Mercury in Leo

14 August 1966, 21:03, Cleveland, OH, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Halle 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 Leo

You have a big heart, are honest, dramatic and ambitious. You like to make a good impression and are usually successful achieving this, because others find you a very attractive and interesting person. You often act quite noisily (if your Sun isn't in Virgo or Cancer), you make jokes and are highly articulate. You are fair and honest, but also pretty egoistic – you usually focus mainly on yourself. You are probably successful in movie, theatre and also in other similar artistic spheres. You also have a sense of finances, and can be successful in this area.

Mercury in 5th house

You are a very creative person, of dramatic character and vivid imagination, you also have good organizational or pedagogical skills. You do very well in artistic professions, in film, on stage and in show business; amidst directors and actors. Because of your energetic approach, convincing way of expression and popularity, you have good pedagogical skills.

Mercury conjunction Venus

You are usually a good-spirited person and have a pleasant nature, are sociable and talkative, you always find a way to express your creativity. You love children, animals, nature and art and often your work (or hobby) is connected to them. You are also skilled in household chores, especially those which are connected to handwork and systematization (e.g. organizing, tidying, putting things in order).

Mercury trine Saturn

You are usually active, enterprising and ambitious. You are decisive and know what you want, you also most often know how to find ways and paths to fulfill your goals as well. You understand hierarchy and respect authority. Reputation is important to you, you appreciate settled matters, tradition and history, are perceptive of novelties and new ways and paths. You always try to realize your ideas and plans and you often succeed in doing so, because besides persistency, you also have a good sense of time and course of things, of “right actions at the right time”.

Mercury inconjunct Ascendant

You are usually restless and sociable, you like moving. You have a curious nature, you are interested in news and gossip, you are everywhere where there is happening. You are constantly in action and often on the road (although merely on short trips). You calm down with difficulty and are not always patient. If things don't go fast enough or are not interesting enough and don't offer you the right challenge, you get tired of them and focus on something else. You like making acquaintances and businesses, yet they sometimes don't give you a satisfying result. You need to nurture better communication and cooperation with others, also calmness and persistence.
