A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Jerry 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 Scorpio

You are an intensive and perspicacious person, capable of quick judgment and quick (relentless) judgments and conclusion. You have a mistrusting and suspicious personality, you think a bit feverishly, you are meticulous and usually always guess or figure out the real meaning or the hidden background of things. You often work as detective, explorer, scientist and also surgeon.

Mercury in 9th house

You are an enthusiastic person, always learning and questioning, you are interested in travels (over the world) and have true cosmopolitan views. You are always doing something, always studying, you are always interested in something new, you have an eternally young spirit and fresh ideas. You are also interested in philosophy, psychology, religion and similar areas. You probably have strong connections to foreign countries.

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 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 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.

Mercury square Ascendant

You are restless, nervous and always active; both intellectually and literally you are constantly in motion, but it is not always fluent and flexible. You can have a moody and dispersed, also too quick and jerky nature. You love company and are always in the midst of the happening, but you are also not always the most sociable and accessible person, you also often avoid more in-depth contacts. You sometimes have problems expressing yourself, usually because of numerous baffling thoughts and then you can't express your point. It is advisable that you write (or create in similar areas), even if merely for yourself, so that you can “pour your thoughts onto paper” and learn to articulate your thoughts, also make a selection between useful and useless information.
