Current position of Mercury for 28 October 2026, sidereal (Lahiri) zodiac.
Mercury is in Libra (Tula) at 25° 45′ 9″, retrograde.
Nakshatra: Vishakha, ruled by Jupiter.
Dignity: Friendly Sign.
State: Normal.
Mercury rules speech, intellect, trade, contracts and everything you negotiate. It spends about three weeks in each sign, so its transit through Libra colours those areas for everyone — but which part of your life it touches depends on your own rashi.
A retrograde graha turns its significations inward and backward: matters it rules tend to revisit old ground, revive unfinished business, or slow down before they move forward again.
