Mercury in Virgo:

Pay Attention to the Details

That annoying inner voice of yours is about to come into its own. When Mercury enters Virgo from July 25th, 2024 until August 15th, 2024 and then again on September 9th, 2024 until September 26th, 2024. 

This is an extra long Mercury cycle due to Mercury turning retrograde on August 5th, 2024 until August 28th, 2024. It turns retrograde at 4 degrees Virgo and direct at 21 degree Leo.

Your relentless self-criticism finally gets a constructive, positive outlet – and solutions are on the way, thanks to the astrology of the moment.

In astrology, Virgo energy is infamously critical – some would say harsh – but always fair.

Those born with lots of Virgo energy in their birth charts turn their judgment on themselves far more frequently than on others and don’t expect anyone else to do something they wouldn’t do themselves. 

All of us can be guilty of giving ourselves a hard time.

When Mercury arrives in Virgo, there’s a collective sigh of relief, because all that critical energy can finally be channeled positively.

Mercury is only in Virgo for a short time but during this period, the planetary energy ensures that you can make huge progress in finding practical solutions and creating constructive change.

When Mercury transits Virgo, astrology and your horoscope show that there’s an emphasis on detail and effectiveness, as well as efficiency, cleanliness, and streamlining.

It becomes easier to find simple, non-convoluted solutions – answers which were probably staring you in the face, but that you couldn’t see because you’d over-complicated everything.

Astrological Virgo energy is highly analytical, so there’s also a sense of refinement of ideas, testing, re-testing and incremental changes until something actually works. 

For some zodiac signs, however, it’s hard to shake off the worry that Virgo energy can sometimes bring.

There is a downside to the Mercury in Virgo transit, and that can mean an obsession with the worst-case scenario, and a constant fretting over whether something is perfect or not.

To move past that worrying, it’s helpful to have plenty of optimistic Fire signs in play, or to have a naturally upbeat nature – those of us without may have to haul ourselves out of the doldrums occasionally while Mercury transits Virgo.

Mercury Transit Virgo for Each of the Sun Signs

The Mercury in Virgo transit will affect each Sun sign slightly differently, depending on which solar house is emphasized during the transit, and how the energies of Virgo and the other sign mesh together in a horoscope.

Mercury in Virgo for an Aries (Aries dates: March 20 – April 19)

Get your time management sorted out! This Mercury transit is perfect for improving your personal organization, Aries, creating extra time in your schedules and getting rid of pointless paperwork which is weighing you down. Use apps and technology – very Aries - to streamline your systems, so that you can run your life instead of allowing your life to run you.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Taurus (Taurus dates: April 20 – May 20)

When Mercury is in Virgo, your creative skills can shine, Taurus. It’s an especially good time to blend detail and creativity, perhaps in highly complex drawings or intricate crafting. Complex doodles, while you’re thinking, could reveal symbolism or patterns from your subconscious – take the time to look at what you’re producing, Taurus, and see if it can help you in any way.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Gemini (Gemini dates: May 21 – June 20)

Gemini, your challenge during the Mercury in Virgo transit is to break free of old habits. Just because you’ve always done something one way doesn’t mean it’s the only way. Try it from a different angle and you may just experience a breakthrough. Don’t be afraid to take a chance, Gemini – a carefully calculated one, of course, since this is Virgo energy, with its emphasis on the small stuff, but a chance, nonetheless. 

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Cancer (Cancer dates: June 21 – July 21)

During Mercury in Virgo, it’s all about what you say and how you say it, Cancer. If you’re facing opposition or others won’t back you, a simple adjustment in your tone or style of communication might change everything. Think about the impression you’re sending out, Cancer. Put yourself in someone else’s shoes and see yourself as others do. Then you can fix whatever obstacles are holding you back.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Leo (Leo dates: July 22 – August 21)

Mercury in Virgo can help you to rationalize your spending habits and to cut down on emotional shopping. This is a good time to look carefully at your finances, Leo, and to shop around for a better deal too, if necessary. Get expert advice if you need it, but your own Leo common sense is a great place to start when looking at how to cut back on your outgoing expenses and increase your income.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Virgo (Virgo dates: August 22 – September 21)

Mercury transiting your own sign is always a good feeling for you, Virgo, since Mercury is your ruling planet. Your communication abilities are outstanding for this couple of weeks, so write letters, articles, essays, job applications, love letters and anything else which needs to be said with impact and style. You’re more confident in showing off your intelligence during this transit, so let your abilities shine.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Libra (Libra dates: September 22 – October 22)

Be careful with social media during this transit, Libra. What you think you’re saying and how others may interpret it are two very different things. Be careful with secrets too, because Mercury in Virgo energy exposes the finest details. In other words, think before you post or tweet, and ideally – don’t! On the plus side, this transit is excellent for dreamwork, journaling and self-understanding. Use it to figure out what really makes you happy deep inside.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Scorpio (Scorpio dates: October 23 – November 21)

Think strategically, Scorpio. If you want to get to point B, you need to have a plan, even if that plan involves going via point C. This is a good couple of weeks for mapping out your route and for making step-by-step, one-by-one mini objectives to keep you on track. Replace your normal wing-and-a-prayer approach with something carefully crafted and you might just see some real progress.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Sagittarius (Sagittarius dates: November 22 – December 20)

 What you say can get you a lot of attention during this transit, so make sure you’re saying things you want to be remembered! If your words are careless or thoughtless, they may come back to haunt you. Speak with truth and honesty, Sagittarius, and speak to the highest principles you know, and then you can be sure that others will back you. When Mercury is in Virgo, your power lies in your ability to persuade.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Capricorn (Capricorn dates: December 21 – January 18)

Expect a bumpy ride with your religion or faith during this couple of weeks, Capricorn. Virgo’s analytical energy does not sit well with something as intangible and ethereal as a belief – and if you over-analyze your beliefs, you’ll start second-guessing your own identity. If you can, apply Virgo’s critical energy towards something more concrete in your life, Capricorn, and leave your esoteric beliefs alone.

 

Mercury in Virgo for an Aquarius (Aquarius dates: January 19 – February 17)

This uber-rational Mercury transit helps you to calm down emotions in difficult situation. In a power struggle, an illicit affair, an interpersonal row or a heated time at work, take a step back and think through your answers carefully. There is no need to act on the spur of the moment, Aquarius. Use Virgo’s careful, thoughtful and precise power to lower the temperature in the situation, and to gain breathing space.

 

Mercury in Virgo for a Pisces (Pisces dates: February 18 – March 19)

This Mercury transit highlights your kindness and your compassion, Pisces, enabling you to speak up for the vulnerable and the unloved. It’s a fabulous time to get involved in marketing or promotion for a charity. This transit also boosts communication within your closest relationship, so don’t hesitate to tell your loved ones exactly how much they mean to you.

    I just want you to know I absolutely love you. I rely on you. If I get rich, I'm taking you with me. I'm going to have you with me every day of my life just because it's kind of weird. It's kind of scary how dead on you are all the time. But you want to know what? I love you. Thank you for finding your way in my life. I love all your emails and everything. And sometimes it scares me and I just try to be like, okay, let me just steer away because I always feel like I'm missing out on something, being occupied by stuff I'd rather not be occupied by, entertaining people and stuff that shouldn't be, getting people blocking my blessings, I guess you'd say. But besides that, I just need to take a leap of faith and just go all in it because I know who I am, what I want and I can't get it when I'm sitting in the house not doing anything because I'm all depressed because of the people that I have, people that suck my energy away. I don't know how to explain it. Just people that front row cheer me on to fail. But seriously, I love you. Thank you. I appreciate you. Bye.

    Hey, Kelly. I am ready. If I had known I was going to be recording this, I would have worn some makeup. So anyway. Oh, that's my vanity speaking. Sorry about that. But anyway, I do love listening to you and I always acquire a lot of knowledge. I've been studying astrology since I was about eleven years old. I love it and I can't get enough of it. But I just wanted to let you know that I loved that quote from Eleanor Roosevelt that you put on there. It's so true. We need to live life while we have it and make the best of it. And astrology will help us lead the way. I'm assured of that. Anything we can learn when it comes to astrology will only help us to live a better life. And by your volunteering all your information, I thank you a million times over. You are such an asset. And I know the stars and the planets are shining down upon you and I listen to you all the time on YouTube and your Zoom channel and have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I hope your throat feels better. Kelli keeps drinking some hot. Thank you for everything you do. My name is Judith and I'm from Greensboro, North Carolina, and I'm a cancer and I love all of what you have to say. Thank you. Bye.

    Hello there. This is era. I'm answering your video and I'm a little intimidated because I'm on it. So let's just use this one for you and me before I try to check with the audience. But, yeah, when I got your email and read everything, you were speaking right to my heart. Right to my heart. My spirit told me that this was a good thing. And I'm a crab cancer. We don't just trust anybody. It takes a long time for people to get our trust. But you're the real deal. You are the real deal. And that's why I had to write you and let you know that the only reason why I wasn't getting it today was because of my circumstances. I'm looking forward to my new life. I got the world card today, and that means I'm getting ready to step into a new life that I deserve. I must say, you're awesome. I haven't had a chance to see everything you've done, but I've seen enough to know that it's going to go straight to my heart. I know that, like I said, let's not share this with the world yet. This is just for you. But I promise, when I get her, I'll be glad to do that for someone else who may be in my place that is looking for something besides fluff. They're looking for something real. And I do believe that's what you have, my dear. Something real.

    It. Hey, Kelli. It is Brandon Gonzalez, the one that you've been doing all this amazing stuff for. And wow, am I just surprised. Like the whole angel number twelve thing came at the perfect time. It was matter of fact 1212 when I read it. Please keep doing what you're doing. It is helping me in my life in many different ways. Spiritually, I'm of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, otherwise known as Mormonism. Our god is directing me. You're right. You're completely right. I know my worth. I know where I'm supposed to be headed, what I'm supposed to be doing, just by feeling my own heart and my own decisions that he's giving me. He's giving me. How do I explain this? Perfect situations to just choose from. And if I'm choosing the right, then I get many blessings from you guys. Numerologists, moon readings, all of that, and it all comes together and ties into my life perfectly. So I'm so appreciative of what you guys are doing and it is changing me for the better and I'm excited to see what's to come. And that's really all I've got to say. Thank you, Kevin, and I appreciate everything you're doing. Please keep doing it. I love this and I do not plan on stopping.
