Mercury Trine Uranus Preparing Us for Jupiter into Aries

Hey everyone, this is Adam Elenbaas from Nightlight Astrology, and today we are going to take a look at Mercury's upcoming trine to the planet Uranus. So Mercury is moving through Capricorn right now and is going to be making a trine to Uranus in the sign of Taurus over the weekend, you should be feeling this connection between the two planets building, and you might start noticing it somewhere in your life. So we're gonna give you a sense of what to watch for with this archetypal combination in the next few days and especially over the weekend.

Alright, so let's go to the real-time clock and look at the transit of Mercury making a trine to Uranus. Now Venus will eventually make the trine as well, and we're going to visit that next week. Here you can see the two planets connecting through a trine, and this is Saturday, December 17th. So just a few days away from this one coming into the weekend. But then if we give it a like about a three-degree period of separation, that means that you know we're going to be getting this transit sort of in the air all the way until Monday, at which point, then going into Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday of next week. Venus is going through the trine, so it'll be one after the other.

Remember, it's interesting that both of these planets are appearing as evening stars right now. We talked about that yesterday, how they are sort of carrying the messages of the eclipse into manifestation, you might say, through their appearances as evening stars. What I find so amazing about this is that this one, in particular, is that right as Mercury makes the trine to Uranus almost immediately after, within just a couple of days, and as Venus is making that trine as well. Then Jupiter goes right into Aries, and that Jupiter entering and hitting that zero-degree Aries mark is a very pivotal and sort of explosive turning point.

Everyone's going to experience that a little bit differently. Certainly, everyone will be talking about Jupiter and Aries again next week for a little bit. But for now, the way that I'm looking at Mercury's trying to Uranus is that all of the following themes we're about to talk about, I'm going to give you ten archetypal themes to watch for with Mercury and Uranus over the weekend. But it's that these themes are preceding a bigger and more explosive Turning Point signified by Jupiter entering Aries next week. So when you see Mercury trine Uranus a lot like, for example, one of the, I guess, most textbook basic archetypal. What do you want to see as an explanation or a description of that combination? Sorry, I can't talk all of a sudden would be sudden insights. We're going to that's actually on my list. So a sudden original insight, the light bulb goes off; ding, well, this is not just any short little Mercury Uranus trine.

This is a Mercury Uranus trine with Venus following shortly after both appearing this morning stars carrying the Eclipse energy hitting that trine to Uranus and then ding Jupiter goes into Aries and ignites very pivotal fiery Mars-like change. So that's that is that's pretty exciting shifts the whole mood around this mercury Uranus dynamic, so we're going to take a look at ten themes to watch for Mercury trine Uranus 10 themes to watch for, and these remember, consider that these themes are all preceding a very pivotal moment for Jupiter entering Aries next week remember Jupiter in Aries a cardinal sign.

Cardinal, all the ancient word for it was tropical, which means to turn like the from the word Tropos meaning a turning point or something swiveling, so it's a turning point coming up. It's a cardinal fire sign turning point. It's very springy, youth-like, enthusiastic with a lot of vigor and assertiveness, and very explosive, with Jupiter in Aries intends to make things big and fast. So it's like a rocket taking off next week. And it's preceded by Mercury trine Uranus, and these following ten themes are therefore connected they're; like they're like the smoke billowing around the bottom of the rocket before it takes off; you could say Alright, so the ten themes to watch for.

Number one, original and inventive, you will not find a combination that is more, you know, think outside the box than Mercury and Uranus. Now any kind of aspect between the two will really produce that delineation. But the trine is especially nice because trines are of the nature of Jupiter, which means that they tend to be very supportive, and they tend to bring in positive, beneficial connections and developments. So you're talking about a planet of mind connecting with a planet of invention and revolution. So you have like this very original and inventive quality in the air. The other way that you will notice this combination coming through original inventive, but also sudden. Suddenness of the mind, a sudden word, a sudden, like a phrase or like, suddenly saying something. Suddenly thinking something, suddenly changing your mind. One of the things that I love, like saying that we have in my house with our kids, you can change your mind. You can change your mind if you want to. Because sometimes, you know, our girls will get stuck in like something they're feeling or thinking, and they're just really stuck. And so one of the things we say is you can change your mind if you want to; you can change your mind about how you feel or what you think. So sometimes that works. Most of the time, like you know, not so much. But yeah, so suddenly open-mindedness suddenly, I'm not sure I have to think this way anymore. Suddenly, I'm not sure I'm going to be stuck in that same old thought pattern. Suddenly, I'm open-minded about something; suddenly, I'm considering something I've never considered before.

So the originality and the inventiveness go along with suddenness and open-mindedness. And these are the breakthroughs coming before Jupiter enters Aries. So whatever is happening here, it's like a little, like a little Flashpoint that leads to a really significant shift. Now, again, not everyone is going to feel that equally; a lot of it has to do with what house Jupiter in Aries is hitting in your birth chart or what planets Jupiter in Aries might be aspecting. Or if Uranus is hitting anything in your chart right now, for example, but notice these themes around you.

Number three is problem-solving. It's amazing how, if, you know, it's like clockwork, the things that I feel stuck on that I'm not sure about that I feel like, well, I just don't know what to do about that. I don't have a strategy or a good answer, or a solution to that problem. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, like, you know, lightning striking in the, you know, or like, what's you guys remember? Was it three-to-one contact? Does anyone remember that show? And I think at the beginning of the show, they had the little like little graphic of the apple falling off the tree and hitting Newton in the head. You know, it's like we could have our own little three-to-one contact moment next week. We're ready to learn. We're open to problem-solving. We're getting hit by sudden little insights that help us suddenly have the strategy we have the approach. We see things suddenly that we haven't seen before.

Number four, a very similar breakthrough and understanding, so as an astrologer, one of the reasons that I love astrology, and one of the reasons that I believe that it was called The Science of Hermes, is that if you spend enough time with astrology like day in and day out, you are going to find that the way that you have been thinking about a planet or sine or a combination of planets if you keep thinking about them, and you're just, it's like all of the archetypes become a part of this meditation in your life. And then after a while, it's like, I just don't, you know, you'll reach points where you're like, I had a way of talking and thinking about, say, the third house for a long time. And now I'm stuck, and I feel like that's not quite it. It's not quite it, and this is unique to astrology. I swear to God, this is so thoroughly astrological; maybe it's it happens in other fields too. But, um, this is a uniquely astrological thing that happens.

If you study astrology, you'll be like, I have a way of thinking or talking about this planet, or that whatever, certain metaphors, they use certain images, and then all of a sudden they feel dead. You're like, and this is one of the reasons why although I hate horoscopes like although I don't like, I don't love making them because I like this kind of content better. The thing about making horoscopes is that you get so sick and tired of saying the same old things that by necessity, because you get so tired of the sound of your own voice saying the same old shit that you know, you have to finally come up with something new. And the same thing goes for readings; I read charts for people every single day for 13 going on 13 years, almost 13,000 charts, so my God, you have to find new ways of saying things.

It is like clockwork when Uranus and Mercury get together, boom, suddenly, this brand new way of thinking about a planet or a sign or a house or a combination of things appears, and then I'm working with that, you know, for a while until things get stagnant again, I promise you this is a thing with Mercury and Uranus you will see this you'll get just get sudden breakthroughs and insights and something you study or musicians, they hit plateaus, and then suddenly they break through weightlifters they can't lift any more than a certain weight and then all of a sudden one day they have a breakthrough. So breakthrough moments are a big part of Mercury Uranus.

Number five is erratic thinking, talking, and nervousness. Well, I mean, it's kind of like Mercury, Uranus in a trine at the very least, would be like being in a very exciting, you know, coffee house, it's very stimulating, there are lots of ideas, the ideas are almost always promising more than they can deliver. You know, it's like it, and there's kind of like a nervous, restless live wire, like as you know, suddenly, it feels like you've, you know, you've taken a line of coke in a bathroom somewhere, but you know, you haven't, and so what's going on, it's very Mercury, Uranus, you can just suddenly feel like you're just a little wired. And like you got plugged into an electrical outlet. And, you know, your hair is going to be looking like it's standing up, like mine. Hopefully, it looks a lot better. But anyway, erratic thinking, talking nervousness, which can be really fun.

To be honest, Mercury Uranus transits can result in anxiety attacks. Now, with the trine and earth signs, I think you're going to feel a little bit more grounded with this one. And I wouldn't be so nervous about feeling unstable or ungrounded. But, you know, this Mercury, Uranus will literally coincide with, like, a blown transformer, or a like a live wire being down somewhere, and they have to like, seal it off and get, you know, repair it. So, you know, watch for the kind of erratic Live Wire quality and just, you know, I mean, whether it's the grounding meditation that you do, or it's a little sage or something, you know, whatever you got to do to create a little bit of more containment, if you're starting to feel that, you know, just something to watch for.

Number six would be intellectual arrogance. Now, I've seen, you know, there are gradations of this, this could just be over excitement. Like I said, big ideas don't often deliver as much as they promise. You know. I love like, Okay, here's like I would, here's how I would give it the intellectual arrogance like a pass your first cup of coffee in the morning or tea if you have any caffeine within that first hour or two, isn't it amazing how great all of your ideas feel? It looks like everything sounds so good. I think I'm just going to, you know, I think I'm going to clean out my whole garage. You know, right now, before I go to work. So, if you extend that, and you imagine you're on that same high, but now you're talking about politics or religion, or your aunt, Betty's taste in, you know, clothing or something like your ideas can become overly confident and your intellect the worst that could become like it could be a really obnoxious like, super like all of my ideas are the best ideas in the world. Everything I think is right; I have no need to learn anything new, you know. So, hubris, mentally, intellectually, or verbally, is something to watch for but also just like Don't know. Have some mercy and compassion for like excitability and exaggeration because sometimes it's just fun.

Number seven nervous stimulation. This would be the need to do things that are very stimulating, whether that's like going for a run or suddenly or like I've got the urge to buy a. What are those things called peloton? Like, I'm gonna go buy a peloton right now. So you could do something like that you could suddenly find that you are a fidget toy person. I know, like, some people will have something to fidget with at their desks.

This is the kind of day where you might find that, like, you know, the, you're looking for a fidget toy existentially. Just make sure that it's not a person. It can be taken in so many wrong ways. Just make sure it's not a person that you're sitting there and, you know, jabbing and poking and annoying with constant chatter all day. Oh my God, see me, I'm, like, possessed by the very energy that I'm talking about. Alright, anyway, so nervous stimulation, the need for it, or the potential for it to be ungrounded.

Number eight is technological breakthroughs. So with technological breakthroughs, this could be something really simple, like realizing that you need a printer. Oh, a printer is going to make my life so much easier. A scanner, I don't know, whatever. Or it could be that you, if you're someone like me, and I remember, there was a Mercury Uranus transit when I got new equipment for this office for filming and doing my, you know, my content creation was like Oh, breakthrough in technology, a new technology that's a little bit better than the old stuff I was using. So sometimes, just like upgrading your technological, it could be something also like, oh my god, I'm getting a car that has some fancy, you know, computer system in it or, or maybe there's just some new way of doing business or making your work a little bit easier. A new approach or technique, or strategy, almost like an inventive way of doing something to save time. So, technological breakthroughs would be another one.

And the number nine athletic achievements are breakthroughs. Now, interestingly, Mercury was associated with sports. Hermes was associated with like wrestling and court games, the sport of debate, as well as anything now that goes back and forth, back and forth. Mercury has an association with games. So, for example, anything that would involve some kind of quirky or fun or eccentric or surprising or unexpected gameplay, like I could, I could see myself in the next couple of days getting really creative and like something creative and weird will happen. And we'll play some fun games, the girls and me, you know, or there could be something where you see like an athletic milestone or achievement, you know, it'll be like some really remarkable thing. For example, as a Minnesota Vikings fan, this comes through on Saturday when Justin Jefferson could potentially break the single-season receiving record set by Randy Moss on the Vikings. That would not surprise me on a day when Mercury is trying to Uranus. So any kind of breakthrough achievement, especially in any kind of gaming and like like fun or setting a record for the highest points ever scored on Yahtzee. Do you know what I mean?

Finally, number ten, overall, the urge, mentally verbally in your nervous system, the need and urge for freedom, independence, freedom, free-spiritedness, free-thinking, the need to emancipate yourself from structures of thought that are limiting or oppressive, like that, it'll be a very strong impulse and remember, any and all of these things which might be you know, more fleeting, in any other transit are very powerful because what comes after next week, right after this energy comes through, remember Venus will then trine Uranus creating some of the same things, but in a more Venusian way, and then boom, it's Uranus. It's Jupiter into Aries. So watch for these things to be part of a pivot that's happening next week. That's pretty dramatic. All right, that's what I've got for today, a little bit shorter. It's my daughter's birthday today. So this video is a little bit shorter because I want to make sure I have lots of time to get downstairs and celebrate while she's just getting back from school right now. So anyway, yeah.

The last thing, don't forget we are still we still need 1000 people if you can believe that in a little less than three weeks now to pitch in and country. Have you to our Kickstarter campaign? I believe we can do it. I really do. I think we can still get there. Choose a reward when you donate; you can find the link in the description or comments of this video. And literally, a $5 donation helps us reach our goal as much as a $100 donation does. Of course, I think we have really great rewards that you can choose from. But literally just the appreciation of the audience and people just saying, hey, you know what, five bucks is not that much to pay for a channel that I love year round. So if you have that in you, if not, we appreciate prayers and good wishes, too, that we might reach some of our goals this year so we can build and develop some of the things we want to do and keep supporting this channel. Or that's what I've got. I hope you guys have a great day, and we will see you again tomorrow. Take it easy, everyone. Bye.
