Mercury in your birth chart
Mercury in Sagittarius
Thinking on a grand scale
Mercury in Sagittarius thinks wide: you look for meaning, the idea that encompasses, the whole picture. Your mind is philosophical and optimistic, it learns by traveling, exploring cultures and beliefs, and grows bored with fine detail. You speak with candor and enthusiasm, tell your truth unfiltered and spread the hunger to know more. You have a gift for inspiring and for linking big ideas. The challenge is accuracy: in your eagerness to grasp the whole, you exaggerate, generalize or over-promise, and sometimes honest truth arrives without tact. Wisdom also lives in the detail and the measured word.
You seek the broad meaning and spread the hunger to learn and explore.
Minding the detail and telling the truth without losing your tact.
