Mercury in Astrology...

Mercury Rules Gemini & Virgo...
Mercury represents your intellectual style, your way
​of communicating and the way you process information.
Picture

Mercury loves information...

Wherever Mercury is found in a chart, there is a love of new information and of communicating it to world. Mercury is the planet of news. Whether its good news or bad news, it doesn't matter. Mercury wants to find out about it and then pass it on. Be careful about telling your secrets to a Mercury ruled person because they may not remain secrets for long. It isn't that Mercury sets out to expose people, it's more that Mercury just can't contain itself. Its nature is to gather and disperse information.

Use the natal chart generator
 to find the sign and house of your Mercury.
Natal Chart Generator

Mercury is clever...

The house containing Mercury in a chart indicates an area of life where a person can easily use Mercury's quick and clever abilities. The planet is observant and intellectually agile which can really work in a person's favor, especially in business or any area of negotiating or communicating. However, it can also become a slippery slope. Factor in its detached, unemotional tendencies and someone can end up with a conniving tendency rather than a clever one.
Picture

Mercury is restless...

This planet isn't happy unless things are happening. The busier the better. Mercury wants constant motion and action. An extremely low threshold for boredom is likely in a house containing Mercury. With Mercury in the third house, this is amplified as the third house is ruled by Mercury. There is a need to talk or communicate in any way where Mercury is found. Social media, reading, writing or talking will be central wherever Mercury is located. Once a topic has been covered, Mercury is ready for the next one. There is no time for rest required.

Mercury lacks tact...

A focus on facts, details and simply being correct causes Mercury to lack any sense of tactfulness in the house where it falls in a chart. It is a personal planet that only looks our for the chart holder. With its calculating and self-concerned manner, it sees the world as a place to decipher for its own benefit. With Mercury in a house, the chart holder will view events here as external and abstract. Unfortunately this also includes any other people who are involved with the chart holder in that area of life. Mercury needs to remember that life is not just a puzzle to solve. Life includes people with feelings who deserve to be treated with consideration and kindness. It isn't always about being correct. Sometimes Mercury needs to put people first rather than bicker over facts. It's okay to be wrong sometimes!
