Magician as Strength
Mercury is moving into Leo and will stay there until August 15th.
Looking at this transit through the eyes of the Tarot, it would be like the Magician is wearing Strength’s clothing. He’s still floating his lemniscates, but now he’s wearing a dress.
Mercury in Leo, or the Magician in Strength’s clothing is a time of energetic and maybe even exhilarating communication.
During this cycle, it’s easy to express your ideas with enthusiasm, and you’re encouraged to do so. Don’t be shy, but try not to walk all over anyone else’s sunshine.
Watch out for ego talk, either from yourself or others. Everyone likes a good storyteller, but boasters are less welcome.
Let yourself be inspired and your desires be clear and focused. When innocent passion is directed by an intelligent will, the possibilities are infinite.

Magician as Charioteer
Mercury moves into Cancer today, and stays there until July 31st.
If we translate this transit into the Tarot, it would be like the Magician is wearing the clothes of the Charioteer. He’s hit the road in some pretty snazzy armour.
Mercury in Cancer, or the Magician wearing the Charioteer’s clothing, is an excellent time to turn your ideas into action.
Inspiration abounds, as does the strength to follow through on your commitments.
Don’t give up if the going gets tough, or communication gets murky. Just recalibrate and try again.
Clearly let others know what it is you need from them, but don’t wait around if they can’t help you.
A determined focus and the intention to move forward will get you to where you need to go.
Charge forward with faith in victory. Success is calling.

Mercury retrogrades back into Gemini today, and stays there until July 3rd.
Looking at this transit through the eyes of the Tarot, it would be like the Magician has taken on the clothes of the Lovers’ Angel. He’s put down his tools and put on some wings.
Mercury in Gemini, or the Magician in the Lovers’ Angel’s clothing, is a time of quick thinking and brilliant communication.
It’s a great opportunity to exchange ideas, share thoughts, open hearts and let yourself think things you might not have ever before.
You don’t have to commit to anything you’re not ready for. But if you do decide on something, it’s a good time to get as educated about it as you can. If ever there was a time to learn something new, this is it.
From the Magician’s ‘I will,’ to the Lovers’, ‘I do’, this is a call to take your ideas to the next step.
What is it that you’d like to do? If you’re really serious, try it now.

Mercury moves into Taurus today and will stay there until May 7h.
Translated into Tarot, this transit would be like the Magician is wearing the Hierophant’s clothing. He’s replaced his light robes for heavy holy vestments.
Mercury in Taurus, or the Magician wearing the Hierophant’s clothing is a time when communication might take a turn towards the spiritual, and the rules of morality.
Tradition, faith, and religious world views are all open for discussion and some conflict might be expected between new ideas and old.
This is a period when it’s not good enough to just say one thing, then jump on over to the next. You might be asked to stop and focus.
Say for real what you believe. And don’t fall for, or become, a trickster guru.
Take this opportunity to review what you have faith in. Look at it from all sides and be willing to play with the ideas.
New life can be pumped into stale old structures, and solid traditions can offer grounding to inspiration.

Magician As Emperor
Mercury moves into Aries today and will be there until April 23rd.
Looking at this transit from a Tarot perspective, it would be like the Magician is wearing the Emperor’s clothes. He’s sitting down and armoured up.
Mercury in Aries, or the Magician in the Emperor’s clothing is a time when speaking your mind might be easier than usual, as long as you don’t force your will onto others while you’re doing it.
It a great opportunity to start solidifying ideas and taking plans to the next step. There’s an energy here that encourages action. And your persuasive powers will be on fire.
With a sharp mind, focused will, and the conviction of your ideals, it might be hard to keep you down.
But don’t go getting bossy, or twisting the facts to suit your purpose. Straight-shooting focus on your own projects and behaviours is the quickest way to build a solid domain.

Mercury moves into Pisces today and will stay there until April 7th.
From a Tarot perspective, this transit would be like the Magician is wearing the Moon’s clothing. He’s all but disappeared except for his face.
Mercury in Pisces, or the Magician in the Moon’s clothing is a time when it’s possible for the unexplainable to be explained, or at least demonstrated more consciously than usual.
Use this time to connect with your unconscious, or those areas in your life you keep most hidden from even yourself. Then journal about it, blog, or talk with people you trust.
Dreams are likely to be a rich source of inspiration, and psychic communication enhanced.
Be wary though of silver-tongued story-tellers trying to convince you to buy something in the dark. It’s best to wait till day, and to look over the goods in the light.

Mercury moves back into Aquarius today, and will stay there until March 17th.
From a Tarot perspective, this transit would be like the Magician is wearing the clothes of the Star. In other words, he’s bare and in the dark.
Mercury in Aquarius, or the Magician dressed as the Star, can be a time of focused rejuvenation and empathetic communication.
It’s safe now to share your feelings, hopes, and sadnesses.
And if doubt and confusion have created a stalemate, or a climate of distrust, you might soon start to feel a more easy flow, and reason for optimism.
Be open with your heart, and unafraid to speak with love. A few kind words can change everything.
