Mercury trine Jupiter: open your mind

Mercury trine Jupiter Open your eyes and your mind by Acid Flo.

On 4 October Mercury trines Jupiter. This is the first of three trines to Jupiter who turns direct this month after almost four months in retrograde motion. Mercury trine Jupiter brings openness to possibility and potential and a greater awareness of other perspectives.

Mercury is a fast moving planet that nevertheless has a powerful impact if you happen to be affected by it personally. If so, during this time you’re likely to be more open to other ways of looking at things, new solutions to old problems will pop into mind unexpectedly and there will be an increased desire to learn and to gather knowledge.

During Mercury trine Jupiter syncronicity is enhanced and you may unexpectedly bump into the right people at the right time. Finding the information you need will be easier too and others will be forthcoming with helpful ideas. Getting your own ideas across will come naturally as well but remember to remain open to other perspectives. The old saying that we have something to learn from everyone we meet is particularly true during Mercury trine Jupiter!

Jupiter is retrograde in visionary Aquarius, and Mercury is retrograde in Libra, so this transit is likely to impact our thinking more than our communication. However being open to differing points of view can only be a positive thing in our interactions with others. Expanding your view point through conversation is just one of the ways that that Mercury trine Jupiter can open your mind.

Travel, reading and cultural exchange can also be very beneficial during this time and may lead to new opportunities and good fortune. Be sure to take advantage of every opportunity that comes your way, bearing in mind that sometimes we may not recognise them as such.

it’s likely that we’ll finally be able to come up with innovative solutions for stuck situations that suit all parties. Allow yourself to enjoy a more diffuse and open-minded way of looking at the world. Planning and strategizing is not highly favoured during this time but brainstorming is! Let you mind roam free and record any ideas that come through.

Positive thinking comes naturally during Mercury trine Jupiter so this is also a great time to take up your wand of manifestation and make some magic happen in any area in your life that has been stuck or congested. Be careful however that your over-confidence doesn’t lead you to see only the positive side of a situation when there are issues that need to be addressed.

On the downside, Mercury trine Jupiter can make us prone to talking things up and to getting carried away promising things we may not be able to deliver. Be careful of exaggeration and slow down! There’s no need to convince everyone of the rightness of your view!

Those with planets or points between 19 and 25 degrees of the Air signs (Gemini, Libra or Aquarius) or in the same degrees of the Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Cap) will be most strongly affected by these transits.

  1. I’ve seen how the Saturn Sq. Neptune has affected a close friend, and it hasn’t been good…

    • Hi Es… As someone who has also been personally touched by this transit I feel for your friend! However I think over time they will be glad they are now seeing things more clearly… xx

      • Well it ended our relationship unfortunately, and so far not repaired. I do wish that he is seeing more clearly, just not sure he is yet.
