the formula is there is no formula
Greetings, earthlings. When our communication planet Mercury shifts into a new sign, it encourages us to tackle life through the lens of that sign. Mercury moved into Aquarius on January 27, 2025, and will stay in Aqua until February 14, 2025. For these next few weeks approaching problems and conversations like an Aquarius will give you a leg up. How do you talk the Aquarius talk? Easy! Don’t try to be anyone else. The formula is there is no formula. The secret is sticking to the truth, embodying a genuine I-don’t-give-a-fuck attitude that lives inside all of us. Aquarius energy is effortlessly cool, while at the same time being extremely intentional and aligned with their ethics.
Mercury in Aquarius is now in conversation with Pluto in Aquarius, the connection between these two is strong. Aquarius is associated with groups, networks, activism, and friendship. Not to speak for us all, but I feel safe to say that society is feeling a bit weird rn. Uncertainty is in the air, by design. One thing is certain: there are powers in numbers. There is strength in speaking up for the causes you believe in because as you have seen, the other side loooooves doing that. The opposition rides HARD for whatever backward ass shit they’re into. They want you to roll over. Aquarius Mercury needs us to use him. Don’t be afraid, don’t take any troll bait, and stay focused on your message.
Beyond the grand scale of domestic and global stresses, on a local level, Aquarius Mercury is ace at bringing people together. If you have been feeling disconnected from your people, consider this your sign to be the leader. Initiate hangouts rooted around your interests, because if you are passionate about the cause or activity, it will be especially appreciated by others at this time. Share your skills! Share your hobbies! We can teach other cool stuff! I promise it won’t be weird! We are all special and not special at the same! Mercury in Aquarius will also be getting love from social expander Jupiter in Gemini, making this community connection even stronger. Whether it’s IRL or URL, find your people.
Be mindful…Aquarius energy can sometimes be well…snobby lol. Aquarius’s value their taste! In an age of endless appropriation and artistic amalgamation, a cautionary tale during this time is don’t focus on folks who take a bite of your style. Take credit if someone literally plagiarizes you, sure ofc! The term in writing to “kill your darlings” is not to be too precious with your ideas if they aren’t serving the greater story. Don’t be petty. Release the clunky concepts or stale formats that are holding you up. Make space for even better ideas to flow in.
