Mercury Conjunction Venus

Mercury conjunction: It is not only the absence of thought that causes anxiety, but in many cases its very presence. Mercury imparts a strong mental coloring to the planet it conjuncts, even when this is entirely unnecessary or undesirable for the individual; for example, when Mercury conjuncts Venus in matters of love, there will be so much calculation and common sense that any immediate feeling or living sensation will be short-lived, especially if Mercury is stronger than Venus. Unfortunately, mental coloring is not synonymous with intelligence, as it most often reduces to commonplace, superficial notions and clichés of collective consciousness and the subconscious, which will actively influence the planet’s principle, strongly schematizing and profaning it. The person will, of course, feel this, but all attempts to free the planet’s principle from such a deadening (each time in its own way) Mercurial influence by expanding the sphere of its expression—for example, by seeking new lovers in the case of Venus—are doomed to failure, since the mind, though crude, is flexible and can adapt or somehow model any phenomenon. Working through the conjunction begins first and foremost with working through Mercury, that is, with recognizing the role and meaning of mental activity as providing a general direction for energy flows and planetary principles without replacing them. This work is difficult because it requires a restructuring of thinking, a rejection of rigid, linear social clichés, and a shift toward working with lighter, more flexible thought-forms capable of adequate interaction with the planet’s principle. For example, a Mercury-Mars conjunction with a strong Mercury at a low level of integration produces not a person but practically a robot who must mentally model every active action before acting, utterly unable to trust the feeling and logic of immediate energetic expression. Working through the aspect grants great creative abilities, manifesting as subtle and inventive indirect mental management of the planet’s principle at moments when it is necessary. Venus conjunction: One can benefit society only after first separating oneself from it. A conjunction with Venus gives the planet’s principle strong social and aesthetic emphasis; at a low level, in the spheres governed by the planet, this person will be aesthetically capricious and socially determined. Public opinion and the principle of “what people do” will be very significant for them, and freeing the planet’s principle from the influence of social clichés will be difficult, which can sometimes lead to laughable dogmatism and absurd, unpredictable effects when attempting to apply social stereotypes in completely unsuitable situations—this being how (at this level) the creative hand of the Absolute manifests. Another feature of Venus’s influence on a planet it conjuncts is the emphasis on love, not necessarily erotic. Working through the aspect grants divine light to any expression of the planet; at a low level, the person does not perceive the planet’s expressions unless a considerable amount of directed love or social attention is directed toward them, even though (karmically) they should not so much receive as radiate love in the appropriate situations. For example, a child with Venus conjunct Saturn can be made to study or focus only through kindness, affection, gentle persuasion, and so on, but never through coercion; yet ridicule in society will make them literally curl up in a corner and sob. At a low level, Venus relaxes the planet, turning the person in the relevant areas into a social parasite and a refined egoist, but with integration, egoism gives way to service to others; for example, a Venus-Moon conjunction may produce a glutton and gourmand who cares only for their own stomach, but with integration, a wonderful chef who presents their dishes as if for an art exhibition; the same applies to their sexual life.

This aspect indicates a synthesis of intellectual and communication abilities with the principle of love and a sense of harmony. At any given moment, such a person is capable of speaking and acting with perfect precision. They are charming, graceful, and possess a wonderful character and rare charm. Such a person not only possesses numerous artistic talents but is also able to independently discover and express them. Musical ability, a talent for mathematics, and a penchant for skillful trade are undoubtedly present. Such individuals are often highly sensual. This aspect indicates refinement in oral and written communication, as well as delicacy and diplomacy in communication. The voice is usually soft and melodic. There is a rare gift for enjoying the mere presence of others. Considerable talent in literature and poetry is possible. Such individuals often earn their living from royalties. Partnerships with such individuals are always aesthetically pleasing. There is a penchant for scientific pursuits, particularly due to a clear understanding of the nature of connections and relationships between phenomena. The mental activity of such a person is aimed at achieving a specific result; in any case, they never forget their own benefit. Such people often radiate currents of beauty and harmony, which allows them to improve the health of those around them. They easily and freely bestow energies of benevolence and sympathy on everyone.

Your child has charm, a soft and melodic voice, and the ability to "feel" the thoughts of others. Most often, they speak correctly, but may become emotionally agitated if others do not grasp the depth and flow of their ideas. They have talents in literature, poetry, science, and mathematics. They may be able to reveal and express their gifts in art if their parents support them in this. For example, if the child has a melodic voice, encourage them to read aloud expressively.

At conjunction, there is a combination of the rational and emotional: one cannot do without the other at this time. Feelings have a strong impact on reasoning - and vice versa. Therefore, in arguments and conclusions, sympathies and antipathies are often present, and inclinations and desires may be subject to logic.

Exquisite style in speech and writing, soft, melodic voice; aptitude for literature and poetry. They radiate beauty and harmony, and can often help improve the psychological and physical well-being of those around them. Passionate temperament, often causing great difficulties.
