8 October 1949, 18:15, New York City, NY, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Sigourney 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 6th house

You are a very methodical and organized person who is universally engaged, enterprising, hard-working and efficient. You are probably interested in literature and writing and are very talented in these areas. Perhaps you also work in profession, connected to health and medicine, you are also interested in science. You are usually creatively active in two (or even more) completely different areas.

Mercury in domicile

You are usually skilled in businesses of Mercury; communication, commerce, writing, speech, etc. You are fast, agile, resourceful and adaptable, also devious and cunning. As a rule, you have a gift of articulation and so have good rhetorical skills, you also pass on your knowledge in a quality and interesting way. You are intelligent and funny, you like novelties and constant happening and you love travelling. You are always somehow on the road, you are interested in everything and you learn something new out of every situation, which is beneficial for you in the future.

Mercury square Uranus

You are a very restless person and practically have a constantly active mind; you are extremely intelligent and have endless mind potentials, which you try to take advantage of, but are not always successful, since you act too quickly and slapdash because of your multi-layerness. You are interested in everything, you want to get to all the dimensions of everything. You are very original and inventive, fast and agile, others often follow you and don't always understand you; sometimes you are perceived and seen as being freaky or even eccentric. You can usefully direct the abundance of your intellectual energy to education and science.

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.
