Mercury in Libra

Here Mercury is in an air sign, hosted by Venus and Chiron. This is one of its relatively strong positions. In your thinking, aesthetic criteria usually prevail. You almost always evaluate any intellectual construct for aesthetic completeness, harmony, and beauty. You likely strive to achieve results through elegant maneuvers, and your thinking may be characterized by sophistication and refinement. As a rule, you rarely tackle issues head-on, instead employing slow but clever and elegant methods of thought. Moreover, you have a precise distinction between "for" and "against." This selection system stems from Chiron, the ruler of Libra. You probably clearly use criteria for selection and test work through experience, disregarding authorities. Most likely, you can judge fairly, while also being able to make necessary compromises. In the formation of the sign of Libra, Saturn plays a significant role (here it is in exaltation), as it is inclined towards systematization, making this position favorable for a scholar. Furthermore, Libra is associated with an alternative approach, meaning from another person's perspective, which is why in your thinking you always proceed from the opposite, starting from opposing positions or constructs. Most likely, you will choose and base your choices on what already exists. You may possess the ability to view any theory from different perspectives, from various angles. This often allows you to describe the same phenomenon in different ways, creating various intellectual constructs. You probably have a great fondness for comparing incoming information and theories with each other. Most often, you hold several opinions about the same subject, compare them, and make a choice. Apparently, you are skilled at developing compromise solutions, reconciling contradictory viewpoints; "synthetic theories" often arise for you, although this cannot be called synthesis in its pure form, as theories are taken in fairly large blocks. In this case, you are able to create constructs that, like "bridges," connect these blocks without contradicting them, or that specifically allocate a place for them within your systems. With a "malefic" Mercury in Libra, understanding all the contradictions that arise between people, you are capable of pitting them against each other and deriving benefit for yourself from this. Sometimes you are also inclined to compare other people's intelligence: "Who is smarter?", while understanding that this question in itself is absurd, as every person is unique. You can compare not only intelligence but also manners, behavior, and skills. This stems from a great need for feedback; it is important for you to know what others think and how they evaluate what people discuss with you. However, you do not have painful sensitivity; you simply need to know your partners' opinions to build further communication. Furthermore, you may have other negative traits: juggling concepts, legalistic nitpicking, the ability to evade responsibility, and justify betrayal. From a communication standpoint, you are very gentle, capable of speaking with refinement and sophistication, defending your point, and clearly articulating your concepts without offending anyone. However, your behavior may exhibit some mannerisms and affected diplomacy. You perfectly understand what and how a person will think, you can anticipate how they will behave, and based on this, you know how to structure communication, avoiding all sharp corners. You usually do not use words that your interlocutor could seize upon to start an argument. When in company, you try to choose vague phrasing so as not to offend or cause quarrels; you are capable of constructing ambiguous phrases that can be understood in two ways. You are often inclined to undertake peacekeeping activities, trying to reconcile everyone and find compromises.

The key words are: harmony, diplomacy, balance, social, tactful, appreciate, beauty, peace and harmony. Children born at this time are diplomats from God. They will not like conflict situations. Being true peacemakers, they will try to smooth out sharp angles in any situation, whether it concerns themselves or those around them. The desire for all parties to be satisfied with the decision taken forces them to look for weighty arguments - this way they can attract attention to the opposite point of view. Usually, these children carefully and tastefully choose their words, as they strive for peace and harmony and do not want to offend those around them. At first glance, it may seem that they do not know how to show firmness and cannot make decisions themselves. But it's not entirely true. They simply have a unique ability to evaluate both points of view. And they will rather go to a compromise than join any side. Teach the child to listen carefully to the voice of his inner "I" before making a decision and act according to what his own heart tells him. Also, help them understand that life may not always be peaceful and harmonious. They will indeed suffer, facing coarseness, hostility, and bad manners. Tell them that the world is not always bright and clear, and that often clouds gather above our heads. Explain to the child that, having experienced bad things, you learn to appreciate the good. This idea should appeal to him. You also need to help the child cope with a very serious problem - the habit of putting everything "on hold", the reason for which is probably his unwillingness to face unpleasant situations. All this ultimately comes down to one thing - he needs to learn to "take the bull by the horns", that is, do what is necessary when and where it is necessary.

Here they find an outlet for their creative abilities: they are inexhaustible in new ideas, which they embody with unchanged elegance and taste. And when guests come, they, like butterflies, flutter from one to another, not sparing anyone attention. When communicating with your child, be as diplomatic and tactful as possible, any roughness is excluded. Try to act together: offer your help or ask for his help. Such children will always prefer teamwork to individual work. And just the offer of your help will at least half of their stubbornness. On the other hand, working alone, especially if it doesn't require special intelligence or skill, will be a heavy punishment for them.
