Mercury in Capricorn in the Seventh House

The placement of Mercury in Capricorn indicates you have a need to function mentally within set structures and to achieve goals. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Capricorn are a result of your need for mental organization and a focus on the concrete and the realistic. Mercury is generally well placed in Capricorn. This is symbolized by the natural trine between Capricorn and Mercury-ruled Virgo. Capricorn is the Cardinal Earth sign. Capricorn’s active earth quality resonates with the concrete and objective energy inherent in Mercury and symbolically forces Mercury’s changeable airy energy to apply itself to practical matters and to run along organized grooves.

Inherent in the placement of Mercury in Capricorn, however, is a tendency for spontaneity and freedom of thought to be sacrificed. The earth of Capricorn symbolically traps and confines Mercury’s airy energy. If you are not careful to keep the Mercury-associated functions stimulated, these can easily “get into a rut” and become rigid and stale.

Insicurezze

With Mercury in Capricorn, if you are insecure, then your mind is likely to be unsure of its own power of independent thinking. You will not really trust your mind or yourself to set proper goals for yourself. Therefore, you will rely on established conventions and these will govern your mind. In actuality, your ego has subconsciously set up this defense mechanism to keep the mind away from the Truth, which threatens the ego.  This insecurity about the mind, however, can also result in feelings of inferiority, mentally or with respect to your powers of communication. Your feelings of inferiority are likely to be exacerbated by the natural Capricornian drive to for success, which you do not think is within your reach.

Mercury in the 7th House:

The 7th House is generally a favorable placement for Mercury, since it tends to bring out the communication function represented by the planet. With Mercury in the 7th House, your relazioni are more likely to be mental than emotionally based. Your mental energy tends to be directed externally, toward others, rather than introspectively. As an individual with Mercury in the 7th House, you are likely to enjoy the communication involved in relationships, especially when others respond favorably to your communications and to your mental energy. You may, therefore, be quite active in forming and carrying on relationships with a variety of people. You are likely to enjoy people due to the mental stimulation that they provide you.

Having Mercury in the 7th House, your thoughts may dwell on your actual or potential relationships with others. If you become too mentally involved, you may become overly analytical or critical of your relationships. You may also suffer from worry over your relationships.  With Mercury in the 7th House, you may also be vulnerable to your thoughts and perceptions being influenced by your relazione partner(s) or even by those with whom you come in contact. The thought of wanting to please other people may become too dominant, to the extent that you lose your independence of mind or say things you really don’t believe in because you want others to think well of you.

Insicurezze

As an individual with Mercury in the 7th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will be overly concerned with what others think of you. Your thoughts will dwell too much on the reactions that others have to you and you worry about this constantly. This may make you cautious or reluctant to communicate to others or you may say only what you think others want to hear. Because of your own insecurities about your self-worth, you may assume that others think ill of you. This may lead you to adopt a highly critical attitude towards others as a defense mechanism. In this, you are merely responding in-kind to the attitudes that you assume others express toward you. When your negative attitudes go beyond just thinking, you may become verbally abusive.

Focus dell'intelletto

With Mercury in the 7th House, your intellect tends to be focused on others. You are likely to pay attention to what others think and the opinions that they express before forming your own opinions. You will also generally think about and analyze your relationships. This generally helps you to put your relationships in perspective, define yourself with respect to others and foster growth in your relationships. If you have an intellectual or academic interest in relationships, this may lead to a career in psychology or counseling.
