manderin | Theory: Person A's mercury is highly aspected by Person B. While Person B's Mercury is not very aspected by person A. Conclusion: A thinks a lot about B, while B doesn't think so much about A. What do you think? |
Randall | Bump! |
outofideas | Especially true if the Mercury person aspects the other's Ascendant, it doesn't even matter if the aspect is difficult or easy, there is a lot of thinking that goes with that one alone. |
manderin | I know someone who's mercury is directly conjunct my moon, sextile my pluto and opposite my mars. They often tell me they think of me all the time and I get texts from them all the time for no reason. |
GrlyGirl200 | I would say this is true on a very basic level, but you have to look at the individual Mercury placement to really know if this is indeed true. Aspects (both positive or negative) create buzz, so I would think that any Mercury that occurs would inspire the one who has his or her Mercury activated to think about the other. I met a guy who had his Mercury Conjunct my Asc/Sun and Mars and my Mercury was Conjunct his Sun...I did think about him. We had a falling out and tended to rub each other the wrong way. When we first met it was nice and pleasant. He had his Venus in Gemini and Mars in Virgo and was quite Mercurial. A second guy I met has his Mercury Trine my Asc, (loosely) Trine my Sun, Sextile my Neptune, and Conjunct my Pluto. While I have my Mercury Sextile his Sun, and Sextile his Saturn. Both of our Mercuries are Square the other, and his Venus placement is my Mercury and falls in my 3rd house. There is a lot of mental buzz, and I do think about him a great deal. I think the fact that we have the same Mercury and Venus placement helps a great deal. I'm not sure how much he thinks about me. |
manderin | So you mean- at first mercury thinks about the person a lot, but as the relationship develops they may or may not depending on the placement. Yes? |
Lalafortunaea | With someone I knew, I had 3 planets conjuncting HIS Mercury, plus his trined my pluto and moon. Me? Nada conjuncting my merc, yet I thought of him all the time. |

Well, then. lol. I guess that eliminates that theory. I wonder how much he thought of you. |
manderin | Like I don't understand the synastry thing sometimes because for example: When you look up Mars aspects online they tend to say that if person A's mars is aspecting person B's planets it is person B that is energized and becomes more active... Even though the mars belongs to person A. So I don't get that. So in synastry do all the planets work this way? |

So like- Did you do most of the talking/communicating in the relationship? |
outofideas | In my experience with most synastry placements it can really go both ways so it is difficult to tell from the charts alone who affects the other one more based on the specific synastry planet and aspects made. I don't believe there is a rule to this. The only rule I have found to apply on a consistant basis in relation to thinking is the one with the Mercury - Ascendant, and even that may not always apply if the Mercury person has their personal life preocuppied with other things and people. |
Lalafortunaea | quote: Originally posted by manderin: So like- Did you do most of the talking/communicating in the relationship?
Well no not really! In fact, he literally came after me whenever he saw me and would just start chatting with me about anything and everything. It was a bit startling at first, me being particularly quiet and shy with people I barely know. Eventually I got used to it, and got more comfortable with speaking to him. He'd even impulsively msg sometimes.

Ami Anne | I would say you could not draw this conclusion from that, my Friend. I would think Moons would give that kind of bonding connection. ------------------ Want to Read Simple, Fun,Sexy Articles on Astrology? Check Me Out, DUDE. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

In vedic it is the moon that represents the mind- and not mercury so you're probably right. |
GrlyGirl200 | It's also important to remember loads of Mercury without anything sexual will not equal someone who wants to date you. They'll enjoy talking about you but not want to be with you intimately. This is the same with the Moon in synastry. I would say a person who has Gemini or Virgo prominent will love the extra added Mercury stuff (if there are contacts to their Mercury)...but still need contacts to sexual planets. This is esp true if the person has strong sexual planets (Venus or Mars in it's natural placement, exalted, or dignified). I gave the example of the guy who had his Mercury Conjunct my Sun/Asc/Mars and my Mercury Conjunct his Sun. We had that, and it was nice...BUT he is still a man...and I didn't fit his Moon, Venus or Mars signature (Moon in Libra, Venus in Gemini, Mars in Virgo). On the other hand I dated a triple Gemini with Sun, Moon, and Venus in Gemini who had his Mercury Conjunct my Asc/Sun/Mars (like above). The difference is that his Mars was Conjunct my Venus. |
GrlyGirl200 | But I had this to say in direct comment about the topic, if we want to talk about someone just thinking about you and it being they think about you for either a long time or in terms of long term (in a serious relationship that could be friendship or more) I would look at Mercury Saturn or Pluto. That would cause the person to view communication as very serious and it might also cause a person to think about someone in terms of long term...ie glue. I've had Mercury Saturn and/or Pluto before and if I ever expressed anything the person tended to take me VERY VERY seriously (even when I was kidding). Also you have to look at the nature of the Mercury involved and how it is placed. For instance I have a Leo Mercury, so try telling a Scorpio Mars and Mercury you would want something to happen between you if they were single. They hear as Pluto (in Pluto Moon and Mars), and Saturn (in Saturn Moon, Mer, Venus) an admission of feelings and that this person is crazy about me and only wants me for a long term relationship. This particular Scorpio Mercury proceeded to avoid me like the plague UNTIL he and his gf broke up, and then we dated. So in this case his Mercury took what I said seriously, and remembered it two years or so later when I had more or less forgotten it. |

Mystic Melody | Manderin, it depends on the qualities of the planets that are connecting. Like his Venus to your Mercury. What he considers beautiful, artistic, all things Venus... if it Trines your Mercury, your thoughts, your mind... then what you THINK is just beautiful to him. This applies unless there are some troubling 3rd house aspects that might modify it. Like if he has issues with his third house he might not enjoy communication at all, though yours would be the least offensive. If his Mercury hit your Moon sign favorably, then he would really understand you when you talked about your emotions. If his Mercury did not hit/aspect your OTHER planets, he might not understand you or connect with you when you communicate UNLESS you are feeling your deep emotions at the time. If his Mercury hit your Venus too, then the two of you would connect during pleasurable Venusian pursuits and when you were flirting... and then also when you were emotional. That is why nice moon/Venus connections are favored. You would also understand the way he thinks on a deep and emotional level and might notice how quickly he perceived any of your attempts at being flirtatious. Unless his own Mercury was afflicted, he would absolutely "get you" when you were being flirty or emotional. |
