Hello everyone!
I hope you’re all having a wonderful day. The Sun is now on the 13th degree of Virgo, which means it’s almost halfway through its transit of the Virgin. Wow, that was fast. So, Mercury, the planet of communication and travel, is also in Virgo at the moment on the 14th degree.
This alignment between the Sun and Mercury is called a conjunction, and the degrees of separation vary with astrologers, but personally, I feel like the energy of two planets combined can hold power up until about 8 degrees. With 1 degree separating Mercury and the Sun, I’d say this connection is pretty potent.

Now, because Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods, is the ruling planet of Virgo, he’s home. Whenever a planet is in the sign it rules, its comfortable. I guess you could compare it to your favorite sports team playing at home versus on the road.
Both planets are in Virgo in the 7th House, and the 7th House is the area of the chart where the energies can manifest into the areas of our lives involving partnerships, marriages, contracts, and open enemies. Open enemies means those we’re familiar with, and these people are usually competitors.
Virgo is very technical and precise, so, as we begin to analyze the Sun/Mercury conjunction in this sign in the 7th House, we must focus our attention on the day to day mind. A lot of people don’t know this, but Mercury represents our everyday mind, not the subconscious mind.
There’s a huge boost coming our way involving precise communication. If you’re about to sign a contract of any type, make sure you read over all the details before signing. This could also be a lease for a rental, or any type of written agreement involving the transfer or the borrowing of goods or possessions.
For those couples who are engaged to be married, now is the perfect time to open up a conversation and discuss the details of your special day.

If you’re dating, and things are getting serious between the two of you, now is the time to speak to your partner about what you want and what you expect moving forward.
Virgo is also very analytical, industrious, and detail oriented. There could be lot’s of conversations involving details on how to be better or how to make things better or improve. If you’re on the brink of success or close to achieving personal goals, now is the time to fine tune things.
It’s definitely time to get rid of everything no longer serving a purpose and whatever is holding you back. Take this time to study the board in front of you, and gather the information you need.
Preparation and planning is the key, and when that moment arrives where you need to speak, write, compete, or make that presentation, you’ll not only be ready, but you’ll have the edge over your competition.
A conjunction between Mercury and the Sun in Virgo gives us exactly what we need to regain our edge.
