Those with Mercury conjunct Venus

Mercury conjunct Venus
You are charming and gracious, poetic in your self-expression, and usually very polite. This position brings refinement to the nature and an appreciation for the arts. You aim to balance and bring harmony to your world. You can be, at times, quite indecisive, as you tend to see everyone's point of view, and can see value in almost any perspective or opinion. You have a strong sense of fairness.

You are very agreeable and enjoy socializing. Some with this aspect are a little on the lazy side, preferring to socialize than work.

You might intellectualize or rationalize your feelings, perhaps thinking a little too much about love and relationship to the point that you lose touch with how you truly feel. You might be attracted to, or attract, intellectual sorts as partners. If this conjunction is challenged, you might frequently attract partners who are tricky or conniving.

Many of you are talented at writing and/or speaking. You thoroughly enjoy the written and spoken word, literature, wordplay, puns, and enlightening conversations. Many with Mercury conjunct Venus in their charts are downright eloquent.

While most people like you, your ability to tune in to the person with whom you are currently speaking to is so strong that you might be accused of being two-faced or superficial. You might also choose your words carefully in order to avoid conflict, and others might not know how you truly feel as a result.

You get along with most people and are usually willing to make compromises in relationships to maintain harmony. That doesn't mean you become a doormat for others, but you have a strong sense of fairness and do not offend others without just cause. Others are seldom threatened or intimidated by you, largely because of your affable nature and social grace. You are willing to listen to anyone's opinions and suggestions before making major decisions.

Direct competition may be uncomfortable for you, and you may feel more at ease working with a small group of people. Perhaps you enjoy public speaking or performing in the dramatic arts. Another possible source of satisfaction for you would be writing, because of your natural talent for expressing yourself well. You have an imaginative mind and are clever at cooking up schemes to improve your economic situation. It is not difficult for you to turn your many creative ideas into ready cash.

Others will usually support you in what you do because they can see that you exercise good judgment. They can believe in you and are glad to pitch in to help you succeed. Just be sure you don't ask anyone else to take risks you yourself wouldn't attempt. Actually, any chances that you take will be well considered and are probably not that risky after all.

In love relationships, you have a talent for communicating your needs and desires to your partner. You are attracted to people who share your artistic talents or at least an appreciation of the arts. The worst possible mate for you would be one who is socially uncouth. In sex you have a healthy open attitude and can discuss the subject rather easily with your partner. Verbal expression during sex can be very stimulating for you! A lover who doesn't communicate or who is quiet in bed may not be very satisfying for you in the long haul.

This describes some extroverted personality and I'm an introvert. But hey, my Merc is retrograde, just about to turn stationary direct.

I like writing, arts, science, beauty of the nature. Being alone thinking, and sometimes brainstorming with someone else. Socializing for the sake of it is a waste of time. No group mentality whatsoever.

Sorry one of my classes started before I got to expand on what my point of posting this was. Anyways:

How much of this rings true to you if you have this aspect? Being a water sign, it is expected for me to be naturally emotional in many instances. However, along with having that emotional connection, I desire an intellectual connection too. I was once talking to a Taurus who at first seemed very intriguing. However, as time progressed, he became more and more....routine I guess is the right word. "How are you" "Good hbu" etc. SO routine. Nothing interesting. It made me miss the way we used to speak and how we would have such in-depth conversations about music (we both loved music) and other things such as religion and humanity. It was so interesting. Once it lost that spark, I became disinterested. Not that I expected him to be interesting 24/7 but I desire a little substance in conversations to keep me interested. Maybe this is why I am so into air signs....

I too love literature and the arts. I enjoy writing and creating. For me it is like a form of expression where I can be fully expressive where in other parts of life I cannot. I am also not very combative and I like to see all sides and try to come to agreement as this description explains. People find it annoying sometimes, because for example, some of my friends hate each other. They expect me to take their side when in fact, I cannot. I like both of them. I think that there should be an agreement between them, and I have to see each side for what it is whether or not they like the other, I have to remain unbiased. I completely understand that they will not make concessions with one another, but I also should not have to choose which side to take when I am not involved in their issue whatsoever. I would like to support both of them, no matter their differences. I suppose this gets me into trouble since I am so objective.

I can be so indecisive! Not in love, but in other things. For example, I am one of the rare few who likes both Apple and Samsung....picking a phone is the most difficult thing, and sometimes I switch back and forth whether I am in contract or not. It's really insane. I do have trouble making decisions because I want to make the RIGHT one. I think about it almost too much before jumping into anything, but then once I decide I wonder to myself if it was the right choice or not.

@Undine I am the same way, yet not. It's kind of strange. I am an introvert yet when my ascendant takes over my personality, I am an extrovert. Bubbly and rambling endlessly. When my Virgo moon takes over, I am so self-aware to the point of strained silence. I am scared to say anything as to bore someone or to make them think I am weird...even though....I am weird. LOL. It's really hit or miss and depends on the day. I am the most tongue-tied when I am near someone whom I'm interested in. I want to say everything right, and I want to be interesting. So it puts so much pressure on me that I occasionally just stand there in dumbfounded silence. It's kind of hilarious.
