In this episode of our Marketing Medicine series, we dive deep into Mercury's extended journey through Scorpio from October through December 2024—a profound underworld transit that includes a retrograde cycle bringing us back for deeper excavation of truth.
Mercury in Scorpio isn't just about communication challenges or technical difficulties. When Mercury becomes the psychopomp, guiding us into the depths of Pluto's underworld realm, we're confronted with raw, unvarnished truth about how we're really showing up in our work and businesses.
This transit asks the uncomfortable questions: Is what you're doing really what you want to be doing? Is the money you're making truly aligned with your values? Is your impact authentic, or are you imitating someone else's path instead of owning your own voice and medicine?
We'll explore the complete timeline of this transit, including why Mercury will make three passes through Scorpio themes between October and December, with the retrograde period from November 18th through November 29th intensifying the call for radical honesty and transparency.
This episode connects Mercury in Scorpio to the larger context of this snake year—a time for shedding old skins and preparing for the philosophical shifts coming in 2026. We're being asked to get low to the earth, belly on the ground, and confront the deeper truths that want to be lived out and expressed before they come out sideways.
If you've been feeling the pull to get more honest about your business practices, if surface-level marketing is leaving you feeling depleted, or if you're sensing that something deeper wants to emerge through your work, this episode offers guidance for navigating the underworld with Mercury as your guide.
This isn't about things going wrong—it's about allowing what's been hidden to become visible so you can build from a foundation of authentic truth.
