Next month Mercury will be cazimi in Gemini. This particular configuration would be extremely auspicious for magical work, especially talismans.
However, things are not as pleasant in the heavens at that time, thus hindering any mercurial energies from manifesting whatever people desire of them. As you can see in the chart, my location does not permit having Mercury rising or culminating while cazimi. If you live in another time zone it's possible that configuration will be available for you. If not, know that any mercurial energies you may employ in a magical working at the time, although very powerful, would probably be less likely to manifest your exact desire due to their location in a certain house at the time.
Even so, you should be careful in order to calculate an election that doesnt occur during a Void of Course. Said lunar event has a tendency to render things fruitless. Moreover, the Moon will be involved in an applying opposition at the time, something inauspicious for beneficial elections.
Thus, this Mercury cazimi is problematic in regards to astro elections for magical work.
I for one will not work with Mercury cazimi on that day, but will probably make use of its combustion in mischievous ways. Mind you, don't buy mercurial talismans made during Mercury combust!
