Mercury in the signs - Virgo

Objective and analytical thinkers

Mercury is at home in the sign of Virgo and someone with this placement is able to hold large amounts of information and convey them in a precise and accurate manner – always aiming to use the right vocabulary for what is being discussed. This is a highly analytical placement and in particular in this sign, problems are understood and analysed quickly and thoroughly with a practical solution as the outcome. Virgo is a mutable sign so someone with this placement often has a good memory that connects several layers and dimensions with ease – although it’s an earth sign, Mercury in Virgo is nevertheless the most flexible of the three (Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo).

Mercury is not just what we talk about, it’s also what we think (and write!)about. Virgo is the sign, and associated with the house, that rules conflict, arguments, health, medicine, pharmaceuticals, nutrition, small pets, being of service and helping others as well as re-establishment of balance – often this is what Mercury in Virgo tends to think about.

This is an intellectual sign and at times highly strung sign that does not always have the patience for those that don’t follow even the most basic of concepts. The intolerance is not necessarily directed at those that aren’t quick enough (this would be Mercury in Aries) but at those that don’t place any importance on overly detailed explanations and thought processes. Therefore, you will be hard pressed to find someone with Mercury in Virgo turning up to a meeting ill-prepared.

Bohomoth














She not only has her Mercury in Virgo but also her Sun (meaning she truly embodies the Virgo principles) as well as Uranus and Pluto. In the 8th house, she may find that changes in nutrition are therapeutic for her.
