Mercury, the planet of intelligence and communication, is in Uttarashadha from January 22nd to 30th 2025, the nakshatra that sits across the zodiacal signs of Sagittarius and Capricorn.
Uttara’s auspicious energy emphasises diplomacy and moderation, and any issues that arise have the potential for serious discussion. This asterism’s Shakti, for ‘Uncontested Victory’, favours careful negotiation, which sees a good outcome arriving without apparent planning or outside influence. This quality shows you are on the right path, and a positive result should be easy, even though you know how much previous effort has taken you to this point. Mercury exchanging aspects with fiery Mars up to January 24th gives you an extra competitive mentality, where you demand to be first to an idea or solution.
A war of words may follow, where you and a rival both have ego invested in your thinking. Uttara Ashadha is also of the Kshatriya, or warrior caste, and you can channel your mental powers into letters, articles and debate, which gives any campaign energy and publicity. You also have the innate wisdom to make a real difference to an important issue and can offer good advice to a friend in need. In the Capricorn portion of Uttara from January 24th to 30th, Mercury receives Jupiter’s expansive influence, and you get the support of a mentor or educator.
An answer may appear to be a long-standing problem at this point, or a moment of inspiration gives you a new take on an old theory. Initiating plans and desires is another feature of Uttarashadha, and its symbol, the elephant’s Tusk, is linked symbolically to Ganesha, where invoking the Remover of Obstacles gets a plan or journey off to a winning start.
