Mercury Sextile Uranus

Mercury Sextile Uranus Natal

This combination suggests a harmonious complement between ordinary and extraordinary states of consciousness and perception. If you have this aspect in your birth chart, you have a high ability to interact with modern technology or possess unusual ways of seeing or perceiving and yet you still do not lose touch with the normal day-to-day life that most people experience. You may have a “straight” job and an unusual home life, or you may do something quite exotic or unusual for work and yet lead a quiet suburban home existence. Either way, the ability to transition between super-specialized or hidden worlds and the common realms keeps either world from becoming too much. This rhythm of consciously alternating between sharp contrasts might even be used on a smaller scale to keep from burning out on any intense activity.

Mercury Sextile Uranus Transit

This transit represents an opportunity to introduce an element of contrast or volatility that heightens your perceptions and brings fresh energy, insights, or new ideas into something which has grown stale. Seek out the unusual or challenge yourself to accept and integrate something you usually avoid. This is generally a brief transit which comes around twice a year, however, every six to seven or even thirteen years apart, Mercury will make an extended series of three sextiles with the middle one during its retrograde. These are much more significant transits that could bring breakthroughs in understanding and getting past previous limitations or traumatic experiences. Integrating the volatile contents that emerge now may take time, and should not be rushed but allowed to proceed at their own natural pace.
