Mercury in Scorpio today
On 2026-10-24, Mercury stands at 20°59′ Scorpio and is retrograde.
In plain words
Mercury is in Scorpio right now. Mercury stands for how you think and talk. For a while that has a Scorpio flavour: intense, private, all or nothing. What it does for you depends on where it lands in your own chart. Mercury also appears to move backwards at the moment, so its themes turn inward.

What it means for you
A transit's meaning comes from the house it crosses in your chart, not from the sign alone. Mercury at 20°59′ Scorpio sits in a different house for every rising sign, and it matters most when it aspects one of your own planets. Cast your chart to see which house it is crossing and what it is touching.
