Mercury in your birth chart
Mercury in Aquarius
The mind that breaks the mold
Mercury in Aquarius thinks differently by nature: where others see the rule, you see the exception and the alternative. Your mind is original, objective and conceptual — you reason through systems, patterns and ideas rather than feelings — and you're fascinated by what doesn't yet exist. You speak with independence, defend the unpopular if it seems true, and the opinion of the majority doesn't bend you. You have a gift for innovation and for seeing what's ahead. The challenge is coldness: from observing everything from above, you can disconnect from human nuance and mistake the different for the true. Reason needs warmth too.
You think outside the mold and see the future before anyone else.
Coming down from ideas to the human nuance logic can't see.
