Mercury in Cancer

29 July 1981, 10:30, Oviedo, Spain

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Fernando 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 11th house

You are an intelligent, dynamic, open and sociable person. You like working in groups, socializing, you like being included and being a member, you like clubs and organizations. You associate with manifold people, you are usually completely without prejudice. Among other things, you are interested in engineering, science and computer science, also in humanitarian work and problems of mankind as a whole.

Mercury trine Uranus

You are fast, clever, original and inventive, often intelligent above average. You are skillful, active, flexible and are constantly doing something. You are always creating something, constantly improving and educating, always discovering new paths and ways, always looking into the future. You are altruistic, you try to improve the world and can also receive positive feedback, because of your good ideas which you often successfully present to others and others are willing to follow or at least help you on your path and with your efforts, although – because you are often simply “a bit ahead of time” – you are not always understood right away.

Mercury inconjunct Neptune

You have vivid imagination and strong intuition, but because you are sensitive (also to critique and opinions of others), you often withdraw into your dream world and solitude and take on the role of victim, instead of managing to use these potentials and to fulfill many of your plans, which because of this often fall through. Invest energy into something creative and not into running from reality, because you often have a talent for artistic and similar areas.

Mercury square Pluto

You are intensive and impetuous, you have a lot of energy, but you often don't know what to do with it and therefor can act irritably, argumentatively or even violently, especially verbally. You have an ambitious and combative, usually also very competitive character. You are a perspicacious person and not too patient and also not always the most tactful. Because of these characteristics, you can be difficult to other people and have problems in relationships. You are not too adaptable and don't like making compromises, that is also your test, because you need to nurture this.
