Mercury Opposite Uranus: Finding Your Way Through Chaos

Fall can be a crazy time. There’s a lot to do before the year winds down, and it’s easy to get wrapped up in it and lose track of things. This year, you can place some of the blame on Mercury opposite Uranus. Mercury moves opposite Uranus on October 20, and this aspect has the potential to cause a few headaches. Knowing what to expect can make it a little easier, but it’s similar to Mercury retrograde-the best way to handle it is to just to keep your head above the water. Here’s how Mercury opposite Uranus can affect you:

  1. Life will feel very hectic.

Even if you’re normally a pro at balancing everything, it suddenly might feel like too much. You might be tempted to cancel every event penciled into your schedule, even the things you’ve been looking forward to, because you desperately want to be alone and unwind. Don’t be afraid to turn down a few invites in the coming days-it’s okay to feel introverted and take time for yourself.

  1. Things you have overlooked in the past can no longer be ignored.

Unpaid bills, appointments you forgot to schedule, e-mails that have been rotting in your “drafts” folder-it’s time to face them. This aspect can dredge up all the things you’ve tried to ignore and put on the back burner. But tackling them isn’t an impossible task. Make a to do list and take a weekend to play catch up. You’ll feel much better by Monday.

  1. It’s best not to make plans.

You know how planning is discouraged during Mercury retrograde? This aspect has a similar impact on planning. Plans will often be canceled, rescheduled, or turn into more hassle than they’re worth. Take care of everything on your plate now before adding anything else. Even picking a date and time to have coffee with friends can turn into a hassle.

  1. Double-check everything.

This aspect can turn you into a scatter brain, so it’s more important than ever to make a strong effort to stay organized. If you don’t already have a planner, now is the time to get one! Write down everything, even if it doesn’t seem that important. This aspect makes it exceptionally difficult to keep track of everything going on in your life, so having it all laid out in front of you makes things much easier to manage.

  1. Take plenty of time to relax.

You never feel guilty about taking time to relax alone-especially when Mercury is opposite Uranus! Long bubble baths, mornings with no alarm set, and midday naps are all highly encouraged under this aspect. You will need the extra relaxation time to recharge and take on the day. If this means turning down some social invites, so be it. But don’t rule out the possibility of relaxing with friends, either-a group spa day could be a fun option! Whatever you choose to do, just make sure to indulge and unwind-your body and mind will thank you for it.
