Mercury tells us, as we know from Toolbox 2.3, a lot about how we communicate, learn, and think. It’s not just what we say, but how we say it; and how we hear, absorb and understand the messages coming from others.

Mercury in Air signs learns and communicates through making connections- in the case of Libra through bringing people together. If you have Mercury in Libra, your interest is stimulated through actual conversation and interaction with others- and you learn best in the company of others.

What has this got to do with anything? Mercury moves out of Virgo and into Libra today. He’s gathering up some speed and won’t be here long- just until October 25^th.

If you want to know more about Mercury in Libra, or how Libra thinks and learns, here’s something I prepared much earlier…

Doing it for yourself…

While Mercury is in Libra, take the opportunity to learn more about the part of your life that Libra rules by seeing it through the eyes and words and interactions with others.
