Mercury Square Jupiter

Mercury Square: If a thought occurs to the mind but isn't expressed verbally, it means it wasn't properly invited. Mercury Square creates significant difficulties for a person in the interaction of the Planet's principle with rational thinking and speech. Here, the interpretation depends on which planet is stronger in the square. If Mercury predominates, then in circumstances related to the Planet, the person's own (and sometimes others') thoughts and considerations regarding it will seem unusually important and intelligent, although more often than not, they will greatly distort the Planetary principle, as the person doesn't understand much of it (rationally), although some of their thoughts may be truly profound. If a planet is stronger in the square, then thinking as a whole will be under its disharmonious influence, i.e., distorted, profaned, narrowed, etc., in accordance with the houses and signs where Mercury and the planet are located: the house occupied by the planet will have a disproportionately strong influence on the house occupied by Mercury (and on Mercury itself), and the style of the sign occupied by the planet will unceremoniously interfere with the style of the sign occupied by Mercury, partially suppressing it. In general, a Mercury square is characterized by a strong mental interest in the planet's problems and spheres of influence and an initially distorted mind, characterized by a fragmented vision and understanding of the essence of the matter, sometimes precise and profound, but mostly unsatisfactory, which the person himself finds very difficult to believe, even after a series of obvious failures and setbacks. The level of this aspect's development is clearly evident in the quality of speech when a person discusses planetary issues (if they speak relatively calmly, i.e., on Mercury, not Mars). At a low level of Mercury square development, a person is often inclined to lecture (preach) to others, asserting themselves at their expense, but without truly understanding the subject they are discussing. This requires systematic work to fill the gaps in mental perception of the planetary principle and to renounce direct mental pressure on it, accompanied by crude profanation (as well as a tendency toward speculation). Next, one must learn to overcome one's unnatural dullness, which manifests itself when attempting to understand something new about the planet (the subconscious's protest can be very sharp, even leading to severe depression and an inability to read text), and to resist emotional outbursts that resist the development of rational thinking, remembering that Mercury square is potentially an aspect for people who are intelligent and deeply understand the planetary principle. Jupiter Square: True greatness requires measurement, not proof. Jupiter Square promises the Planet much... unfortunately, it often ends with these promises. In the spheres governed by the Planet, a person senses their greatness, not only potential but also actual, but those around them typically fail to see the latter or question it, while the former somehow fails to manifest. Jupiter Square brings expansion to the Planet, but not in the way the person desires: either in the wrong direction, in a style alien to it, or not at all what the person desires; at least, that's how it seems to the person. This square (it can be called the aspect of Lucifer) brings the temptation of pride, superficiality, and the too-easy acquisition of something not quite what the person desires, and certainly not what they need for evolutionary development. In the Planetary realms, a person is characterized by a constant, superficial interest in "higher matters," philosophical generalizations, and abstract religious approaches. However, this interest tends to stop at the very point where something truly important and interesting begins, not in the form of a luxurious Jupiterian gift, but requiring minimal, focused effort. For example, a Venus-Jupiter square with an accentuated Jupiter can produce a person who attracts a great deal of love, appears beautiful, interesting, and unusual at first glance, but in a specific love relationship, proves completely self-absorbed, filled with their own beauty and overall magnificence, and completely incapable (and unwilling) to cast even a fleeting glance at their partner. This results in a feeling of complete loneliness and hopelessness in terms of social (not to mention emotional and sexual) contacts, but does not diminish their self-esteem. Karmically, this aspect requires (in the Planetary realms) learning to treat gifts and opening doors of fate with extreme caution and care, understanding that they require further work and are ultimately intended for the world, not the individual themselves. At a low level, a person in the corresponding realms is inclined (if even remotely possible) to play the role of a generous benefactor, a role they are exceptionally poor at, as their self-interest and the inadequacy or uselessness of their benefactions are clearly visible, while their general clumsiness evokes more irritation than pity or gratitude (the latter will likely greatly disturb the individual). Working through this aspect grants the rare karmically correct ability to manage one's good fortune and, by rejecting false opportunities and temptations, receive the priceless gift of true help on the spiritual path. This also includes insight into similar problems in others and the ability (in the Planetary realms) to guide others onto the true path by revealing the karmic role of their temptations and allurements, especially personal arrogance and pride.

This person likes to be in charge and first everywhere and always. At the same time, they expect too much from others and try to shirk personal responsibility. They are typical adventurers, adept at bluffing big. Education is of great importance to them, but it is often interrupted, temporarily or permanently. They are inquisitive and impulsive, their plans and intentions always outweighing their practical actions and concrete results. They have difficulty understanding themselves and achieving order and clarity in their beliefs and life positions. Their philosophy is chaotic and incoherent, leading many to consider them unreliable and unreliable. This also hinders their communication with others. However, with a basic desire to discipline themselves, they can easily overcome all problems. This aspect is favorable for politics, law, literature, education, and social activities. There is a tendency toward silly arguments and empty discussions, fraught with nothing but trouble. Weak judgment, unstable opinions, precarious assessments, and a generally bad character are noted. This person is prone to prejudice and superstition, superficiality, and hasty conclusions. They often lack their own point of view and readily accept the position of others, even if it is clearly negative. Such people are often atheists and easily run afoul of the law. Their thoughts are clearly divorced from reality, and the implementation of plans and ideas is hampered by a lack of thoughtfulness, balance, and practicality. Such a person always promises much more than they can deliver. A conflict between the mind and the heart is evident. Ambition and egoism are present in an overt manner. At the same time, this person is very generous, sincerely striving to be guided by the best of intentions. They lack organization, consistency, systematicity, and common sense.

They are overly ambitious in their ideas, which are impossible to implement and which, moreover, are not thought through in detail, unless Saturn is strong. They lack organization, balance, and practical sense. They are impetuous and hasty in great plans, promising more than they deliver. They take on projects they are not yet ready for. They are unrealistically optimistic, believing that they can handle anything and that the sea is knee-deep. Often, the mind and heart conflict over matters of philosophy and religion. Generous and full of good intentions, they lack common sense and a sense of proportion. They are immodest and can blurt out secret information to the wrong people. When signing documents, they can fall for the bait of cunning, unreliable people. Often interested in the esoteric, they turn away from everyday life, immersing themselves in matters that interest them. They often talk a lot and pompously to impress. They are selfish and arrogant.

High in thoughts. However, these thoughts cannot be realized: they are usually not thought out in detail. However, with a strong position of Saturn, this disadvantage is removed. Usually there is little organization and practicality. They promise more than they deliver. Full of good intentions, but they lack common sense and a sense of proportion. They blurt out secret information. When signing documents, they may fall into the trap of cunning people.

Opposition, square: lack of strict thinking, laziness, foolishness. Tendency to boast about one's imaginary abilities and possibilities, bluffing, habit of throwing dust in people's eyes. In some cases, a person may elevate someone else's lie, mistakenly taking it for the truth, in others - intentionally allows this substitution in order to gain power. When the time comes to reap the fruits of one's prudence, he is always offended and not satisfied.

You don't spend a lot of time thinking out your problems, considering solutions, and the like. Your thoughts are most often elsewhere, and tend to be impractical much of the time. You can't seem to figure out the right course of action. This is most true when it comes to your career or vocation. Not a good counselor yourself, you are well advised to seek the advice of someone you trust when it comes to matters of your career.

Your child is very impulsive and inquisitive, he has many interests and hobbies. He likes to be first and in charge in everything. Sometimes he promises more than he can deliver. Expects too much from others, and tries to shirk responsibility. He knows how to persuade eloquently and is prone to exaggeration. Parents should teach their child to be more thorough and reliable in thinking, plans, and pay attention to details.
