You’re a list maker, and you’re likely quite involved in/with your community. You can be very talkative when you have the chance. Quick to learn, you are swift to share what you know with others. You are also very easily distracted and your attention span can be quite short. Your interests are many and varied, sometimes to the point that you barely skim the surface of any one topic.

You are generally very interested in reading, teaching, speaking, exchanging ideas, keeping current with the daily news, and perhaps gossiping. This is an especially curious and inquisitive position for Mercury. Sensual stimuli is more relevant to you than abstract concepts. You can be quite one-track minded at times, not very happy with multi-tasking, and often quite fixed in your opinions. Studies are similar–you need to work at your own pace. You don’t like to be put on the spot or pushed into talking or coming to a conclusion. You have a very practical mind and intelligence, seeing the obvious, most logical answer to any predicament often well before others.

Your first reaction to new stimuli is logical and curious rather than emotional. In fact, you treat most new endeavors with curiosity and great interest.


Lively and interesting, you quickly adapt to new situations. You have a mischievous and even precocious manner. While you enjoy talking, you might often monopolize the conversation or fail to listen (you might be too busy thinking about what you will say next to truly listen). You’re restless, adaptable, changeable, easily distracted, versatile, and nimble. You are mercurial in appearance or manner, especially if Mercury is close to (within 10 degrees of) the Ascendant.
