28 October 1974, 12:00, San Juan, Philippines
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Joaquin 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 Libra
You feel best in a calm environment. You are attracted to beauty, aesthetics, also ethics, morals and law. You always strive for balance, you judge things fairly and always take both sides into consideration. You usually act mildly and diplomatically (if, for example, Scorpio is not too strong; or if the Sun or Venus are in this sign). In discussions and debates you act rationally and usually avoid tumultuous, wild and even aggressive environments. The negative side of this position is your indecisiveness, especially in your actions and with accepting responsibility.
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 conjunction Venus

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 conjunction Mars
You are usually am impetuous, passionate person of restless spirit, you are always active and you love speed. You think and react quickly; you are constantly in action, with body and mind. You are usually also very talkative, your tongue is sometimes faster than your thought, that is why you need to nurture tolerance, patience and calmness, because you can hurt others with your ways and so can sometimes have problems communicating with others.
Mercury conjunction Uranus
Such aspect is often found with innovators and geniuses. You are usually an intelligent, original and ingenious person and often have exceptional mental abilities. You are constantly in action, you perceive everything, you react strongly and sometimes also dramatically to all stimuli. Sometimes other people have difficulty keeping up with you and often don't understand you. You have a restless spirit and often a very sensitive nervous system.
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.
