How the Ending of Mercury Retrograde 2023 Will Affect Your Zodiac Sign

Astrology can help put things in a more meaningful context. There is no such thing as a “casual” retrograde transit, but this most recent Mercury retrograde has felt pretty brazen, to be honest.

Let's take a closer look at all the nuances first before we talk about how the ending of Mercury retrograde will affect your zodiac sign.

When it comes to transportation, deliveries, as well as the dynamic of our immediate surroundings, Mercury retrograde is known for being the cause of miscommunications as well as unexpected glitches.

Back on December 29, 2022, the messenger planet went retrograde in Capricorn and joined forces with Venus.

It's ironic that both of these planets were only three degrees away from the enlightening Pluto, but that just makes this retrograde journey that much more intriguing.

There will have been significant aspects of your life that need reevaluation between the dates of December 29 and January 18, 2023. Capricorn is, after all, a representation of the structure in our lives, so wishy-washy energy is not permitted under this sign's influence.

When Mercury is in Capricorn, it is not as likely for it to be a curious trickster as it is when it is in other signs. Because it is more interested in getting to the heart of the matter, the messenger planet takes a frank and straightforward approach.

There is, however, a silver lining to this, and that is the fact that all of us have been given the opportunity to revisit what aspects of the situation need to be reviewed or rethought.

However, once this retrograde period concludes on January 18, 2023, things will begin to change. Are you curious to know what's in store for you?

 

 

Aries

You are putting the finishing touches on some crucial paperwork, or perhaps you are debating the next step to take in your professional life.

Professional partnerships are emphasized, particularly those that were not established on a rock-solid basis. On the other hand, this has the potential to shed light on those individuals who have abused the power they have been given in some way.

 

 

Taurus

Your perspectives on money, partnerships, and safety are being brought to your attention. Whether you are single or in a relationship, some of you may be looking more closely at a significant partnership, while others may be moving forward with an entrepreneurial endeavor.

Perhaps a greater emphasis should be placed on passports, visas, or travel expenses.

 

 

Gemini

A significant shift is taking place as a result of an evolving romantic and/or professional relationship. Your choice to merge worlds with a significant other will set off a chain reaction of events, but rest assured that it will all work out for the best.

Having said that, conversations concerning finances, shared assets, and shared sources of income are becoming increasingly prominent.

 

 

Cancer

You might be able to start viewing a romantic connection from an entirely new point of view. On the other hand, if you aren't planning to renew your vows, you might think about rekindling a professional partnership.

 

 

Leo

There is no such thing as perfect, and even though you're often admired for your tendency to overachieve, Mercury direct will shed light on everything from the power dynamics in your working space to the toxicity of your daily affairs.

This could center on a habit related to your health that you're having trouble breaking. It is essential to have a clear understanding of which aspects of your daily routine require more self-control.

 

 

Virgo

Your love language is going through its own personal makeover right now. This is especially true when taking into consideration the nature of Venus and Pluto, as both planets were in close proximity to Mercury when the latter stationed retrograde through your fifth solar house.

If you've been overly rigid in the way you approach romantic relationships, this could be another aspect of your life that you're ready to change.

 

 

Libra

Themes pertaining to relationships and things surrounding household matters such as an inheritance, down payments, or the renewal of a lease, might be at the forefront.

Since change is already upon us, many of you had no choice but to consider whether or not you are willing to commit.

 

 

Scorpio

Mercury in direct motion could bring about transformation, clarity, and forward movement in all aspects of your life, from the way go about your life to the connections you have with others.

This is especially true if you have been playing with the idea of purchasing a car or any other new mode of transportation. There is a good chance that significant conversations and contractual agreements will take place.

 

 

Sagittarius

Mercury went into retrograde motion while it was in conjunction with Venus and was only a few degrees away from Pluto. Mercury getting back to business will inspire and challenge you to level up, and commit to a path of self-mastery in this area of life.

 

 

Capricorn

Redesigning a brand is a smart move at any time. In spite of this, you are becoming more assertive, and in the process, you are acknowledging the value that you bring to the world, as Venus and Pluto continue to transit through your sign.

Your perspective on relationships, finances, and values improves dramatically, and you have no problem speaking up when an opportunity presents itself because you are no longer afraid.

 

 

Aquarius

Mercury was conjunct Venus while it was sitting just a few degrees away from Pluto during its retrograde motion, which may have resulted in a greater emphasis being placed on relationship structures, burdens, and resentments from the past

More specifically, when Mercury ends its retrograde phase and goes direct, you will have the wisdom and perseverance to move beyond the inhibitions and subconscious limitations you've set for yourself.

 

 

Pisces

Mercury stationed retrograde through your eleventh house of associations, aspirations, and community affairs, bringing everything from previous relationships to professional opportunities that piqued your interest back to you.

This, on the other hand, shed light on subliminal dynamics and thought processes that could have been stifling your individual expression out there in the world. Mercury direct will make it easier for you to accomplish some goals.
