Part 1 of 2

What does Mercury mean?

MercuryMercury Enters Sagittarius

Mercury rules speech, thinking and short trips. It shapes how you sort things, explain them, bargain and link ideas through an ordinary day. In your chart, Mercury shows how fast your mind moves and whether you'd rather write or talk. It also shows where your curiosity switches on, the second a conversation or a book opens the right door.

Part 2 of 2

What does Sagittarius mean?

SagittariusMercury Enters Sagittarius

Sagittarius pushes the horizon out. Travel, meaning and belief are its themes, the reasons to get up in the morning. It wants to understand how the world fits together and will happily leave a country, a philosophy or a habit behind to find out. Where Sagittarius is active, a vision grows that's larger than everyday life.

Together this means
