Mercury retrograde in Anuradha
26th November - 16th december 2024
If you’re looking for a chance to slow down and process 2024 before she’s over, the stars are dropping one last Mercury retrograde into our agendas which begins on November 26th. The secret to harnessing mercury retrograde for your wellbeing lies in understanding the themes relevant to the rashi (zodiac sign) in question. This month, Mercury retrogrades back through Scorpio, the sign of depth, truth, intimacy and re-birth. December is an excellent month for healing and regenerating the life area ruled by Scorpio in your personal vedic chart.
Mercury begins to spin retrograde in the nakshatra of Jyestha, so we might feel particularly driven in the coming weeks to pursue career success, despite the holiday season creeping in. This is because Jyestha is a nakshatra of power, authority and acquisition. So if you feel especially determined to focus your end of year efforts on material success, recognise this might be due to Jyestha’s rajasic tendencies. December will be a busy time for all as mercury retrograde pushes us to evaluate the path we have carved out in pursuit of our professional dreams..
From the 9th - 24th December, Mercury turns our focus back to partnerships as the messenger planet re-enters Anuradha nakshatra. Make time for the important figures in your life and prioritise open communication. You may have to cover the same ground several times before you find clarity with another important figure. Jupiter in Taurus will be opposing this Mercury retrograde, so you will thrive the more you can approach December with an open mind, ready to learn from others and receive new wisdom that can enlighten your path. With Mercury retrograde travelling opposite the planet of wisdom, known as Guru in sanskrit, the next few weeks until December 16th could bring new people into your orbit and sudden opportunities for expansion.
You will thrive in December if you ensure you honour Scorpionic themes of behaviour. These nakshatras know that great external success is only possible if internally we have released the past, and done enough inner work to integrate the new gifts life wants to offer us. This final mercury retrograde wants you to leave 2024 with your mind connected to a peaceful heart.
