I have mercury in libra square neptune, saturn, jupiter and uranus and I have an urge to write, I write something everyday, and I write both histories from my own life, fiction and poems. I am also planning on writing a book one day if I can put my mind together and stay focused about something. I mostly like to write short stories.

That is sooo cool! I see you have a packed mercury with lots of aspects, how nice and this in combo with mercury in libra gives you a flair for words since mercury is disposited by venus. I imagine venus aspects also influence your writing.

I love to write, and most people enjoy my poetry. I'm getting better at other forms of writing, but poetry, written in the confessional style, is my strongest art...it's my true creative calling! Sometimes, I like to write drafts for novels too. They're mainly science-fiction with realistic/humanistic elements, slice of life stories, etc. I like to incorporate existentialism and coming of age themes into my writing as well. But again, I do have a much more difficult time with fiction writing, since I switch from project to project easily.

Natal: Mercury in Scorpio H11/tr. Saturn in Pisces H3/sq. Mars in Cancer H8. Mercury is disposited by Pluto in the 12th.

I love writing, short stories, long stories, writing for work, newsletters etc, people seem to like my style and I have been published on a small scale.

I love writing. Sun, Mercury, Saturn all in Pisces very tightly conjunct and my Venus in Pisces loosely conjunct all the aforementioned planets. My Mercury is retrograde, so I overthink and internalize things and assess them until they sound good enough to post. I am extremely bothered and nerved by unstructured and unaesthetic writing.

I don't write too often anymore because I always struggle with feeling like I have no creative urges but usually people have always complimented me on it and think I'm a really good one, or that I could become a writer someday if I decided to. I think I write with a lot of heart and emotional expression, and I like to be very descriptive and metaphoric.

Ohh I used to research it. Here's what came up

- prominent Virgo, Gemini
- Mercury as chart ruler
- Mercury sits in 1st, 3rd, 5th, 10th, 11th house or rules them
- Mercury - Venus aspects, esp harmonious ones
- Moon - Mercury aspects
- Mercury - Jupiter aspects
- aspects connecting 3H-MC and 3H-11H
- busy 3H, 5H, 11H
- NN ruled by Mercury or in 3H, 5H, 11H
- Mercury in aspect to Uranus
- Venus in 3H or ruled by Mercury, esp if there is also an aspect to Mercury

Here's what I have

Mercury in 5H in Scorpio (Mars in 5H, Pluto in 4H)
Venus conj Jupiter in 3H ruled by Mercury
Venus sextile Mercury
Moon in Gemini in 11H trine Venus-Jupiter in 3H
Mercury conj Uranus

I can't help but notice that one of you has mercury in leo in the 3rd and the other has mercury in the 5th. I am thinking this a nice placement for making learning a fun and engaging experience; perhaps teachers who joke and are more flexible in letting students chose the angle and topic of interest to work in depth with; I would think such teachers would be more open to individual differences in interests and learning styles and nourish that etc...

Or it could represent a true passion for writing; since leo is involved you both write bc is fun and enjoyable and it will give you creativity and dramatic a flair.

Nice.

I guess the only thing would be discipline like the article mentions which is usually brought to you by Saturn but high motivation can replace a lack of saturn in the chart perhaps.

No problem!

I actually remember my 8th grade Social Studies teacher being a bit like that, and naturally everyone appreciated him for it. He made learning fun and liked to joke a lot.

Yeah I can definitely see the Leo influence in my writing sometimes. Like a warm, dramatic piece. Also agree about Saturn.

I'm not even sure, but I can see my entire chart in my writing. I've been popular in fanfiction and even won more than one (and one sent me a pin as a prize once).

Sometimes I feel as if the story is channeled through me, that is like someone is using me to write the story.

I also think current positions have an affect. For example, as Mars entered Scorpio I could see the effects almost right away.

I write short stories and novellas, I have ghostwritten several nonfiction books and co-authored one fiction book. I also used to work as a technical writer.


I have a four planet Virgo Stellium. Sun con Jupiter in the fifth house and Pluto, Uruanus in the sixth. Pluto conjuncts all the Virgo planets. Virgo is 6th house cusp.

Mercury is Libra intercepted in the sixth house. It conjuncts Venus which is also Libra and the chart ruler. Mercury opposes moon and chiron and north node in the 12th house.

My fifth house has three planets in it-four if you count Pluto which is sitting right on the cusp on the 5th and 6th house, but reads as sixth. Leo is on the 5th house cusp.

I write fiction. Character driven pieces, with a strong leaning toward relationships.

Leo rules my 3H
Sun conj. Mercury and Venus
Mercury sextile ASC, Mars.
Mercury Aries / ASC Mars Gemini
Sun sextile ASC
Sun square Saturn
Sun square Neptune
Mercury square Neptune

I'm not good at being creative in my writing, but I'm aggressive and have good tone. You will feel what I'm feeling if you read my writing, which is realistic with some exaggerations. I like to balance my posts out with both positive and negative, and do censor myself a lot. I hated them when I was younger but now that I'm more focused I would LOVE writing research papers. I have Virgo IC and naturally have a critical eye which comes in handy in that environment. A lot of people tell me I should write a book just by talking to me, and most like my sense of humor which comes across very clear in my writing too.

I love to write! Im especially good at creative writing/short stories, and for some reason, summaries lol

I've always been good at it, and even considered becoming a writer of fiction novels when I was younger, but alas, not all dreams come true and ive grown to discover an even deeper love of studying history of ancient people. I would love to be a linguist who unlocks a newly discovered ancient language

3rd house ruled by virgo.
Pisces Merc in 9h conjunct sun, sextile taurus moon, square sag mars/uranus all less than 3 degrees

I don't know if I have a flair for writing per say but once you gave me quite a compliment regarding the matter.

When it comes to writing, I have great difficulty in remaining true to any sort of ideas for more than a few a days - so at the moment I'd struggle to write more than a poem.

But one thing that does happen frequently is this weird intuition or image of people speaking and saying things a certain way.

I often get these intuitions after exercising or randomly. It feels like being struck by lightning because it's sudden and quick and almost impossible to hold on to.

I see people saying things in the best of ways. I imagine what they wear, and how they are saying things that are generally considered cliche in themselves, but in unique and strange ways.

For instance, I'd imagine a cool cowboy/gunslinger/anti-hero saying to a villain, "pardon me if I take your life, sah, but I serve the reaper well."

Or a woman saying to a man, "I love you more than the promise of eternal dawns."

Just random things mostly....

The same happens for songs about stories, chorus lines, and what not...

I have mercury conjunct uranus in sagitarius and it aspects everything quite badly except for a sextile to venus in aquarius conjunct the mc and a mercury/uranus trine lilith in aries in the 11th....

It squares my moon in pisces and it is opposite my ascendant....

"I oft' wonder, kiddenz, what good it does me to say a thing well if saying itself is pretty worthless in a sayless land and I lack the patience to write it."

That's an example that just came to mind...lol!

Thanks so much I have a virgo sun, so mercury is also my chart ruler, but doesn't aspect venus though…but I have venus in 5th house and aspect all the other planets that mercury touches

I thought the chart ruler is the ruler of the AC. That is why I always say jupiter is my chart ruler but like you mercury rules my sun.

And since mercury is in libra that means mercury is disposited by Venus which is in your 5th and aspects all the other planets mercury touches so that is pretty neat. It explains why writing is a hobby and demonstrates artistic talent for it I would think add some nice grounding saturn aspects to give you discipline and I think you can be a writer career wise.

I was hoping you would participate in this thread! I thought of you.

I think you do have talent and the aspects show this but perhaps you are missing some discipline it sounds like or maybe over time this discipline will grow and develop more!

Mercury and Sun trine Neptune for me. Mercury and the Sun are in the 9th house as is Venus and the Moon. All are in Gemini except the Moon in cancer.
Venus in Gemini loves words. To me, a guy is only attractive by how he talks. I really don't care about looks that much or body etc.

The Venus sign is crucial for attractions lol

Check the dispositor of your mercury if is unaspected and check for asteroids like pallas.

What sign is your mercury in?
