The Sun conjoins Mercury at 7+ Capricorn shortly after 1:27 am EST Sunday, indicating that this will be a weekend to recall in more than one sense of the word. It begins with how the timing of their conjunction will recall the previous merger of the Sun and Mercury at 9+ Scorpio on Nov. 1, 2013. For it was only two days later that the Moon took Mercury’s place, joining the Sun for a Scorpio New Moon and solar eclipse on Nov. 3 — the final eclipse of 2013.
Now, the Sun and Mercury are about to recall the first days of November with a conjunction that will again be followed by a New Moon (in Capricorn this time, with no eclipse) only two days later to begin 2014.
For astrologers, similar events create correlations with times past. Those correlations in turn can help you to plot your course into the future by noting both similarities and differences. It begins with practicing some recollection.
You would begin by taking some time this coming weekend to collect yourself and recall Nov. 1, along with the days that immediately followed. You would want to find some memories to both compare and contrast with your life now. Where there is comparison, you will be able to evaluate what has remained the same for you over the last two months or so. Where there is contrast, you should be able to gain insight on what has changed. Taken together, you should be able to gain insight on changes you may want to make in 2014.
