What’s The Importance of Mercury in Astrology?
Mercury rules two zodiac signs - Gemini and Virgo
Mercury is exalted in Virgo.
Mercury is debilitated in Pisces.
Mercury rules over communication, speech, expressions, or how you express your inner thoughts and emotions. Mercury affects your judgment, your behavior, and your intellect. Mercury is the Karak planet of Intelligence. People with positive and strong Mercury in their birth charts are often seen as highly intellectuals and scholars with extremely high grasping and retaining power. They are bright in their studies and knowledgeable in every sector they are interested in.
Additionally, Mercury also gives a person strong business and trade acumen, and they are good with math and logic. Mercury is considered a conditional benefic planet. It means that it depends on the condition of Mercury in the birth chart and whether it will give positive results or negative results.
If Mercury is in conjunction with or afflicted by benefic planets, or if Mercury is sitting in friendly sign and not combust or in retrogression, then it will surely give positive results. But if Mercury is in conjunction with malefic planets like Rahu, Ketu, or Mars, or if it is sitting in an inimical sign or is combust or in retrogression, then it will give negative results.
For instance, Mercury makes a person good at communication and gives them the ability to speak. If Mercury is in a positive sign, a person will speak and communicate positively, like a motivational speaker. If Mercury is not under a positive affliction or sign, then Mercury will make a person a chatterbox and will make them gossip all the time.
*Note - The above Mercury Progressive in Scorpio 2024 predictions are based on general astrological readings. Remember, everyone’s journey is unique, and therefore, the outcomes may vary depending on their birth charts.
