Same predicament. My mind is sometimes quicker than my mouth. Or the reverse: I will speak and my brain is trying to catch up with what I'm saying. Since I gave the trine, though, it is a mostly positive and stimulating thing, instead of frustrating me.

Remember Uranus is as intuitive as it is logical. So I think the reason why we can think and speak with such originality and inventiveness is not meant to be entirely understood.

1. Mercury square Uranus (exact)
- Libra Mercury - Capricorn Uranus
- 6H - 9H
- ASC ruler - MC ruler

2. Internally I think my thought process flows unhindered but when I have to form it into speech I run into obstacles. I forget the words or I can't think of them, I stutter, I go off on tangents, the structure of my story or arguments is erratic and although it all makes sense in my head it doesn't come out as coherent as I know it is in my mind. It definitely feels like my mind is sprinting and it leaves my communication abilities in the dust.

3. I didn't care for the academic part of school to be honest. I worried about everything else except for grades. I just went with the flow and had good to excellent grades. I wasn't a fan of studying or cramming. I think I mostly passed by what I remembered in class. I was bad in all the exact sciences - math, psychics, chemistry etc. Teachers used to say that I had it in me to be an honor student but I didn't put in any effort.

4. Absolutely. Sometimes it even bursts my bubble because I really look up to "elders" and despite having confidence in my intellect I always feel humble before people older than me because I assume they just "know better", and then I see them stumble or be subjective/narrow-minded about something that I see from all perspectives and I'm disillusioned - did I really see THEM as an intellectual authority?

5. Kind of. I wouldn't say my sense of humor is that weird. But I do like more provocative jokes. Also the "mind before matter" problem also applies here. I can think of jokes fast but I can't say them properly (especially when I stutter or mess up the words) and I end up looking like a fool lol.

1. Mercury in Aquarius conjunct Aquarius Moon in 3rd. Uranus in 3rd conjunct Venus, Neptune and sextile Pluto.

2. Incredibly highly sporadic thinking. I'm a genius when it comes to rebellion and indifference. I'm a pothead (not currently) always causing a scene internally or externally. Have had fights because people think I'm distant or just an ass. Love to create and love anything funky. Yes it's hard for me to turn off my thoughts but music or meditation helps me calm down immensely.

3. Felt misunderstood but I also rebelled. I hate school and the entire system. Everything blows, everyone is the same. Going back to a school for a semester this year but truly don't know if I'll finish. If I find a good job I will probably quit and work on my getting my band together.

4. All the damn time. This is actually my downfall. I AM a rebel. I know we choose our happiness. A lot of people are asleep and I have to leave or escape in someway to recharge. Sometimes I feel crazy for being so ahead of the times. No one gets me.

5. Very provocative and quirky. I like being weird. People see me as really smart but not quick witted so to say. More laid back in that sense.

1. I have mercury in 29 Virgo conjunct sun/Mars 4 libra in the 6th house square Uranus 1 Cap right on cusp of 8th/9th house, conjunct Saturn and Neptune, also opposing Jupiter, it's apart of a HUGE t-square.

2. My thought process is pretty random, I'm a very visual person so I have all kinds of different ideas going through my mind all the time, I would say I'm very scattered, I've always been very restless and had a hard time focusing. Sometimes I feel like my mind goes so fast that it's not going in a straight light but flashing all over, sometimes I'll stutter too and have a hard time connecting my thoughts to words.

3. I was very out of place. I was held back in kindergarten, went to 3 different schools early on too, and I suppose I was just super disruptive. Wouldn't sit still, blurted out answers and I was pretty mischievous. I was diagnosed with ADD and teachers tried to talk my mom into giving me meds.. Haha thank goodness she didn't. I remember getting in time outs often or missing recess, one of my kindergarten teachers hated me so much! She would disclude me from everything. My 1st grade teacher got that if she gave me a complex and elaborate art project I would sit still for hours and my 2nd grade teacher realized that I guess even though I didn't look like I was listening and I figgited a lot that when he asked me questions I knew all the answers, then he had me try for "gifted" classes..which was awesome because I got to leave class.. And focus on more interesting topics, soon figuring out that it wasn't that I didn't care to learn I was just bored because I knew everything already. Pretty disruptive all through out schooling. Even now in college I still feel like I'm on a different planet than everything or somewhat confused and lost haha. I am not good at structure, maybe it's also my Neptune in 9th house haha and Saturn in 9th. But I was always really good at math, physics.. couldn't figure out English for the longest time.. Although I was a good reader.. And art classes were always my number 1 since forever.. Also when I was in high school, I did so bad as far as homework and attendance and such, I was almost sent to a continuation school, but when they saw my state test scores they kept me because I had one of the highest in the state.

4. Sometimes, it's not so much quickness but I feel like there are multiple channels or layers going on simultaneously and I can focus on more than a few things at a time and make random connections. I churn over a lot of ideas so I suppose it can seem like I already understand a lot of topics that I seem to talk about, or grasp things very quickly and I'm moving on to the next thing. Plus with my Mercury also conjunct Mars, my mind goes super fast and at times pretty impatient

5. Well, I think Saturn being involved in the square.. I'm only quick witted sometimes. I think I can have clever responses but I can be sort of slow at responding sometimes too, maybe Taurus rising? And my responses are very outrageous most of the time, my sense of humor is very ridiculous, I like silly random humor. Weird humor is my favorite or when it's really sexual and bawdy. Hard to explain I guess because it's so weird sometimes?

2. How random and offbeat are your thought processes? Do you ever find it hard to mentally slow down and to also slow down your speech/communication?
Thought process is definitely random and can juggle different topics in one conversation back and forth. I don't believe my mind process fast because I don't process information quickly or I get confused. This is where I am different from what I read for Merc/Ur – I talk slow too however my mind always juggling different ideas/thoughts

3. What were your experiences in grade school like? Did you rebel, feel out of place? Were you very smart just misunderstood?
I am more misunderstood – Example: I don’t like history class because I see it as biased and not the whole truth. English was a struggle that I was stuck in ESL/grammar class up to community college. Getting good grades were hard. I am happy as long it is a passing grade. I love science and math though (art/woodshop/class with computers involved) -- math did not come easily for me. I failed math until late elementary and finally understood it out of no where. I use my own strategy to help me understand problems. Explanation by teachers confuses me more -- so as long I understand the concept I will come up with my own way to understand.

4. Do you find yourself feeling quicker intellectually than most people, to the point where you just feel like they don't "get it"?
Quite the opposite. Information has to be repeated several time for me to understand. What I learn is, asking questions – I notice questions I ask comes off irrelevant but it helps me understand so it surprised people at times or annoy them. This condition has me feel I am not mentally faster than most. – I believe this come to show looking at the whole chart to understand why.

5. How weird, provocative, or random is your sense of humor? Do people say you're quick witted?
I find it is hard to laugh out loud nowadays. It could be my humor is more child-like and I am working in a professional field which restricts such humor – otherwise it gets send to the HR. I think it’s mildly provocative but more on the random/weird side. Also I find slapstick funny or when things are act out dramatically.

posted February 28, 2018 03:29 PM            

I have mercury opposition uranus. Mercury is in Gemini in the 5th house and Uranus is in Sagittarius in the 11th house.

2. How random and offbeat are your thought processes? Do you ever find it hard to mentally slow down and to also slow down your speech/communication?

My thought processes have always been extremely rapid. I could easily destroy someone's arguments because I'm good at spotting weaknesses. My speech is very quick because I'm trying to keep up with my thoughts. I often was able to teach my classmates a new concept as I was learning a concept.

3. What were your experiences in grade school like? Did you rebel, feel out of place? Were you very smart just misunderstood?

I was always known as the brainy, sweet and quiet kid. I spoke only if someone asked me a question. Grade school was boring for me, but I never rebelled or got into trouble. My teachers and classmates always loved me.

4. Do you find yourself feeling quicker intellectually than most people, to the point where you just feel like they don't "get it"?

I think a lot more quickly than the average person and I can definitely amaze them with how quickly I can learn. However, I've never had trouble relating to others.

5. How weird, provocative, or random is your sense of humor? Do people say you're quick witted?

Yes, people have said I am very quick witted. My sense of humor can either be conventional or off-beat. People never really know what I will say next. I'm brutally honest, so people have learned to never ask me for my opinion unless they really want to know. I can keep people laughing for hours if I feel like it.

6. Is it difficult for people to change your opinions and ideas, once your mind is made up?

It is impossible to change my mind unless someone presents hard evidence to convince me to change my course of action or belief.

2. How random and offbeat are your thought processes? Do you ever find it hard to mentally slow down and to also slow down your speech/communication?
Quite random. It is relatively easy for me to slow down my speech/communication, which likely comes from third house Saturn in Aquarius making a sextile to my Mercury, but if I am not communicating with anyone, slowing down my thought process can be a challenging task. Being able to see my thoughts in front of me on a computer is quite helpful in this regard and it helps me organize what I am thinking.

3. What were your experiences in grade school like? Did you rebel, feel out of place? Were you very smart just misunderstood?
I felt very out of place. Bullying was a common issue for me back then.

4. Do you find yourself feeling quicker intellectually than most people, to the point where you just feel like they don't "get it"?
Yes. While I will admit I am no genius and that I certainly have my challenges just as any other person, there are things I naturally understand that a significant portion of humanity doesn't seem to grasp. It isn't easy having this knowledge though, because I know that some of said knowledge is also accessible to basically every other human being. All of this said, there is knowledge I possess that most people do not know anything about, not because they can't obtain it for themselves but simply because they choose not to.

5. How weird, provocative, or random is your sense of humor? Do people say you're quick witted?
My sense of humor can be quite weird and random, though I have never been called quick-witted outside of cookbook interpretations of my Gemini Moon.

Elementary school seems fairly normal for me. There were things of note in my life back then but school was mostly a neutral experience to me, like having breakfast. It just was and I went through the motions without thinking too much about it (though I thought of other things).

Indirectly affecting my elementary school years is that local girls in my neighborhood shunned me starting when I was 6 (I suspect their parents had more to do with this than them) so that I got shunted with the boys, and both of these events affected how I socialized in school (I'm choosing to skip a more detailed explanation here). When I was 10 another girl moved near me who was also in an alcoholic home and she was soon shunned as well, but she and I became friends, and later other girls she formed a bond with in school accepted me as well.

There are two notable things about my elementary school years of note, one is that I was the only one who managed to get out of watching Old Yeller (when the school tried to make us all see it for a third time). It was unusual for me to get so angry and stubborn back then, but it happened that time (and I was allowed to read quietly in the library while the rest of the school watched the film).

The other is that teachers generally loved my fiction stories, and I got high praise for the creativity, characterization, and other features, some seeming to think I was a prodigy. (I'd also write stories, usually dark/scary fairy tales, on my own time which gave me practice. I now know in retrospect that I was trying to work out issues of mine in the stories which contributed to the creativity and richness of them, since the characters were based on people I actually know "through a mirror darkly" in a world of metaphor.) However, my dad told me one time to stop freaking one of my teachers out who I had learned called my mother as she was worried that I was "showing distress" given how macabre and disturbing they could get (the teacher was right, but she was stupid to have called, had my parents been more abusive I'd have surely been punished severely for drawing attention to my home life), and after my (Scorpio) mom (much more disturbing than I could ever be) openly mocked her, the teacher called Dad who also made fun of her. But Dad did tell me he didn't want anymore calls from her (though he made it clear he thought it was my teacher with the problem rather than me, but he wanted her to stop bothering them).

And then Pluto began transiting my Sag stellium, and that was FAR WORSE than my Saturn return! It was an amazing time of my life, but it could've easily killed me, and I gained both psychic and physical scars that may last a lifetime from it.

As for school (now middle school) my answers usually disturbed them (one teacher did enjoy my questions and interaction, though she often couldn't answer my questions so that I'd research it myself), and one male teacher even called me scary just for my ideas (note, Mars in a stellium with Uranus which by itself can make one shocking and argumentative, and this is augmented by the Pluto transit, and all sextile to my 3H Libra Merc) and a practice began (which lasted for the rest of my time in school) in which I was given special privileges of reading or writing in class as long as I didn't ask questions or participate (I've seen teachers literally cringe when my hand went up ). Interesting enough, when I transferred to another school hundreds of miles away the same practice was quickly instituted, and I bet that's because one of my new teachers called my old school to learn how they managed me!

While I violently defended myself from assault and molestation (or even vivid threats of such), I was usually easygoing otherwise, and so for the most part I could shunned and endure wild rumors spread about me, but it was extremely rare for anyone to try to actually intimidate me (even adults could find I wasn't impressed by a glare or authoritative tone). It was my last year in high school (in a special behavior class, placed there as I'd ran away from home and spent 6 months on the streets before coming back, when I was 16) that I got truly rebellious (and my stories, even as a class assignment, were such that I'd eventually get put into in school suspension over them--that I used genuine footnotes only infuriated faculty even more), but by then I'd done some growing up on the streets outside the bubble of school and had other reasons to do so, and to this day I say the adults I didn't respect didn't deserve to be (I did respect others).

Oh! My first year in (normal) high school was when I asked if a date was correct in a history book and was mocked when I revealed that a heavy metal song gave a different date. So I found books in both the school and public library that all agreed with the song and disagreed with the book. I got into so much trouble for that (the books belonging to the school library were taken and the librarian there told me not to worry about it). In a multiple choice test later one was on the specific date (obviously added because of what I did as dates were never asked, and these were created by the teacher himself) which included the correct date and the incorrect date given by the textbook (and thus teacher). I chose the correct date and it was the only one marked wrong on the test.

But as my second year in (special class) high school came to a close, I ran away from home a second time and never went back. The faculty was probably as happy as I was about that fact. [/B]

So I do like to weigh all sides and if someone can really convince me I'm wrong then I definitely won't hesitate to admit my wrong or my lack of knowledge and shift opinions. I'm always willing to learn something new.

2. I find it quite hard to slow down mentally. I never seem to stop thinking and have trouble sleeping because of it. My Mercury is RX and I am a very quiet person so I internalize a lot.

3. I definitely did feel out of place, but I had friends. I was sort of nerdy too. I did not get great grades because I never really wanted to push myself, unfortunately.

4. Yes, I feel this way a lot.

5. My humor is very dead pan, thanks to my Scorpio Mercury.
