Mercury and how you express yourself?

Where's your Mercury and how do you express yourself in life both verbally and in other ways?

My Merc is in Taur. 12th house (in Placidus system). In Vedic, it's Leo, cuz I'm a Leo in their analysis.

I'm a thoughtful speaker, definitely NOT SLOW. Lots of compassionate 12th house influence. I'm the one who will help the person who gets lambasted on a forum for saying the wrong thing to the wrong person. I'm the one who'll send a cyber - hug. I have good relationships with animals as well as with people. Animals know when you're non threatening and love you for it. I "speak" to them in their language and they respond positively to that.

I think grand thoughts which I only express to my closest inner circle. To everyone else I express myself sort of humbly. In art I like to move people emotionally through fantasy rather than graphic reality. I keep my true intelligence hidden and usually only reveal when necessary in argument and debate, or just to shock 'em.

So I am like a Taur Merc and like a 12th house Merc, and sometimes like a Leo Merc.

So what is your Merc. and is it an accurate representation of how you communicate and express yourself to the world?

If you're a Taurus sun in western astrology how come you're Leo in Vedic? Wouldn't you be Aries?

In some Vedic astrologies, I'm still a Taurus. In one other, I am an Aries. In another, I'm a Cancer. In Draconian, I'm a Leo sun moon and merc. Libra asc. Jupiter in the 1st house and Saturn in the fifth. I focus on this last because it's the most plausible alternative to my Western placements. And I do feel like a Leo in many ways,

I have Pisces mercury ..



I...runno..*blurb blub blurb*

Sun in Pisces-Mercury in Aries: These Pisceans have more courage, energy, and initiative as well as some inventive ability. They are surprisingly outspoken about their feelings.

Mercury in Capricorn

Like Mercury in Scorpio, those with Mercury in Capricorn have the ability to focus their minds for extended periods of time. They are patient and persevering. They can tend towards pessimism and are not idealists, but realists. They look for the practical, the tried and true. They are observing of their surroundings and little escapes their notice. Mercury in Capricorn is not gullible. This placement can be a big help for those who have a prominent Pisces or Neptune in their charts, as Mercury in Capricorn keeps one down to earth and less likely to be taken in by scams or deluded in some way. They are ones who think before they speak, and are not very talkative by nature. They can be shy and prefer only to converse with those whom they are close to. They like to apply any knowledge they have in a practical sense. Knowledge for the sake of knowledge is usually not of value to them. Knowledge is only important if it can be applied in some practical way. They can lack confidence in their knowledge and intellect, believing they do not know as much as others.

Pretty accurate, except for the shy part and I actually like knowledge for the sake of knowledge, at times(sag venus?).

Well I can be a strange mix - Aries Mercury, Pisces Mars, Taurus and Capricorn (T&C) ... if I get extremely frustrated and or mad - I can get like a bullet—red-hot, impulsive, and I go off ... I've been trying to control that part of me that gets heady, brash, bold and impetuous because others normally take a step back and my Taurus and Capricorn don't like that - I'd rather try to channel it into a more subtle response and/or just walk away from the madness type of thing which is more the T&C - I've been doing ok with the changes and seem to get better year by year. I just stay away from the drama and the stress and take care of myself. I have always been a great party buddy - lots of fun - ha - but I'm getting too old and wise for that anymore too! I have the memories!!!

So what is your Merc. and is it an accurate representation of how you communicate and express yourself to the world?

Why do some SIGNS miss the questions presented and don't fully respond? Is it "me" that only "gets it?" 😕

Thanks for this post! I love it!

Now for "me". My Mercury is in Pisces (duh!). I tend to THINK before I speak. I don't want to hurt others' feelings. Unless I am provoked or feel "cornered" (like a boxer). I CAN be sarcastic, but only choose to do so (like you when you show them your intelligence). You can tell how "intelligent" I tend to be when it comes to my above statement because I have so many pet peeves!! But I tend to control that by voicing my opinions as I will continue to do so. Yeah, there are TROLLS out there, but instead of dealing with them (or debating like you do) I tend to **click** delete them from my mind (out of sight/out of mind). I LOVE FB since it has an "unfriend" button, I LOVE my phone because I can "block" texts/calls, and I LOVE dxpnet because I can (click!) block someone (I have and I'll continue to do so). My Mercury in Pisces is the following:

You are an intuitive rather than a rational thinker. Psychology, mysticism, and religion are your natural interests. You also love poetry and music, tending to feel or sense with your mind the truth of a given situation. You are very sympathetic and have naturally compassionate understanding of people.

I have had dejavu as well as dreams that I myself have interpreted. I have a STRONG 6th sense and I can "read" people. No one seems to understand me and my love for music and dancing. I don't have to write it, but I love this so much it just enlightens my day (I listen to the radio when at work, but over the weekends, I don't listen to music; as that's MY choice). I tend to root for the "under dog" but know my limitations as I have to "turn off" my feelings; if not, I will get depressed. And I will NOT allow depression to touch my mind and my body. I am a VERY strong woman with a strong willpower!

I LOVE your topic! 🤗 cyber hug!

Love,

Eva

6th house Merc in Gemini - I think I'm a pretty good communicator and I love to talk, whether its via, text, or email or phone calls, it doesn't matter, Ill talk to ya - I can also get loud, especially if I get passionate about my subject, but I blame that on being raised with siblings and cousins, we all shouted over each other and when I'm super comfortable with people Ill revert back to that loud boisterous talk. I think I'm very good at writing my thoughts and communicating thru words. Also, animals love me and I love them. We communicate just fine.

VirgyMerc. I don't... really... express or communicate much...

Maybe in writing is good 😎 probs why more comfortable on here and not so much in RealWurld...

Can come across as an educated door mat with attitude. But it's not an accurate representation of who I am.

And just to be clear, I don't know what I'm talking about right now either.
