“Mental” Mercury conjuncts “Energy Planet” Mars on November 20, 2010 (1:53 pm EDT) at 17 degrees of Sagittarius. In general, whenever Mercury and Mars are together, regardless of zodiacal sign, we have much more “mental energy” at our disposal. Our “thought processes” are revved up and our communications more intense.

In fiery, freedom-loving Sagittarius, Mercury’s communication style is enthusiastic, optimistic, and typically more “direct and blunt.” There can also be more of an “extremism” in viewpoints. Plus, a tendency towards “long-windedness”  and “exaggeration” due to the expansive nature of this sign which is ruled by the planet Jupiter which tends to “oversize” everything, making all matters “larger than life.” Philosophical Jupiter’s influence, too, makes Mercury focus more on the “bigger picture” versus “laborious details” which restless Mercury in Sag has no patience for.

With Aggressive, Self-Centered Mars also “firing up” Mercury here, we have a notable tendency to get “carried away” with our ideas and thinking, and more opinionated, argumentative, and defensive (Mars). If we tend to be “manic” by nature, we become “hyper-manic” (Mars) now. We also are ready to proselytize and convert “everyone and anyone” to our way of thinking. Mercury conjunct Mars in in Sagittarius is intensely zealous.
