Mercury, the planet of speech and communication, is in Purvashadha, the nakshatra within the sign of Sagittarius from January 13th to 22nd 2025.
Purvashadha translates to The Unconquered and is associated with invincibility, while its Shakti, or unique power, for ‘Invigoration’ sees a new approach to your thought, speech and writing. The presiding devata of this asterism, Lord Jal, is the embodiment of water, and you can ‘water’ your plans, while Purvashadaha’s power for reinvigoration sees new shoots coming up when you focus on the right areas. This transit begins with the Full Moon on January 13th, which may inspire you to write and reach out to people during the new year period.
Mercury in mutual aspect with the Moon, however, also sees a trade-off between thought and emotion, and expressing yourself with the right words may be difficult. You are subject to changing moods, where at one point you are rational and detached, and another introspective and sentimental. You can attempt to reconcile these opposites by making a statement of your beliefs and gathering new information that broadens your understanding of the world.
Purvashadha brings out Mercury’s debating skills, so you may get into an argument or discussion, and share big ideas with your close circle. This is an excellent time for campaigning, writing letters, and speaking up in support of a cherished cause. This transit also carries a practical streak where you can win in work and business, do deals, and be a good salesperson.
