Meet Mercury at the Crossroads of Life
Part 5
by Nancy R. Fenn

Page: 1 2 3 4 5

Peter The Great Was A Quintessential Gemini/Sagittarius Person

An example of a quintessential Gemini/Sagittarius individual is the Russian Tsar, Peter the Great. Peter the Great had his Sun and Mercury in Gemini in the 3rd house opposite his Moon in Sagittarius.

Peter was a genius and master of many trades. He was an innovator and facilitator. He traveled to and borrowed from various countries in Europe, bringing back the best of England, France, the Netherlands and Italy. He consolidated Russian territory, created the Russian Navy, dredged the city of St. Petersburg from the swamps and introduced new styles of dress and customs to his people. He was "ahead of his times".

The flexibility and open mindedness of someone like Peter the Great are characteristic of the "crossroads" energy ruled by Mercury. In a manner of speaking, Peter the Great visited everywhere and took the best of everything. His open mindedness and flexibility were winning qualities and they are "crossroads" qualities.

Peter had both Gemini and Sagittarius qualities. A typical Gemini trait was his interest in "curiosities". At a time when many rulers created museums to preserve freaks and oddities of nature, Peter was no exception. You can still visit his museum in St. Petersburg today. Peter was a Sagittarius in his love of everything "foreign" and in his mastery of many different interests.

Mercury Is The God Of Borders

Mercury is also the god of borders. Living in Southern California, our population is a mix of Caucasian, Arab, Mexican, African-American, Oriental and Island people. I can't say that we get along easily all the time, but we do get along. Hopefully Southern California gets the best of all these cultures and wins. When I leave California I miss the stimulation of border/crossroads energy. If I go someplace homogenous like a town in the midwest, I find it fascinating by contrast. The upheaval and change that occurs when 7 different cultures "collide" has its special challenges and gifts and a homogenous culture has its stability.

Mercury Reminds Us: When You Stand At The Crossroads Of Life, Keep An Open Mind

Mercury is also the god of symbolic crossroads. This reminds us how important it is to be open minded when we stand at a crossroads in life. Mercury reminds us that keeping our minds open to as many choices as possible is the best way to face the unknown.

NOTE: Rasputin was a colorful character on the stage of history, perhaps having as much to do with the fall of the monarchy in Europe (Russia) as any other factor due to his critical influence on the family of Tsar Nicholas II. His name in Russian means "crossroads" and is as common as "Smith" in English. Read more on Rasputin
