Mercury in the 3rd House

I've been waiting to tell you this one. When mercury — your mind and your mouth — how you think and speak — lands in your 3rd house, the house of your words, your neighbors, your short trips, the two start talking to each other. Here's what they tend to say.

What it means

The 3rd house governs your words, your neighbors, your short trips. With mercury sitting there, your mind and your mouth pours its energy straight into that part of your life. It colors everything the house touches, for your whole life.

The gift

Every placement gives something. This one gives you a natural fluency in matters of your words, your neighbors, your short trips — other people study it; you live it.

The work

The thing you keep putting off? Start with ten minutes.

Bye for now — Maxie
