Mercury's nakshatra transit reveals how intellectual and communicative energy shifts on a finer scale. Mercury in Ashwini nakshatras brings quick decisions and impulsive speech, while in Revati it promotes compassionate and creative communication. Since Mercury governs the Vimshottari Dasha, its nakshatra position during transit creates a subtle resonance with the native's running dasha period, making it especially relevant for those in Mercury Mahadasha or Antardasha.

What is Nakshatra Transit?
Nakshatras are 13°20' segments — finer than signs. Each has its own lord and deity. Essential for muhurat timing.
