26 June 1993, 21:16, Boca Raton, FL, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Ariana as “you”.

Besides the Sun and the Moon there are four planets that are very important for personal horoscope analysis and define individual parts of your personality: Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter.

Mercury is the planet, nearest to the Sun and it travels the fastest. That is why it is a very important personal planet, which influences communication, education, relationships, skillfulness and resourcefulness. Mercury also symbolizes transport and travels, especially short ones.

The position of Mercury in personal horoscope tells us how you think, how you communicate with the outer world and generally describes all the things that occupy your mind.

Mercury in Cancer

You are a very sensitive and daydreaming person with vivid imagination and an unusual sense of humor. You have a very good memory. Other people influence you easily, because you are susceptible to external influences that you absorb like a sponge. Your thinking, your conclusions and decisions usually have a sentimental tone. You are probably interested in history, ethnology, art, poetry and similar areas. A lot of your energy is focused on home, family and your loved ones. You are very successful in artistic professions and professions with a social note.

Mercury in 7th house

You are a very sociable person and you actually fell that something is missing, if you are not in company. You have a very nice, well-mannered and attractive character. You often have the most different relationships (also love relationships). Sometimes, Mercury in such position also indicates that you have a younger partner or a partner from a different environment or one with more flexible values and who follows the same relationship models as you.

Mercury inconjunct Saturn

You are usually reserved, shy and often untrusting. You value knowledge and respect true authorities, although you perhaps in general don't have the best opinion of the latter. You are often torn between novelties, progress and connecting on one hand and a more conservative outlook, history and tradition on the other.

Mercury opposition Uranus

You have exceptional intellectual abilities and you are usually intelligent and capable of abstract thinking, however, you do sometimes sort of distance yourself from others and lose contact with the world and reality. Because of your multifacetedness and exceptional width, those around you often don't understand you or you are sort of “before your time”. Because you don't always have the right feedback, since others can't always keep up with you, you then withdraw into your own world even more and distance yourself from others and can be caught in a vicious circle. You need to find the right way to express your inventive and original ideas, so you can be useful also to others, although not always at that particular time.:)

Mercury trine Pluto

You are perspicacious, decisive and have exceptional thinking abilities. You have an intuitive character and are a natural psychologist. You quickly realize the essence and you quickly judge situations and in them, react quickly and well. You are factual and realistic, are good in making arguments, that is why you are persuasive and often have a strong influence on others, who value you and trust your opinion and judgments. You have a good ability (mostly of mental) renewal, you are fast, flexible, fluent and coordinated in action and movement. You have numerous plans and goals and also the will and ability to fulfill them.

Mercury opposition Ascendant

You are dynamic, restless, always active and in motion, mentally and physically. You are prone to being nervous and can be moody, changeable, distant and slapdash, also too fast and too quick, jerky and inarticulate. You like being surrounded by people and you move in places, where there is happening, but you aren't always the most sociable and approachable person; you often avoid more in-depth contacts. Sometimes you have difficulty expressing yourself, because you can't articulate your scattered thoughts and often also have some speech impediment (e.g. stuttering).
