MERCURY IN LEO–DIVINE INSPIRATION AND WRITING

 

EYE IN THE SKY: MERCURY IN LEO

Mercury transits into Leo on August 1st  and will stay here until August 20th.   For the most part, the transit is mostly positive as Mercury’s combustion ended on July 29th.   The transit is mostly uafflicted accept for a trine from Rahu into August 14-15th which can increase technological problems around piracy or computer viruses.

If you were born with Mercury in Leo, you are bright-minded, have good memory, are inspiring speaker or writer, are confident and are a good planner and organizer, may be well-know in business, are ambitious, travel frequently and have a keen intellect.

The first part of the transit is through August 8th in  Magha (Leo 0-13.20)  which is know as Regulus by Western astrology and is owned by Ketu.  Mercury in Ketu’s constellation can create a strong vision but the ambitious nature of Leo/Magha may force them to cut corners or rush through projects and be a bit impulsive. Slow down and do not be too hasty with big projects.  Ketu is mystical and intuitive so be sure to seek divine guidance within  to get the answers to difficult decisions.  It can also create some mental confusion at times and because Ketu is afflicted by Saturn in transit with the 10th house aspect from Saturn to Ketu in  Libra and this can  i create miscommunication problems and getting stuff mixed up.  Be patient with it and do the cobra pose and the warrior pose to focus the mind better.

The second part of the transit is in the constellation of Purva Phalguni (Leo 13.20-26.40) August 8-18th.  This will connect Mercury to Venus which is good for creative writing and song-writing.   and this will be a nice symbiotic relationship supporting artistic writing and sweet speech. Purva Phalguniis a highly sexually charged constellation and Mercury, the prince, likes to play in the bed in this constellation symbolized by the front legs of a bed.  This constellation is considered fierce and is not considered a good time for major new events unless your are scheming. It does support construction but stay on top of accidents and health.   .

Mercury transits from the moon or the ascendant are best in the 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 11th positions so if you have your moon or rising sign of  Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces, Taurus or Cancer, this transit will be beneficial for you.  For Gemini and Virgo rising, ruled by Mercury it is more difficult with Geminis particularly needing to curb their sexual dalliances and Virgos being inclined to foreign travel, meditation retreats or deep inward and psychological introspection.

Mercury governs plant life and gardening so take time to enjoy the outdoors and the beauty and greenery of nature, Mercury’s color.   Good month for writing poetry or songs or creative writing, for a meditation retreat during the retrograde period.

What our colleagues are saying:

Barry Rosen’s brilliant text  profoundly addresses the essential goals of both Vedic Astrology and Transpersonal Psychology. (1) How to make the unconscious more conscious. (2) How to assist in healing suffering and (3) To help us awaken from the cosmic dream into the ultimate reality. Barry’s poetic writings explores the psychological analysis through jyotish as well as the philosophical tenants of liberation. Well done my friend!!

Barry Rosen has made a valuable contribution to understanding how houses act in hidden ways in a Vedic chart, and his explanations and process are logical and easy to follow. This ranks with the Uttara Kalamrita as a book which reveals the incredible density of meaning contained in the houses in a Vedic chart, which are the most important part of chart interpretation from my perspective. Excellent work-

Dr. Gary Gomes, President Emeritus, CVA.

The deepest purpose of astrology should allow us to see the Maya or illusion that runs through our mind and blocks us from seeing our own Divinity. Astrology should reveal our hidden patterns and not just affirm what we know about our self already. It is our hidden patterns and blind spots which get us into the most trouble and cause us the most suffering. It takes courage to look at them, bring them into the light and transforms them but that is why we are on the planet. It is much like Bill Murray in Ground Hog Day (1993). How many times do we have to repeat our lives and relive our pain or do we realize our flaws and actively work on them and transform ourselves into a more conscious and active and loving and compassionate person. In this brilliant collection of essays divided into 4 sections, Psychological and Emotional and Spiritual Dimensions of Vedic Astrology, Secrets of the Houses, Spiritual Astrology and Advanced Techniques in Vedic Astrology, Barry reveals material beyond the ordinary in unveiling our True Self beyond the illusion.    The great spiritual teacher Yogananda was fond of saying that  most of what we call the spiritual battle is really a psychological battle and once that battle is won, the spiritual battle is a short one.  This book aims to support you in deep spiritual growth with profound psychological insight.

Barry’s spiritual and psychological approach to astrology seeks to cut the puppet strings of the planets that impact our emotions and psychology and bind us to self-blame, doubt and fear, and anger.  This useful guide will help you navigate your life.
