Delays in Communication
There is usually a positive side to any adverse aspect in astrology and you can always find ways to use any aspect constructively. For example, a Mercury-Saturn aspect makes one very cautious but usually increases focus and concentration. Leonardo da Vinci and Einstein were both born with Mercury in Aries aspected to Saturn.
In this article, we will show you how to offset adverse transits from Saturn to your natal Mercury (conj., square, opposition, etc.). We have listed your Client #s if you are going through this by transit or are born with it.
Mercury governs all matters pertaining to information, communication, business transactions, the signing of documents, news by mail or phone, letters, courier services, etc. All gadgets of communication i.e. cell phones, telephones as well as emails and all other forms of communication are also represented by Mercury.
Saturn represents the side of you which makes you work for everything you get. A difficult aspect from Saturn increases the delays in all these areas. In fact, you will set yourself up for delays in all forms of communication in order to test and strengthen your planning ability. The house being transited by Saturn will indicate the area of delays.
Mercury itself can be in twelve different signs and therefore, any Saturn Mercury aspects will each produce twelve interpretations. Saturn may be just what is needed to harness the intellect e.g. Einstein had Mercury conjunct Saturn in Aries. Aries is an intelligent sign and indicates someone who enjoys new challenges but also gets bored easily. In Einstein’s case, although Saturn affected his communication skills to some extent (he did not speak till he was almost six years old and had a deliberate way of thinking), it increased his concentration and tenacity. A classic example of his perseverance (almost a stubbornness) was his “unification” theory on which he spent nearly twenty years, and stuck to it till the end of his life. Steve Jobs of Apple is the best example of practical inventive ideas (Mercury in Aquarius aspected to Saturn).
Saturn goes around your chart in 29 to 30 years and makes many different angles to your natal Mercury. Its negative transits increase delays in getting through to people and problems with transportation as well. Even an adverse transit from Saturn increases your discipline, focus, concentration, and your ability to accept responsibility and authority. Most scientists, supervisors and those in positions of authority are born with a Saturn / Mercury aspect.
For achievement, Saturn is very helpful when it makes an aspect to Mercury in a bright sign like Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius, and Pisces. It is inhibiting for Mercury in Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, and Capricorn, who can become very cautious and narrow-minded.
When Saturn makes an adverse aspect to your natal Mercury (conjunction, square, and opposition and other minor aspects), you will experience delays in your projects, negotiations, and contractual matters. Quite often, things may get misplaced or lost in the mail. If you are born with a natal adverse aspect between Saturn and Mercury, then it is like having Mercury retrograde all the time! If you are going through it by transit, then the same principle applies for the duration of the transit. If you have Mercury in Capricorn, then you might also experience most of the points given to some extent.
When you encounter delays in any area, the best way to deal with it would be to get to the root cause of it and to re-evaluate your organizing ability. In the long run, you will manage your time better and become more productive in your work. Use more efficient software or computer system, delegate some of the work, plan ahead and schedule different projects to offset the negative effects of this transit.
