Mercury Magic

Written By Damascena Tanis

Each time Mercury makes a conjunction to the Sun in his retrograde phase we call is a “Cazimi”.

This is a phenomenal time to plant Mercurial seeds. Mercury related intentions. Call it the “New Moon Phase” of the Mercury cycle.

Over the next 88 days these intentions, given our love and attention, will grow. 

It is a time of great manifestation in the world of business, communication, education, transportation, etc. A phenomenal time to switch up communication strategies, start a new blog or writing project. Do an overhaul on an email campaign. Commit to speaking your deepest truth in environments it’s typically felt edgy to do so…

This Mercury cycle feels like an auspicious time for me to do the latter.

With Venus focalized in the throat chakra, in the sign of Gemini, and Mercury in Taurus , I’ve decided it’s time to focus on the high sensation, somatic, signatures that accompanies bringing my deepest truth out into the world. And where my nervous system incorrectly signals that it’s not safe for me to do so. 

(Funnily, this upcoming eclipse takes place on my asteroid Kassandra. See past posts to learn more about her) 

While Gemini might rule speech, it is Taurus that is the medium for gnosis, and it is through Taurus our words are channeled from the well of our deepest truth. It is through our belly, our womb, and our soma, that we receive the reverb of earth. 

And so, I have seeded the intention to activate the connection between my somatic body, and my voice within all of my work.

I invite you to follow me on Instagram, where I put quite a bit of attention on my stories. Extra astrological tidbits and teachings.

Today, I linked a special little Mercury transmission. 

I will leave the rest of my meeting with Mercury to the mystery, and let it be revealed in over the course of time. 


Damascena Tanis

Damascena is an Archetypal Astrologer, Ayurvedic Wellness Practitioner, and The Facilitator of the Transformative Journey through the Mandala of Venus’ Wisdom, called “Sky Dancer”.

She is a passionate devotee of the ever unfolding mystery. As an expert observer, a trait she developed as an only child, she regards herself as both a student of life, and decoder of the cosmos.

Skilled at recognizing invisible patterns, and picking up on subtle shifts in the collective, she gets a thrill from uncovering and revealing the hidden threads that are woven together to create our paradigm.

Her passion for this existential detective work aligns well with her unique approach to one on one client work, as she helps others to discover the building blocks of their archetypal blueprint, and mythic overtones. She does not believe that astrology is static, and therefore works with clients to develop strategies and practices that allow them to transcend challenging aspects of their natal chart.

She lives on the Shores of Lake Erie with her husband, four kids, and Cat, Oscar (the grouch).

These days, when she isn’t interpreting a natal chart, or translating the stars for her astrology blog, you can find her engaging in one of her favorite pandemic pastimes, unraveling her inner “good girl”, cultivating the ability to thrive in the deep, dark, unknown, or playing her favorite game of identifying fun paradoxes called “two things are true at once”.
