What’s a Mercury Cazimi in Astrology?
On September 6, 2023, Mercury will Cazimi with the Sun, signifying a pivotal moment in its retrograde journey in Virgo, which began on August 23, 2023, and concludes on September 15, 2023.
While planets close to the Sun risk being "combust" or overwhelmed by its intensity, those in cazimi, or "in the heart" of the Sun, experience amplified energy, protected from the fiery force.
During this period, Mercury transitions from the introspective evening star to the innovative morning star. (catching up to Venus Morning Star) This shift from reflection to creativity marks a new life phase.
This Mercury Cazimi in Virgo offers clarity in a time of confusion. As Mercury evolves from evening to morning star, it brings answers and a renewed voice.
Embrace this transformative phase, realigning your inner and outer selves, and prepare for the next chapter as Mercury approaches its direct station on September 15.
This is the perfect time to intentionally start a cherished project, goal, dream or wish.
Take some time to honor the Mercury Czimi. Below are some ideas on how.
Journaling: Capture your thoughts and aspirations, reflecting on your personal journey as Mercury transitions. What has Mercury been revealing to you in your intuitive process. See where you have Virgo in your chart and what house. This will give you a focus on what areas you can use this energy to intensify your desires.
Meditation: In a serene space, focus on the throat chakra and the color blue, visualizing Mercury's energy powerful and direct. Set intentions for clear and compassionate communication. Speak them out loud during the meditation. The throat chakra is how we manifest. By speaking out!
Knowledge Exchange: Dive into learning new topics or share your expertise with others, embracing Mercury's essence of intellect and communication. This is more of a planetary action vs. personal. How far and wide do you want to be in this world?
Choose ONE project would you like to start at this moment, and then watch over the next few months how it plays out till the next Cazimi during Capricorn season, when Mercury will be retrograde, again.
