Here’s What Mercury in Scorpio Means for You, Based on Your Zodiac Sign
From Oct. 13 to Nov. 12, Mercury will be in the fixed sign Scorpio
Mercury is making its way into Scorpio this month, which could result in some deep contemplation.
In astrology, Mercury represents travel, communication, technology and cognitive thinking. The expressive planet chats its way through each zodiac sign two to three weeks, with the exception of Mercury retrograde which occurs three to four times a year.
From Oct. 13 to Nov. 12, Mercury will be in the fixed sign Scorpio. When Mercury swims through the deep waters of Scorpio, interactions with others and how we assess matters is penetrating and intense. Rather than relying on our knowledge and minds to guide us through situations and dynamics, our instincts take hold and help us navigate the occurrences in our lives.
Mercury in Scorpio can make us obsessive about finding out the truth. Since Scorpio is very direct and concise, this placement investigates and researches everything and everyone. There is no rock left unturned and no indiscretion unfound. Getting to the bottom of matters or important, so hunches we feel on a soulful level will bring us insight.
Taboos are interesting, pushing us to embrace secrets and unspeakable things. Nothing shocks us, as we are more open-minded and unafraid of the consequences of our choices. Also, we can strategize on the best ways to move forward and better ourselves. Planning is an important and efficient approach to proceeding with our decisions.
The caveat is that Scorpio is a Water sign, meaning we won’t be able to speak these sentiments but we’ll be emotionally processing them. Journaling, therapy or artistic exploration can free us of holding these feelings in and allow them to come out. Engaging in one of these activities will prove to be helpful and productive in the upcoming weeks.
