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

Mercury inconjunct Pluto
You are usually intelligent and insightful, you intuitively perceive the essence of the situation, but despite this you don't act and judge best in these situations, because you too often make conclusions based only on yourself and don't consider other circumstances and don't always adapt to them well. Although you have a lot of thinking energy and a perspicacious nature, you often don't distinguish between what is important and what is useless, so you can be inspecting some completely meaningless and unnecessary things, as if under a microscope.

You like making acquaintances and businesses, but you don't always have the luckiest hand at choosing both; it happens that you invest a lot of energy, time and even money into something and it later proves to be a sort of “dead end” or it stands on weak foundations. You need to nurture better communication and cooperation with others, especially in business.
