mercury is how you think and how you say it. it rules conversation, writing, curiosity, quick choices and the way you connect ideas. it shows if your mind runs fast or slow, straight or in circles. it never strays far from the sun, so it often sits in your sun sign or right next to it.
what the planets are
in astrology, each planet stands for a part of you — how you feel, think, love, act, grow. the sign it was in when you were born says how that part tends to act, and the house says where in your life it shows up. the fast ones speak about the personal, the slow ones about whole generations.
