Mercury, the karaka of communication and wisdom according to
Hindu Astrology. Mercury is the ruler of that fragment of mind that can decide,
differentiate, and reason, the faculty that controls the subconscious thoughts
and conscious actions and power of discrimination. Its influence is strong.
Controlling travel, finance, logic, and education, Mercury can take you places
if positioned strong in a horoscope. It can make you a nonsense wreck or
sagaciously sensible.
Mercury is responsible for how you express yourself to the
outer world, how you handle stresses and tackle unfortunate choices in life.
Though we are like buildings built brick by brick, it is Mercury that helps
present ourselves in the fullest form. Mercury is the associated with 4th
house, representing relatives and friends, 2nd house representing speech and 10th
house representing profession.
Planetary Configuration
It’s difficult to foretell Mercury’s influence as it turns
retrograde almost three times in a year. It is changeable in nature and rarely
casts an intense influence alone. It influences upon a horoscope together with
the power of other planets. It is malefic with malefic planets and beneficial
with benefic planets. Mercury is the tiniest planets of the solar system. It is
closest to the Sun and shares a friendly bond with the mighty planet. It is friends
with Venus and neutral towards Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Moon is an enemy of
Mercury as per Hindu Astrology. It is the ruling planet of Gemini and Virgo,
thus you would often observe that both are intellectual signs. Mercury is
exalted in Virgo and debilitated in Pisces.
