On October 20, a powerful aspect takes place: Mercury, the planet of communication, conjuncts the Sun in the sign of Libra. But what does that mean, and how can you use this to your advantage?
The planets and the stars move constantly in the skies, forming aspects with one another: the main aspects we usually examine are conjunctions, oppositions, triangles, squares and hexagons. Some of these aspects (conjunctions, triangles, hexagons) are beneficial to us, as it means two different energies of different planets come together creating a stronger energy as a result — while other aspects (oppositions, squares) are more troublesome, hinting at disharmony. A conjunction is the strongest positive aspect there is!
With the Sun and Mercury literally on the same page (aka on the same degree of the same astrological sign), you can expect an increased clarity in your thoughts and communication. Use this energy with confidence, to take the next steps toward your life’s purpose.
