A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Nathalie 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.
