We’ve been dealing with Mercury retrograde for about three weeks now, and tomorrow, we’ll have Mercury direct in Aquarius. Huzzah! If you’ve been feeling off over the last few weeks, you’re not alone, and we’ve got all the details on what to expect next.
Mercury retrograde is notorious for causing all kinds of mayhem, from technological problems to travel issues, to miscommunications galore, and the past coming back to bite us. Just chalk it up to Mercury retrograde!
This Mercury retrograde came to us in Aquarius and paired with a group of planets in Aquarius (Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, although the Sun exited Aquarius on the 18th). It’s been big Aquarius energy.
Aquarius energy wants us to focus on the future, work on changes, be open to the unconventional, and embrace individuality. All of this may have been more difficult with Mercury retrograde in Aquarius since January 30th.
With Mercury direct in Aquarius, this starts to change. We can feel a shift in energy and can focus for good on working toward the future we want, creating positive change, being true to ourselves, and pushing outside of our comfort zones.
While Mercury direct in Aquarius begins on February 20th, it’s not like a switch that gets turned on and off. There is a little period where we’ll feel the shift happening, so it’s another week or two before we’re fully back.
Let’s explore more fully what this all means.
The Meaning of Mercury Direct in Aquarius
First, we need to review what retrograde means.
A planet is called retrograde when it appears to be moving backward through the zodiac from our view here on Earth. Normal motion for the planets is forward, so when retrograde, the energy gets thrown off.
A planet turns direct when it’s no longer moving backward and starts going forward again. It’s not usually moving forward right away and hovers in the same spot for a little while (called stationing), so there’s a period where the retrograde has ended. However, we’re still adjusting to this until movement forward picks up. You may want to check out the article on how the Mercury shadow impacts you.
Of the planets, Mercury retrograde occurs most often, spending about three weeks 3-4 times each year retrograde. With Mercury being one of the tech rulers and ruler of communication, this tends to have a big impact.
With Mercury direct, we can get our heads back on straight and mojo back. With Mercury direct in Aquarius, we can think about the future more clearly, get the information we need for change, and work more independently.
This is excellent energy for this year, which has a heavy emphasis on change.
We may have started 2021 incredibly focused on that, energized and ready, but the Mercury retrograde may have slowed us down for a little while. Now we can move forward again!

Take Action With Mercury Direct
As we come out of Mercury retrograde, start making plans for what you’re going to do with this energy. Mercury remains in Aquarius until March 15th, so we’ll still have almost another month to work with the Aquarius energy.
Ask yourself:
What future dreams would you like to work on? It’s time to get serious about your dreams for the future and what you hope to achieve in your life, starting now.
What changes do you want to make? Work on plans for a change you want to work on, and gather information or advice you need to make the change real.
In what ways do you need to do things differently? The new and different may not have been as much of an option as of late, but now you can explore it.
Remember that it can take another week or two to get moving and momentum, so don’t worry about pushing things right at this moment. Make plans and be smart with your actions going forward.
A little patience, and then you’re off!
