Rapid Transitions -- Mercury, a Comet and a Man

Rapid Transitions -- Mercury, a Comet and a Man
The astrology of the next few days correlates with the rapid transitions that define the essence of Mercury, a comet named ISON, and a man who could have been 71 years young tomorrow — James Marshall (Jimi) Hendrix. At 3:35 am EST tomorrow, Mercury moves past the Scorpio degree where it appeared to reverse its motion on October 21. That’s another way of saying that Mercury will have emerged from the shadow (or “echo”) of its final retrograde this year.
At the same time Mercury enters new Scorpio waters, comet ISON will be near its closest approach to the Sun, which will take place Thursday. You could say both Mercury and ISON are moving on, but in very different ways.
Mercury will continue to move around the Sun and through the zodiac; of that we can be reasonably sure. That is not to say, however, that Mercury will merely be going through the same motions you may have become accustomed to.
After taking nearly two months tracing and re-tracing the first two thirds of Scorpio, Mercury will zip through the final third in about a week, entering Sagittarius on Dec. 4. That’s a big transition, and it’s probable that there will be some correspondingly swift movement in your life as regards the nature of Mercury and its correlation to how you think, communicate, or receive and process information. So long as it does not mean that you will be driving too fast, it’s probably all to the good — your good.
