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 Taurus

Taurus is a fixed earth sign. Earth signs build, keep, and trust what they can touch and measure. Fixed signs hold things. They sit in the middle of each season and like to finish. Mercury in Taurus takes on that style.
