Mercury enters Virgo

Mercury crosses into Virgo on 2 September 2025 at 13:18 UTC.

An ingress is simply a body passing 0° of a sign, but it marks a genuine change of register: Mercury in Virgo operates through earth means and at a mutable tempo. Mercury moves quickly and changes how conversation, negotiation and thinking are conducted.

Virgo is ruled by Mercury, so for as long as Mercury is here its behaviour is coloured by that planet as well as by its own nature.
