Sun Conjunct Retrograde Mercury...

starts on December 20 (using a 1 degree orb), is exact on December 20 at 12.23pm in Kilmore, leaves on December 20.  Both at 28 degrees and 2 minutes of Sagittarius.


Whatever the Sun touches tends to come into prominence in our lives,and the conjunction is a powerful connection that suggests the end of something old, and the beginning of something new.

Mercury represents our thinking, attitude and ability to communicate in general with the world around us, and also to connect with it.  Personally, it represents the people and situations as shown by which houses are ruled by it (house cusps with Gemini or Virgo on them).  Since Mercury is currently retrograde, and will be until the end of the month, it seems that the themes represented by it will have gone back to a previous state, or you will need to review them.

Also look at the house that the conjunction is falling in, and the one with Sagittarius on the cusp in order to get a feel for where a new start is needed.
