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 Scorpio

Scorpio is a fixed water sign. Water signs feel, remember, protect, and read the room before anyone speaks. Fixed signs hold things. They sit in the middle of each season and like to finish. Mercury in Scorpio takes on that style.
