Ruler of the 3rd and 6th house conjunct 1st? Wowza!!
Do they like to fix things or solve problems?Do they also do things quickly?Do they swear a lot? Scream or shout when frustrated?
Mercury in Mars ruled Aries can either fix things or find something to break. They also get straight to the point of what they want to say. Sometime finding cuss words quicker to access to express an outrage 
This does not mean that they are "uncouth", stupid or not well-read.On the contrary.
Aries Mercury gives them sharpness of understanding complexities with a brief glance. That is why they can just "go for the jugular". They are usually good at technical things that require actual" handling"
I don't think the individual is particularly detail focused in their knowledge. More "crux" focused than anything: Wanting to know what "the bottom line" is really.
Tact is not something they know and would be wise to develop as they can criticize/argue their point in a very cutting(Mars)way indeed.
Hence you see the Virgo traits.I see what happens when Aries occupies the mind; a very sharp tongue that can offend others very easily on one hand.
Or could be the "straight talk" motivator that people need to get their juices flowing on the other.
