In summary: Mercury pauses at the precipice of air, receiving information to consider, then returns to review her commitment to her physical self, kissing the Sun as they cross paths in opposite directions. Jupiter supports Mercury’s desire to initiate, to act on what she finds while turning her earth. Pluto lovingly reminds Mercury of the necessary transformation to come, what she must leave behind, the legacy of today’s decisions, and the work that has brought her this far. Feeling fortified, Mercury consults Saturn for resolution, to ensure there are no blind spots in her new plan, and to feel ready for what the next phase requires of her. Neptune provides a little sugar to help the medicine go down, and a salve for any stingers on the journey ahead. Pluto returns to test Mercury’s new process – one final adjustment period before Jupiter thrusts Mercury back into the fast lane, the big leagues, and catching up to her Sun.
Synastry is the loving review of two or more natal charts in combination. Need that itch scratched but still working on your astrology basics? The Pattern will allow you to run your chart against friends, family, lovers and even celebrities!
If you're attempting synastry on the fly, WitchFoot recommends analyzing the two mercury placements for a substantive starting point!
