Late this coming Friday morning ET, Mercury turns direct, which should relieve many people because Mercury retrograde periods tend to be problematic. Clients and subscribers often complain about the havoc Mercury Retrograde plays with their phones, computers, data, and everyday affairs.
Mercury turning direct is also important because significant shifts and changes usually happen in our plans, decisions, negotiations, projects, and relationships around the days Mercury goes retrograde and direct.
Also, the choices you made and the plans you started when Mercury was retrograde over the past three weeks are now seen differently as unforeseen assumptions and mistakes “come to light” because Mercury, the planet ruling thinking and communication, is changing direction relative to the Earth’s movement.
This doesn’t mean everything will now be fine and dandy for you and the world with Mercury Direct. Nor does this mean everything was supposed to go wrong the past three weeks when Mercury was retrograde. The past three weeks may have been outstanding for you, with many benefits.
Current Sun Sign Factors
These sun-sign assessments are only “the tip of the iceberg” for what you should know. Beyond your Sun sign degree, many other factors matter that these newsletters cannot cover, such as transits to your Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Ascendant, and Midheaven degrees.
However, knowing the current transits to your Sun’s position can be invaluable because the positions of the slower-moving planets (Jupiter in Leo, Saturn in Aries, Uranus in Gemini, Neptune in Aries, and Pluto in Aquarius) can create significant trends and events in your life.
To use this information correctly, you need your Sun sign degree, which is not your date of birth. If you need your Sun sign degree, please call me. I will calculate it for you.

Guidelines for Using This Information
These newsletters are not your typical sun sign column. They offer more information and guidance, but it can be hard to sort through everything with so many factors at play, even for astrology students. Therefore, I keep everything as clear and straightforward as possible.
The most critical factor in right timing is what is happening in your horoscope. When negative aspects dominate your horoscope, your chances of success with right timing diminish, no matter how favorable the planetary aspects are in the sky. These newsletters cannot cover everything occurring in your horoscope. However, applying the information in these newsletters with common sense helps you make more informed decisions and act more effectively.
The basic premise with right timing is that having the “stars” on your side helps. Starting a marriage, trip, surgery, business, real estate deal, or major purchase at an inopportune time reduces your success, no matter how good your intentions are or how hard you try. The better the timing, the higher your chances of success. Even an hour can make a significant difference in important decisions and events.
The Moon enters each zodiac sign about every 28 days and remains in each sign for about two and a half days. When the Moon is in your sun sign, matters will likely come together more for you in the short term unless significant aspects are currently challenging your horoscope.
The traits and qualities I assign to the signs in these newsletters describe the signs’ functions and meanings rather than describing your personality. However, the descriptions may be entirely accurate for you. To understand a person’s personality and character from an astrological perspective, you must consider dozens of factors besides one’s sun sign.
Contact me to know what’s going on in your horoscope and to make better decisions at better times. We will schedule a private consultation at my office or on the phone so you can know more about your future and better understand the issues and opportunities in your life, as well as your relationships, job, career, education, finances, children, parents, travel, health, location, retirement, karma, and purpose in life.
