Astrologically, Mercury, the planet of communication and intellect, has become direct in the sign of Aquarius as of June 29, indicating a period of enhanced mental clarity and decision-making for many. However, leading astrologer Praveen Mishra warns that this shift will not benefit all zodiac signs equally. Specifically, individuals belonging to Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, and Pisces should exercise extreme caution during this transit, as the position of Mercury could introduce various difficulties and uncertainties into their lives.

For Cancer individuals, the period may be marked by ups and downs in personal relationships, with potential rifts emerging in close bonds. Health issues may also be prevalent, and hastily made decisions could lead to significant setbacks. Financial transactions should be avoided at this time to prevent complications. Mishra suggests that those under this sign perform daily rituals, such as pouring Ganga water over a Shivling and offering grass to Lord Ganesha, to mitigate the challenges posed by Mercury's influence.

Virgo individuals should also prepare for a challenging phase, as this time may see an unexpected surge in expenses and difficulties in acquiring sources of income. This period will test their patience and resilience. Furthermore, results from competitive examinations may be tougher to achieve. Astrologers recommend that those born under this sign remain vigilant, especially in personal and financial matters, as the impact of Mercury's direct motion may lead to unforeseen issues if not approached carefully.
