Mercury Transit 2026: On February 3, Mercury has entered Aquarius and will remain in this zodiac till April 10, 2026. Aquarius is the zodiac sign of Saturn. Due to the presence of Mercury in this zodiac sign, there will be chances of change in the financial condition of many people. Astrologer Dr. Anish Vyas, Director of Pal Balaji Astrology Institute, Jaipur, Jodhpur, said that Mercury is the planet responsible for intelligence, logic, communication and business. The arrival of Mercury in Aquarius brings newness in people’s thoughts and is beneficial in work related to knowledge.
While remaining in Aquarius, Mercury will be retrograde on February 26, direct on March 21 and then enter Pisces on April 10. Due to this, some people may face losses and disputes in transactions and investments, while some people may face obstacles in their financial matters. This planet affects buying and selling, transactions, investment, speech, expression, calculations and intelligence. Journalists, people involved in advocacy, business and stock market can be more affected by the change in the zodiac sign of Mercury.
conjunction of mercury with rahu
With the entry of Mercury into Aquarius, a conjunction has been formed with Rahu. Mercury is the factor of intelligence, logic, speech and decision making ability, while Rahu is considered a symbol of cleverness, strategy and unusual thinking. Therefore, due to the conjunction of these two planets, inertia yoga has been formed. Although inertia yoga is not considered auspicious in astrology, but in Kaliyuga, diplomatic and practical intelligence is not considered negative but is considered the key to success. In such a situation, this combination of Mercury and Rahu can give many zodiac signs including Aries and Gemini a sharp mind, the ability to take smart decisions and take advantage of opportunities.
In the same sequence, Venus has also entered Aquarius on 6 February 2026 and ‘Trigrahi Yoga’ has been formed with Mercury and Rahu. Which is a sign of ups and downs and big changes in love and financial life. The ‘Panchagrahi Yoga’ formed when Sun and Mars also enter Aquarius in the month of February will bring tension in relationships, arrogance and intensity in financial decisions. This transit of Venus, the planet of love, beauty and grandeur, under the influence of Rahu’s contingency and Mars-Sun’s energy, will bring a transformational phase in personal relationships and money management.
