Mercury Conjunct Jupiter...

starts on March 15 (using a 1 degree orb), is exact on March 16 at 12.26pm in Kilmore, leaves on March 17.  Both at 11 degrees and 16 minutes of Aries.

This is a lovely meeting of planets that should bring at least a better state of mind regarding the people and matters represented by them in your birth chart!

Mercury represents many things, including young people, news, short trips, communication in general, siblings and our attitude to life in general; Jupiter represents opportunity, growth (sometimes too much!), learning and what brings meaning to our existence.

The conjunction is usually something or someone new, and carries the quality of being unconscious or unaware of the future potential of this new person or thing.  The Mercury/Jupiter combination promises something that will brighten our frame of mind and increase our optimism for the future.

As usual, look to see which house this conjunction is falling in to get an idea of where something new may come up for you, and which houses are ruled by Mercury (ones with Gemini or Virgo on them), and Jupiter (ones with Sagittarius or Pisces on them).

If you have personal planets or points in Aries, then this conjunction is likely to be especially important for you.
