I'm curious what aspects would cause someone to either be interested in learning other languages or learning them quite easily. I've got my Sun conjunct Mercury in the 8th house, plus my Mercury trines my mars and sextiles my ascendant ruler- Jupiter, so I guess you could say I find studying other languages quite fulfilling.Hablo español tambien y me encanta aprender otra idiomas en general, pero ahora hablo español y inglés solomente. Hace tres años que estudiar español y fue a España dos tiempos, ¡me encanta viajar muchîsmo! ------------------ Sun - Leo Moon - Pisces Ascendant - Sagittarius IP: Logged |

I'm not sure about aspects, but Sag and Jupiter to be sure. I've always been interested in linguistics also, I have Mercury conjunct the angle in the 7th and Mercury is conjunct Uranus and opposite Chiron.IP: Logged |

Ive got sun conjunct mercury in the 10th house in Gemini and I LOVE learning new languages. I can speak some Italian. I can understand some of mandarin and Cantonese potunghua (Chinese), Vietnamese, Korean, some Spanish, and I'm trying to pick up some Gaelic too. Where I work, I meet many people from all areas of the earth and it's interesting and fun to learn from them.------------------ Virgo Asc 6˚& Mars 0˚ Gemini Sun 24˚ Libra Moon 14˚(conjunct Pluto 0˚ in 2nd house) Gemini Mercury 25˚ Cancer Venus 29˚ And yes, i'm a guy!

Sag in Jupiter in the first house, Conjunct Neptune. It says everything about my linguistic skills, it's opposite Saturn in the 7th. I make an effort out of respect for my in-laws, but my grasp of their language is mediocre.IP: Logged |

I also have Sun conjunct Mercury but in Virgo and I'm very fond of learning new languages, too. Mercury is retrogarde, though, so I think I have good linguistic skills but I can express myself better in writing rather then talking . Uranus is prominent in my chart, with positive aspects to Sun and Mercury, ASC and negative to Moon and Venus.I belive that Uranus is also " responsible " for linguistic skills because it creates very original way of thinking and expressing yourself.

I love learning new languages and have tried to learn: French, German, Spanish, Japanese, and Welsh. Only the first 3 actually stuck (in varying degrees)and Welsh was a definite tongue twister. As for my native English, well I'm a bit of prude when it comes grammar, spelling, and the like.I've got Mercury conjunct Uranus in the 1st house squared by Mars in the 10th. My 11th house Jupiter is in Virgo, with a wide sextile (5'59) to my Sun and conjunct my North Node. IP: Logged |

I have attempted to learn chinese, french and german. I must say that I never became fluent in any of them and turned to semiotics after awhile.My mercury is in Aries in the 9th and opposed by Pluto and Uranus in the 3rd. In fact, language and symbolism hold a higher interest for me than most other areas of study. Mercury is the most harshly aspected planet in my entire chart.

I have Sun conjunct Mercury both in Aquarius in the 9th so you would think it would be SUPER easy for me to pick up other languages. BUT IT ISN'T >:|Maybe it's because my Mercury is retrograde? IP: Logged |
