MERCURY IN PISCES

The poet of the all placements. Mercury’s mental capacity swoons and sways in this sensitive sign. Here, one may excel at organizing vibrational levels of existence - and you see it in the charts of musicians, singers and artists who are drawn to express and evoke the less tangible realm. Jupiter finds its soulful home in Pisces, making these people gentle in their speech. Yet, Mercury is said to be in its FALL in this sign because it may struggle to put words to what they are intuiting. Their mental lives are so vast and dreamy, putting words to the fantasy denigrates its beauty or may come out sounding like gobbledegook. Instead, these people are concerned with the exchange of information that happens through vibes, knowing that people can talk and talk and not say anything at all - that real communication is how people make you feel. As it goes, since they are in touch with the endless implications of the subtle realm, the smaller details that its opposite sign Virgo obsesses over, can feel confining. Mercury in Pisces may prefer to abstract their intimations through art, metaphor or touch (there’s a lot of healing power in a Mercury in Pisces hands ! ). When their minds aren’t wandering, they are quite good listeners - taking in the more subtle undertones of what others are saying. They often feel great empathy and compassion, fluid enough to jump their imagination into another persons felt experience. It is important for a Mercury in Pisces to practice boundaries, or else everyone will want a piece of them. They may find themselves picking up other people mental states like a sponge. Pisces is also mutable sign and so Mercury might change its mind a lot here, and come off as flakey - they would rather just go with the flow and respond to the feeling in the moment. They can often follow a winding thread too far with their active imagination and check-out of reality. It may take extra effort to be discerning yet - overall, this is a highly creative placement with a psychic bent, born to explore the unfathomable mysteries of life.
