Mercury Transit 2026: In Medini astrology, Mercury is considered as ‘ambassador’ and ‘businessman’. When it enters Saturn’s stable and scientific sign Aquarius, the world’s intellect turns away from individual selfishness and towards ‘collective revolution’.
This time the transit is extraordinary because the energies of Saturn, Sun and Pluto already present in Aquarius, together with Mercury, are creating a ‘pressure chamber’ from where old systems will break down and new systems will be born.
Geopolitics: ‘New Cold War’ between superpowers
Aquarius is the sign of global networks. The influence of Mercury with Saturn here is indicating a change in the center of power on the world map.
- America (USA): This transit in America’s horoscope will challenge their ‘technological monopoly’. America will make its cyber security policies so stringent that there may be tension in international trade relations. Government investigation and new laws will tighten the noose on the big tech companies there.
- China and Russia: From the Medini view, Mercury in Aquarius will give China an edge in ‘space technology’ and ‘digital warfare’. In February 2026, there will be more news about ‘satellite hacking’ or ‘data leak’ than tension on the border. The dispute between Russia and Europe will deepen over exchange of ‘data and information’ instead of gas and oil.
- India’s global rise: For Indian horoscope (Taurus ascendant), Mercury’s transit to Aquarius is taking place in the tenth house (kingdom and karma). India will emerge as the ‘digital arbiter’ of the world at this time. India’s fintech policies and networks like UPI will become standards at the global level, which will further increase India’s stature on the global stage.
stock market
February 2026 will be a month of ‘extreme volatility’ for the market. With Mercury entering Aquarius, investors may react more to ‘technology’ and ‘rumours’ than ‘logic’. Due to which some areas may be more affected-
Banking and Fintech (The Digital Rupture)
Clouds of crisis may loom over the traditional banking model. Central banks around the world will make such announcements regarding their digital currency (CBDC) which will reduce the importance of cash.
There will be huge fluctuations in banking shares. There may be a big fall in the shares of banks which are lagging behind in technology, while there are indications of a flood of investment in blockchain based startups.
IT, AI and Robotics (The AI ​​Sovereignty)
The presence of Mercury in Aquarius is the beginning of a new era of ‘Artificial Intelligence’. In February, such an AI technology will be made public which will completely change the nature of human labour.
‘Irrational Exuberance’ will be seen in the shares of semiconductor and AI-software companies. Investors will leave traditional manufacturing and move towards tech-based companies.
The impact of Saturn may hamper the global supply of chips and hardware. This will affect the production of the automobile sector, especially electric vehicle (EV) companies.
If we talk about the impact on the market, there is a strong possibility of ‘correction’ in the shares of these companies in mid-February due to shortage in supply.
Information explosion!
In Medini astrology, Mercury is considered the factor of communication. Mercury in the air sign of Aquarius spreads information like wildfire. After this transit, government control over social media platforms will weaken. ‘Digital movements’ can lead to political instability in many countries. In February 2026, a global debate may erupt on the Internet regarding ‘censorship’ and ‘free speech’.
Mainstream media will start losing its relevance. Deepfakes and AI generated news will be so powerful that it will be difficult for the general public to differentiate between truth and falsehood. This will be the time to enter the period of ‘information anarchy’.
natural and environmental signals
The position of Mercury and Saturn in the air sign Aquarius also brings unexpected changes in the weather. In the second and third week of February, there may be strong winds, sea storms or major technical obstacles in the aviation sector. Incidents like space debris or collision of satellites can disrupt the global communication system for some time.
Economic and diplomatic opportunities for India
For India, the time from February 3, 2026 to April is of ‘digital self-reliance’. There may be an outflow of money from the markets in early February, but considering India’s strength in the technology sector, there are indications that foreign investors will make a big comeback again.
Talking about matters related to education and youth, India’s youth will rapidly move towards new skills and AI-based education, which will give a boost to ‘Gig Economy’.
This transit of Mercury in Aquarius will make it clear that now the war will not be fought with tanks, but with ‘terabytes’ (data). The country or company which has the most advanced information system will rule the world after this ‘Great Reset’.
Precautions and Tips
According to Medini calculations, don’t be part of the ‘crowd’ while investing in February 2026. Rumors will be at their peak in the market. This conjunction of Mercury-Saturn will benefit only those who will rely on ‘data’ and ‘logic’. This transit may prove to be the herald of the end of the old industrial system and the rise of a completely ‘digital and transparent world’.
