What Mercury does in a chart
Mercury describes how you think, communicate, and learn. Its sign says in what style, and its house says in which part of life.
Mercury in Pisces
Pisces is a mutable water sign. Water signs feel, remember, protect, and read the room before anyone speaks. Mutable signs change things. They close each season and like to adapt. Mercury in Pisces takes on that style.
Condition in the sign
Mercury is in detriment in Pisces, opposite the sign it rules. It works here, but against the grain of the sign, and that friction is often where the placement grows most.
