Mercury in Pisces in the Second House

The placement of Mercury in Pisces indicates you have a need to be able to function mentally in a flexible manner that is not unduly confined by “artificial” boundaries. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Pisces are a result of this underlying tension and the constant mental struggle and search for definition that you are likely to experience.  There is an inherent tension in Mercury’s placement in Pisces. This tension is symbolized by Pisces’ natural square to Mercury-ruled Gemini and its natural opposition to Virgo, which is also ruled by Mercury. Pisces is the Mutable Water sign.  The dissipating, watery, changing energy associated with Pisces creates a natural difficulty for the structure-based, objective and precise mental and communication functions associated with Mercury.

It is rather difficult for Mercury’s precise and mental energies to navigate the ever-changeable waters of Pisces. Another difficulty is that your intellect is forced to operate within the realm of emotions. If you cannot make peace with this tension and learn to use it to your benefit, the result will often be a frustration for yourself and others, with issues centering on the indefiniteness of your mental and communicative processes. On the other hand, if you can mentally adjust to the  Piscean environment, then this will open up a whole new world of experience for you and your mental and communicative powers will be enhanced by the flexibility,  agility, and unlimitedness that you are free to explore.

Inseguridades

With Mercury in Pisces, if you are insecure, you are likely to feel confused by the utter lack of stable reference points, mentally. Your mind is fearful of taking a stand, knowing that it may be undercut at any time, either because of external change and fluidity or because of internal shifts in your point of view. You are not willing to take that risk.  Instead, you abandon all mental discipline and sink into a state of total relativity.  Constantly shifting your position to suit expediencies, your word cannot be relied upon. Without mental grounding and structure, you perceive the world as chaotic and unordered.

Therefore, your mind is vulnerable to irrational fears growing out of the realization that anything could happen to you at any time. This results in an extreme amount of nervousness, which often compounds your chaotic and confused communication and mental state.

Mercury in the 2nd House:

With Mercury in the 2nd House, the Earth influence associated with the 2nd House suggests that your mental energy is practical and grounded. It is likely that your mental energy will be turned toward matters associated with physical survival and providing for comfort and financial security. More abstractly, you may turn your attention to forming values. However, having Mercury in the 2nd House, if you do not consciously reconsider your value system, then it is likely that you will not deviate from the value system to which you have been conditioned – one that is dominated by material values and self-interest.

As an individual with Mercury in the 2nd House, much of your mental energy is likely to be occupied with material acquisitions and securing a safe and comfortable environment for yourself and those who depend upon you. You may always be thinking of how to provide for your and your family’s material security. Because of this focus, with Mercury in the 2nd House, you may be more likely to have a cautious and practical mental attitude. You are likely to view intellect as valuable when it is useful in pursuing your goals. You may have some antipathy toward those “intellectuals” who are concerned with less practical matters.

Inseguridades

Having Mercury in the 2nd House, you may become inwardly insecure when you see your mental abilities as what must bring you success at acquiring material possessions and living in material affluence. That part of your self-worth that you attach to your mental and communicating proficiencies is, then, vulnerable to you achieving material “success” in life. With Mercury in the 2nd House, you may conceive that the sole value of your intellect is in playing the game of material acquisition. You dismiss thinking for its own sake as something frivolous.  If you are not successful materially, then you may disparage your intellect and turn away from it. This not only lowers your self-esteem, it also practically guarantees your failure in the material world. As an individual with Mercury in the 2nd House, you may compensate by redefining your concept of material success by valuing those things that are not rewards for a keen intellect.  You may also fear the burden of pursuing material success, due to your inner insecurities. This, also, may prompt you to reject your intellect and to appear dull and uncommunicative to others.

Enfoque del intelecto

With Mercury in the 2nd House, you tend to be intellectually focused on improving your or others’ material comfort and security. This may take the form of seeking practical solutions to problems of material scarcity, using your intellect in financial matters to acquire wealth, thinking about wealth and welfare or simply applying your intellect to gaining material possessions and security. You may be concerned with the meaning of value, with determining what is really valuable, or with the science of ethics or economics.
