes void of course today at 4:52 PM EST in Leo - making New Years eve celebrations maybe somewhat less than rigorous normally - and doesn't move into Virgo, which is ruled by Mercury, until 12:52 PM EST New Years day !!! ... and for the next 20 days, one way to sum up this transit comes in a well known phrase made famous from the television series Dragnet - "JUST THE FACTS M'AM" !!!
