A favourable and strengthened Mercury assists a person in putting his/her viewpoint forward in front of anyone conveniently and helps the concerned individual to garner substantial economic gains because of his/her excellent communication skills. Such a native is also widely recognized for being proficient in the field of Arithmetics and proves to be an expert in business and trade. With the pleasant manner of speaking, a Mercury affected native leaves a good impression on everyone. On the contrary, the unfavourable placement of Mercury in one’s birth chart makes the individual overly talkative, because of which people start despising him/her. 

In order to strengthen the presence of Mercury in one’s Kundli, astrologers recommended to wear Vidhara Roots or Emerald Gemstone. Additionally, the Four Faced Rudraksha can also be worn so as to receive the blessings of Budh Dev. The Vishnu Sahasranam Strotam can be recited to appease the planet and make its position more favourable. Natives who maintain amicable relations with their sisters, daughters, paternal as well as maternal aunts are more likely to be at the receiving end of auspicious results generated by Mercury. 

Mercury is the fastest moving planet in the solar system and hence it makes transit in any zodiac sign for a very short duration. Communication system has made a significant amount of progress in the present era and Mercury being the governor of communication systems, is able to exert a great influence on human existence within the few days of its transit. Generally, the transit of Mercury through the second, fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth and eleventh house from a native’s Moon sign, situated in his/her Kundli, gives birth to positive outcomes. Whereas, in the last few houses, the planet endorses unfavourable results.

Mythological Significance of Onam 


As per popular beliefs , it is stated that a demon king named Mahabali used to rule Kerala during the ancient times. Under his reign, the local natives enjoyed a peaceful time and encountered little or no difficulties. However, the king of all the Devtas, Lord Indra became jealous of his rising popularity and as he apprehended that Mahabalis’ grand status would overshadow his power and authority. Consequently, he manipulated all the Devas to approach Lord Vishnu and ask him to end his reign. Vishnu ji, who was quite aware of Mahabali’s generous nature, took the form of a Vamana(a dwarf Brahmin) and pleaded with him to donate three footsteps of land. Afterwards, Vishnu ji, disguised as the Vamana, enclosed the entire earth in his first step and then went on to cover the whole of heaven in his second step. When he was seeking for a spot to put forth his last and third step, King Mahabali presented his head for Lord Vamana to put his foot on, and Lord Vamana pushed him to purgatory. But King Mahabali's benevolence created a deep imprint in Vishnu Ji’s heart which is why he gave him the boon of being able to visit his subjects and kingdom once in a year. Thus, the festival of Onam is celebrated in Mahabali’s honour and to mark his homecoming.

In the Kundli of independent India, Venus will enter its third house from the zodiac sign of Cancer, due to which some wrong doers can try to spread some improper information through the telecommunication medium. They may try to spoil the nation’s atmosphere by generating indecent messages on social media platforms. But after a few days, the transit of Mercury taking place in the same sign will improve the situation immediately and the country and technology will make progress in the field of Information and Broadcasting. While relationships with some friendly countries will remain weak at the beginning, renegotiations will take place and eventually the bond with amiable nations will once again start to bloom.
