Mercury sextile Neptune

When Mercury sextiles Neptune you step into a different world / a different realm of reality / an alternative state of being. You experience Life differently -- without even trying. Your work & your words themselves are comforting, soothing, healing, restorative on levels you can't reach with anything that comes in a bottle. Your imagination & spiritual ideals shape your perspective & help you do the right thing at the right time..

You & others gain from your compassion, sensitivity, spiritual insights, gestures, thoughts & actions. This energy promotes your intuition, psychic skills, spidey-sense & profound connections to the realms of impressions & "knowing without evidence." You gain messages from everyday living. You see synchronicities everywhere.

Mercury in Astrology: Basic Stuff | Quick Notes on Mercury

Even entertainment becomes "meaningful." You see the "reasons" behind events. You see themes, statements, characters & situations that carry messages, contacts, answers & profound meanings that "are always there" but you've become more aware, more receptive, more connected with Spirit -- & so you see these differently. Listen to music / follow your spiritual practices / write / journal / fantasize / read with more awareness.

This energy is good for soothing your mind / generating creative ideas / communicating with compassion / following spiritual pursuits & practices / taking up metaphysical studies. Your words are inspiring / soothing / comforting / healing / enlightened / "just what is needed." This may gain you a wider audience / people who can learn from your example. It will also benefit your relationships -- all kinds on all levels.

Your senses are keen & so is your intuition. You are more aware, more alert, even if outwardly you're less animated / less active / "calmer." All this provides invaluable channels for you to receive an extraordinary amount of useful information. For now, be a vessel.

Everyday Astrology gives a comment and interpretation on some current Astrological event -- or a micro-lesson on some element in Astrology that can help you understand how it all fits together as you learn more about this fabulous metaphysical discipline -- and how it may have surprising value for you!

When You Know Your Own Mind -- Mercury's role in your horoscope ---> What does your Mercury tell? ---> As you investigate Astrology & harvest the wisdom it offers on the human experience, you move from the ubiquitous information on Sun and Sun Sign energy ... into the misty & mysterious realms of the Moon and its meaning. From there, you meet Mercury -- the symbol of the mind, the consciousness, the intellect. It's the most distinctive feature that separates humankind from Life's other sentient beings.

Sciency Stuff About Mercury -- Fun things to know -- about Mercury the planet ---> All in a day's work ---> * In our Solar System, Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. Because of this proximity it is not easy to see except at twilight. Mercury also orbits the Sun so quickly, early astronomers believed it was actually two different stars -- one which appeared in the morning and another in the evening. * A year on Mercury is only 88 days. (This is the time it takes Mercury to circle the Sun once.)

* Mercury in Your Natal Chart -- Fore, Aft and Center ---> Yellow is a Mercury color! ---> Metaphor for the mind ---> Mercury, named for the Roman god of commerce, communication and messages, has come to symbolize in Astrology, the way a Native employs his mind, wit, charm, and intellect.

* What Does Mercury Represent -- in Your Natal Chart? -- What is it ... and why is it important? ---> In mythology, Mercury was the winged messenger of the Gods. ---> Your mind -- at work and play ---> In Astrology, Mercury represents your conscious, rational mind. It tells a lot about your intellectual self; your ability to study, learn, analyze, communicate and work with information. Mercury depicts your capacity to form ideas and opinions, the way you deal with facts, and the way you process data.

* Mercury -- Ruler of Gemini -- Ruler of Virgo ---> Yellow is a Mercury color! ---> The metaphor for your mind ---> Mercury, quick, intense, lively and highly mobile -- racing its way around the Sun faster than any of the other known planets, is the astrological metaphor which symbolizes an individual's mental and communications skills, the intellectual components of his personality, the inner self that deals with physical movement, informational exchange, discrimination, learning and analysis.

* Mercury: Symbol of Your Intellectual Self ---> Yellow is a Mercury color ---> Your mind, intellectual energy & assets ---> Mercury in Astrology is the symbol for your conscious mind with its amazing array of accessories and gifts. That's the short answer to the question, "What does Mercury represent?" ... because the Sun, Moon & all the known planets have distinct meanings in Astrology. But like most quick short answers, this one is incomplete. Mercury doesn't just symbolize your mind ....

* My Notes About Mercury -- A comprehensive list -- of random things about Mercury -- in no particular order ---> Yellow is a Mercury color!! ---> The symbol of your mind ... your intellect ---> * Mercury is Astrology's symbol for your intellect, your conscious mind. It's that wondrous, mysterious part of you that deals in sensory messages -- the experience and meaning you get from the things you see, hear, taste, touch and smell.

* Mercury in General -- What Mercury in Astrology Means -- Your Inner Selves of Learning and Work ---> Learning stuff, using your mind and putting it to work ---> Like Venus, your Mercury energy describes two inner selves. One manages your mind and all its talents; the other is in charge of the work you do ... the ways you use your skills and abilities to help others and build the kind of life your want for yourself.
