Nakshatra-Wise & Zodiac-Wise Impact with Remedies
When Mercury, the planet of intellect, communication, business, analysis, and decision-making, becomes combust near the Sun, its ability to express clearly becomes restrained. In January 2026, Mercury travels through Capricorn—a sign of discipline, responsibility, karma, and long-term planning—while undergoing combustion and shifting nakshatras.
This transit is not about speed or expansion.
It is about correction, restructuring, and conscious speech.

General Impact of Combust Mercury in Capricorn
During combustion, Mercury’s energy turns inward. Combined with Capricorn’s karmic nature, this period emphasizes:
Delays in communication and approvals
Re-thinking professional commitments
Revisiting financial decisions
Mental fatigue due to over-responsibility
Misunderstandings caused by assumptions rather than facts
This is not a favourable time for impulsive decisions, but an excellent phase for review, planning, editing, and restructuring.
