I've read that any aspect (especially the hard ones) between the two confers supreme intelligence, given that their planetary archetypes integrate the rational and subconscious minds.

These folk are known as chatty, animated, outgoing and lively. Perhaps gossipy, too, with a penchant for story-telling and/or performing.

Wouldn't that be awesome to have?!

Oh mintgirl.. where did you read this? Please tell me. I need to find this book and/or website! I have that aspect and I wish I had a 'light shining upon me' thing going on, yeah! It would be awesome.
But alas.. I do not.

I would say Im animated while story telling. Its not all over the place but Ill wave my hands around maybe take a couple steps here and a couple steps there without knowing it.

In my social group I make everyone play charades as much as possible. lol
People who havent played are always kind of like "ummm, okayy" but usually end up really enjoying it.

I do love writing. Not good at it, but I like to get my thoughts out on paper..
Along time ago I use to keep a "Thoughts of the day" book and I felt a whole lot better in those days.

I can be pretty persuasive too. And people that know me well will admit I'm a tad dramatic.

I also use to sing act and dance. (even made a little money)

There are subjects I do pretty well with, music, history, literature, and earth science.

I'm very gifted with music, I have perfect pitch.

But other people don't have these problems. (like how I don't have problems in other subjects)

After my 6 tables in multiplication give me a calculator. I can do my 10s, 11s, and 12s though

I enjoy history way more now than I did in school and I suck with punctuation.

But Im like you, I had to be stuck in "slower" classes for math since back in Elementary school.

I have a special gift for reading. In middle school I was on 2nd year college level. Go figure

Any info would be much appreciated! Thank you.

I have Moon in Aries Opposite Mercury in Libra. I would definitely say I'm many of those things you mentioned. I also have Mercury in the 8th house and I know a lot about many things, even things I'd rather not know, information always finds it's way to me. Which can lead to gossipy tendencies. However I'm very secretive so anything anyone tells me in private, by nature I won't reveal those secrets to the outside world. I know a few people with Moon Opposite Mercury, actually, and they're all very intelligent.

I've also got Mercury trine Ascendant, sextile Uranus, Saturn and Venus.

Great insight! Thank you.

Do you find your rational an subconscious minds are integrated?

You say those you know with the opposition are very intelligent, which I have also found. What, for you, constitutes "very intelligent"?

I have also found these people to not be emotional at all, rationalizing what they feel.

Yet another aspect that alludes to hiding or denying feelings/emotions/etc. Gosh, that seems like the theme of my chart

I assumed the Gem moon was culprit for the storytelling... I can be verbose! The self expression is pretty spot on - between fashion, music, writing - I definitely like to brand myself.

Cafe Astrology:

Moon Quincunx (Inconjunct) Mercury
"You end up confused at times because you read more into communications than are there. It's good to be able to read between the lines - just make sure you are also reading what is on the lines. Your expectations and imagination are assets as soon as you are able to develop a method for expressing your true feelings. Since many of your feelings are hidden from you, self expression becomes a path of self discovery."

I would definitely say that my rational and subconscious minds are integrated. When I was younger I'd kind of went back and forth between which one to trust however, I've learned to find a balance between accommodating both and I'd definitely apply the word integration.

I don't measure intelligence on book knowledge or conventional understanding (even though that's always interesting and nice to have). I measure intelligence based on how well someone uses their mind. The functionality of their mental capabilities. Incisive thinking, understanding abstractions, a thought process that connects patterns and intensively breaks apart concepts. A probing psyche, incessantly constructing and destructing concepts and abstractions, making links through concise awareness, patterns in nature and knowledge. A mind that pushes the boundaries of conventionally limited thinking and understanding. Expansive thinkers with minds that are always growing, evolving and changing.

At least with the Moon opposite Mercury people I know, they're all very good in Mathematics as am I. Which is a reflection of how we each use our minds. However all of this is just my basis for measuring intelligence. I don't need to look at IQ numbers to come to the conclusion that someone's a genius. Intelligence for me is based on how well you use your brain, not book smarts or conventional logic. The hope is that very intelligent people would use their knowledge and awareness for the betterment of humanity. If they do then I'd consider them almost ingenious. Because not only are they able to recognize the efficiency of the mind their able to apply that to effectively make a difference in the world.

I'm actually very connected to my emotions however I don't really show them. I'm the original poker face. Growing up I could definitely be faulted for rationalizing my feelings. It doesn't help that I'm dominant Air. That was until I understood my emotions better and really connected my thoughts to my feelings. As I've aged things have balanced within me and I'm in touch with both of these parts of myself and they work in harmony. I can't ever answer to just one, I have to answer to both. But I do think it can be a problem with people who have this aspect (Moon opp Mercury) that haven't learned to integrate those parts of themselves because it's not easy. It takes time however once learned it feels like your living fully as a capable individual.
