Mercury suffers in this mutable fire sign, meaning it faces challenges when burdened with its usual programming. Left to his own devices, Mercury loves to organize and analyze data, which requires precision and focus. But in Sagittarius, this planet prefers a wider range. It has a horizon-chasing, freewheeling, figure-the-plan-as-you-go attitude. Mercury in Sagittarius is on the hunt for the capital T Truth, which stimulates his sense of adventure. But it’s less about facts and details along the way.

After leaving Sagittarius for methodical Capricorn, Mercury continues retrograde 12 December. When it comes to Mercury retrograde, you know the drill: expect delays, mistakes, poor technology, and general negatives. But to make this mess extra messy, retrograde Mercury enters Sagittarius again December 22.
This means the second half of the retrograde – until it ends January 1, 2024 — will amplify the usual retrograde tricks to maximum volume. Since Mercury is at a disadvantage in Sagittarius, Mercury retrograde here feels a bit like a giant parade of fill-in-your-favorite expletives.

So while the messenger planet is jumping-a-motorcycle-through-a-circle-of-flames-while-juggling-Sagittarius, remind yourself to get back to the task at hand. Ask yourself whether you are spending your energy or other resources wisely. And if you get carried away on an informational ride, have fun. There are endless things to learn. The trick is to remember when to rule.
