Mercury in Libra

29 September 1936, 05:40, Milan, Italy

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Silvio 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 1st house

You are successful in commerce, marketing, writing, publishing, etc. You are resourceful, skillful and clever, you are always on the lookout for new possibilities and also use these possibilities very well. You are interested in science, medicine, literature, architecture, etc. You are a sociable, easy-going and restless person.

Mercury inconjunct Uranus

You are usually a clever person and have a very active mind, but sometimes you find it difficult to find the appropriate ways to exploit this potential. Perhaps you are completely enthusiastic about something and invest all your energy into it or your interest is slapdash and dispersed to many areas. You often “search for yourself” and don't find true interest and work “a little bit here, a little bit there”. You sometimes feel misunderstood and because of it, different from other people and although you are sociable, you don't fit in at once and in every company.
