Mercury, planet of intelligence and communication, is in Uttara Ashada from January 30th to February 7th 2024, the nakshatra across the zodiacal signs of Sagittarius and Capricorn.
Uttara’s auspicious energy emphasises diplomacy and moderation, and any issues which arise have the potential to be talked-around. This asterism’s Shakti, for ‘Uncontested Victory’, favours careful negotiation, which sees a good outcome arriving without apparent planning or outside influence.
This quality is the hallmark of correct thinking, and any situation where you run into opposition or difficulty is a sign something isn’t right. A positive result should be easy, and you learn through winning with Uttara. Though your mentality is lively and curious, you don’t mind a patient build-up when there’s the prospect of ultimate success.
Uttara Ashada is of the Kshatriya, or warrior caste, and you can channel your mental powers into a war of words, where letters, articles and debate give your campaign energy and publicity. You have innate wisdom, can make a real difference to an important issue, and also offer advice to a friend in need.
Initiating new plans and desires is another feature of Uttara Ashada, and its symbol, the elephant’s Tusk, is linked symbolically to Ganesha, where invoking the Remover of Obstacles sees any work, plan or journey start with a smooth victory.
From February 1st to 5th, however, Mercury is trapped between tough Mars and Saturn, where your requests or proposals may be met with misunderstanding and resistance. You can either argue your case harder, or sidestep this time window and quietly strengthen your ideas, before enjoying Uttara’s trademark success after it has passed.
