Mercury Moves You Towards A Better Life
Stardrops October 26, 2025
Welcome everyone! This week at Starfires we cover:
- The perfect way to start the week by targeting goals, tasks and deeper insights you want to reach, how to get there with the Grand Trine from Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. This can be on multi-levels: Spiritual depth and releasing old patterns, regrets, dysfunctions or messes, tackling overwhelming physical or financial issues, emotional healing, and body needs.
- Personal security needs, recognizing how much we might habitually ignore them and how to begin moving towards greater certainty and security. Again, multi-layered. Jupiter in Cancer trine Saturn. is moving from an old world to a new one.
- Mercury Retrograde at 6* Sagittarius; tuning into the insights of our personal guide, mentor and director- designed to lead us towards raising the bar on our expectations in life – for ourselves, our surroundings, work, projects or whatever it may be – unwilling to perform in the old manner. Ensuring all backups, copies, repairs, security identity data is covered. Pay attention to where you are going and get grounded in your body. Be aware of your surroundings and the people around you when out in public.
Oct 26 – 30 Mars at 23 – 30* Scorpio trine Jupiter and Saturn
Pick a thing which you know must get done. Engage your visual and emotional perfection of that outcome as if already achieved. Ask the Divine Source to perfect and infuse this image outcome you desire with Its Grand Design according to Its greater design for you.
We are moving through one state to a new state.
The key for our success is the mental and emotional focus we practice now, in addition to bringing down the love. This supercharges the atomic material with the Divine Love and Design, which goes beyond what we could ever create all by ourselves.
AFFIRMATION
” I AM surrounded with the Divine Design for my life, going beyond any thing I could ever humanly imagine on my own. I Am Grateful and it is now unfolding perfectly!”
Mars, our planet of dynamic motivation combined with the expansive Jupiter is bringing us all into an excellent period now. It is a perfect time to concentrate upon hard things. It might be career, family or money – projects which we have been procrastinating which may possess several complex steps involved. Whatever it is, take this opportunity to not overthink it too much, and just decide to take that first step. Breaking it down This cycle alone could inspire us to handle challenging things which have triggered emotional resistance and procrastination.
This time frame address things just don’t want to deal with it, because who likes to tackle stressful situations. Mars in Scorpio activates the need to dive in and strategize, also to invite support from the people whom we count on. Mars in Scorpio deals with joint money, expenses, budgets and other complex problems. Mars in Scorpio also triggers trust issues, anything involving bonding, pooling talents, support and resources together. Anything involving collaborations over the past months and now a constructive talk or approach is taking form to fill in the outline of an idea. Jupiter is in Cancer, which is also releases the emotional personal element of closeness.
Simply clear one’s resolve and mind to just say what you need to say, do the thing you need to do, take action on the thing that has to be addressed, and as we said before, don’t over think it, just plan on it and get through it!
Remember, Mars pushes us to get up and do, not just analysis or engage in conversations or contemplation. It prompts us to get up and move forward. As it is moving through Scorpio, its way would be to go deep, thorough, strategize and take on the complicated tasks. This is the week (now through October 30) successfully handle these issues.
October 29 – December 5, 2025, Jupiter trine Saturn
In addition to the Mars’ penetrating motivation to help us achieve, we have Jupiter connected with Saturn. This cycle continues up through December 5, 2025, to ensure a satisfying closure and completion of certain outcomes. Saturn crystalizes the outcome we are achieving into a potentially new permanent reality!
Jupiter in Cancer, again, expands emotional security wellbeing, nurturing, financial security, safety, and some degree of reassurance. With its connection with Saturn in Pisces this ensures a practical action, and also, a relief or closure.
Jupiter in Cancer (from June 2025 through June 2026,) is the once in 12 years opportunity to achieve greater security, emotional wellbeing, domestic certainty, family closeness –home repair, real estate success, financial goals, anything which provides a sense of security and growth. It can even address our emotional needs.
Saturn in Pisces which has been active since 2023 – up through February 2026, has tested us all with overcoming our subconscious patterns and sabotage, fears, loss, sickness, psychology, or issues where things have been deteriorating or not up to our standards.. Anything which deals with hopelessness at facing the entire synthesis of living in the matrix and caught between our own karma and being controlled to some degree, by an invisible code. The positive of Saturn in Pisces is becoming the electron in motion interjecting vision, healing, doctoring and sacrifice to bring down heaven on earth. And! To Not Give Up!
Combining all three planets from Oct 29 – December 5, is to fuse these energies of:
- Motivation, visualization, with emotional love and focus
- Strategy and belief a thing can be crystalized in matter
- Providing greater security and certainty, abundance and relief internally and externally.
…and, by flowing with a new acceptance of personal abilities. The Mars in Scorpio, inspires an idea, the Divine Source, the Mighty God Presence, desires you to be full, happy, expansive and thereby giving more of your own talents and love to others.. These cycles could support us to not only accept and realize the truth and reality of our personal situation we are in, and this is a very important piece, but also, giving ourselves some credit from what we have achieved in life so far!
Given that Scorpio (Mars in Scorpio), Pisces (Saturn in Pisces) and let’s add Neptune conjoin Saturn 2025-2026 in Pisces/Aries, we have a wide spread of time, emphasizing the theme of any phenomenon research (Scorpio) on the planet and millions of souls engaging in this very technique, transcending time/space limitations.
Any negative global activities previously hidden from us, placing humanity at risk through deception, at a disadvantage could also at this time begin coming out like we’ve never seen before. The trick is to not become distracted with all the external drama, and continue each day to focus on your personal Mastery of Love in Action.
I see this period over the next two weeks as a powerful time for a large number of Divine Souls, to begin moving to our next level of spiritual/physical security.
October through November, exact November 20, 2025, leaves December 17/ Uranus sextile Neptune.
Anytime Uranus is in a positive connection with another planet, breakthroughs happen! It is very strong, should be obvious somehow in your life. These breakthroughs might be over slow, tedius situations – or possibly with dysfunctional and/or frustrating situations in our lives which can finally happen. This is a re-run from the first peak which occurred all July – August 2025.
This cycle connects you with collaborations, ingenious team work, people who can help you,.
Upgrading your life in some way can definitely begin happening. Think about some positive changes, some form of conviction, insight or physical change coming about, which began July- August – straight through October….(Peaking again, November 20)…Sometimes it is an insight, a new plan – or an in the physical world around you.
These are the open doors of hope, a brighter future. The hard issues are the continuing karma or opposition, challenges which require the new hope to push through and get through the door. Again, we are looking at a process of moving from one state to a new state of reality in this world. Re-creating Reality is the theme of this cycle!
Mercury Retrograde at 6* Sagittarius
October 19 – December 16 Retrograde exact November 9, 2026.
As always with Mercury retro, there will be a strong focus upon a new idea popping into your head during the dates above. You could be dealing with travel, meetings, communications – possibly some paperwork, details of life, errands, decisions made.
But I would like to add a bullet list to cover because it will be making mostly positive outcomes. These aspects will be to Saturn and protection energies for all your plans and physical financial needs, domestic home real estate, with Jupiter.
Mercury will also make an opposition with Uranus – so we need to prepare. This Uranus/Mercury cycle can bring about separations from others, a sense of distance from others, accepting a new state of change, independence, sometimes rejection, alienation, disentangling from other situations suddenly.
The List:
- Make copies ofl your important documents – bills, accounts, passwords, credit cards, social security, birth certificates, or anything else you want to ensure you have safely documented.
- Time to make some financial decisions to ensure your outlook on life is good, things are wrapped up, savings, investments, gold/silver, etc…if you can, move on these activities to increase a sense of being covered.
- Look out for your cars, vehicles of all kinds, machinery, computers, phones, and tablets -external hard drive, data, and backups.
- Electrical – or any situation around you which would be vulnerable to accidents. Clean up your environment.
- Time to meet with important people and discuss plans for traveling, meeting up – future goals.
- Know we are breaking apart from our old self, but not like we all experienced in September during the eclipses. That was more about a mysterious dissolving of our unreal parts of ourselves. This time, it is a clean movement, a conscious decision to go beyond the old self.
The New Theme from Mercury
(Mercury moves into 20 Degrees Scorpio on October 19 – reaches 6* Sagittarius and turns retrograde exactly on November 9, moves back into 20* Scorpio on November 27* – December 2 where Mercury then turns Direct {Leaves Retrograde}, moves back into Sagittarius on October 12, and moves on.)
Mercury Retro’s theme enhances the importance for overcoming procrastination. It inspires spiritual values, good boundaries, ethics, morality, and good judgment during this time – expansion with our visualizations for our future potential. It is all about faith and belief in something better than what we have been doing, living like, or dealing with.
It guides our life situations towards breaking down old barriers and matrix. Moving beyond the stagnation. It deals with expansion, journeys, adventures and expanded knowledge, life experiences. Expanding our consciousness.
Mercury is our planet for talking, listening, discovering new information – in Sagittarius it inspired and guides us to move beyond old ways. It coaches, teaches, lectures, presents and involves higher learning. Publishing, marketing, classes, or events all surrounding higher knowledge.
The Challenge:
Globally this could be a negatively rich environment (October 19 – December 16 ) for those who try to control the narrative in the world, to project and push a belief of whatever news, revelations, exposures (Movies? Documentaries?) is being publicly released during November/December. Globally while you and I are expanding in our higher minds, an aggressive attempt at promoting a controlled slant on certain global news aggressively will occur. But what else is new – this time frame could simply see it extremely aggressively and embarrassingly pushed and ridiculous. Obvious. Challenged. Taken apart.
Mercury retrogrades’ problem during this period is the danger of it being used for marketing a partial truth globally. Why? Because Mercury retrograde is in opposition to Uranus from October 25 – December 10. Uranus is the planet of revelations, truth, and transparency, the abnormal, unconventional and anything which reveals truth especially if it is unconventional or bizarre – it offers an elevated consciousness to see from a higher truth/vantage point. However, Uranus is in direct opposition to Mercury, which tells me, there is a split between the projection of information and the actual truth. In other words, a propaganda.
The positive of Uranus oppose Mercury would be those who are aligned with truth and higher intuitive abilities rejects the projection. Is this entirely global or would we be handling this in our own personal lives in some way?
Personally, it might separate us from our old self, old style or even others – as Uranus oppositions can create disentangling from a situation, a job, a family scenario, or an attitude or person. The Mars conjoin Mercury retro already began on October 19-29 (activated the entire process of a new event) and then hits the direct opposition with Uranus on November 29. A separation of some kind.
This opposition can also lead to unexpected mishaps in our life’s from end of October up to December, so be careful with your stuff. Phone, cards, money, identity, data, and your computer.
Note: These processes of events can happen anytime between mid October through Mid-December – Events don’t always happen exactly on the peak cycles – but spread out as a theme. All of them.
Another empowering motivator – Mercury conjoins Mars again on November 12th.
November 12 will be another incident, a trigger, another potentially significant moment where we once again assess how we are doing, But, it can also be yet another release of global spinning of a belief or opinions escalating in the world.. This would be a good time to get back to our Divine Source visualization for our new breakthroughs to materialize!
Then on November 19, the disentangling from some dysfunction, the need for questioning and separating out from something, in our personal lives…the Mercury opposition continues with this separating out situation up through December 10 (Mercury retro/direct oppose Uranus again).
The final movement of Mercury returns a third time to the original trigger, conjoins Mars, on January 18, 2026, yet this time it is in Capricorn. By the time the Mars/Mercury hits Capricorn, a new attitude appears which is ambitious, functional, practical with steps in place. It is a pragmatic plan, the inevitable discipline and structure required to achieve it, and a new level of commitment in action.
RECAP:
Okay – here is our recap of Mercury cycles .
There is the initial moment of realization in October, the prompting to expand – to learn, to open oneself up to a new attitude, knowledge and growth – (along with the world controllers attempting to project a propaganda.) and! along with our resistance to the propaganda, or the projection. A strong desire to disentangle, to be one’s true self on ones’ highest terms – to use good judgment and boundaries – to not sell out and cave in – to embrace the best path chosen .
Then another trigger or prompting to keep progressing on your adventure of freedom and new life accomplishments (November 12th) and that cycle keeps playing out all the way to the last Mercury/Uranus aspect on December 10.
Once we arrive on December 10 we have gone through a change in our thinking, about life, the news, world events, and what we are to do to be happy, what we desire to achieve. We have raised the bar somehow, believing we can live this new life. From where we started, mid-October, to December 12th let’s say, we are now on a very different better track!
By the time we achieve the last Mercury conjoin Mars in January 2026, (even though it is no longer retrograde) in Capricorn, we have set the new plan, structure and conviction to move forward.
Now there is another Mercury retrograde/direct conjoin Mars trigger for the next insight– and that will be March 1 – 15th, 2026. But we are not going into that now. It will be in Pisces.
Let’s track how we might be elevating ourselves, our opinions, and good judgment and also to discern what is happening at this time in the world during October/November/December!
Expand our belief in ourselves, belief in our future better life/self. This requires an elevation of our positive vision to reach greater things. All of this is to expand our potential of what we can actually achieve! This is because Mercury retrograde hyper focuses upon Sagittarian qualities for all of us personally. Because of the opposition it makes, I suspect there is also an agenda to counteract our own intuitive nature – we must be very scrutinizing during this time what we allow into our beliefs.

October 24 – December 11, 2025 Mercury retrograde trine Neptune – October 19 – December 11 (above).
The last theme of our Mercury retrograde is an ethereal spiritual experience we could all witness to.
Opening oneself up to love, music, the heart receiving or comprehending an emotional alignment with heaven, could happen also, during October through Mid December. Love, increased gratitude, new people, friendships or deep insights occurring at this time.
Is it an event taking place? Is it something you have witnessed, an insight – being touched? Could it be a book you discovered or anything which expands your awareness of the higher realms?
Mercury also sextiles Pluto, which is extremely positive for negotiating money – setting up accounts, coming to a truce or an agreement. It is positive for paperwork, documents, judgments, and opinions of others which appear fairly correct and just. The strongest dates for these are October 30 – November 17, then December 1 – 12, 2025.
Mercury also trines Jupiter and Saturn at the same time – this is a period for either travel, adventure, expansive experiences where we embrace a new environment, people, friends, or life situations – we connect, we learn and allow that big picture of our whole life, sink in. It can bring good fortune with all tasks taken on – projects can flow in a positive way.
It Is good fortune for sharing, companionship, adventure and for most things to come through for you. That is Saturn’s influence, any action geared towards providing certainty, practicality, bringing ideas into reality, creating greater order and functionality in your life.
Once again, thank you for your support and feedback on these detailed reports! Enjoy the ride!
