Mercury in Capricorn in the Eighth House

The placement of 水銀 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.

不安

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 8th House:

Mercury in the 8th ハウス is a somewhat challenging placement for the planet because of the 8th House’s association with privacy. Even though public communication may be difficult for you, Mercury in the 8th House suggests a variety of strengths. These strengths can be developed once you realize that developing your mental and communication faculties is possible once these are turned in the right direction.

As an individual with Mercury in the 8th House, while you may experience some difficulty with abstract or objective forms of mental activity, you are likely to become adept at cognitively understanding emotions and the motivations of others. Rather than perceiving by deduction, you are more likely to turn your mental attention to those matters where a more intuitive perception is valuable. Generally, with Mercury in the 8th House, you are most comfortable mentally when dealing with private or internal matters.

Having Mercury in the 8th House, although your mind’s intuitive functions may be highly developed, this may not be evident to others because you may not display your mental or communicative aptitudes. You are likely to be interested in things that are secret and enjoy thinking about intimate details. You can be highly observant of nuances and personal details that others may overlook. For this reason, you are often an excellent judge of character and able to predict how people will act and react.

不安

With Mercury in the 8th House, if you are inwardly insecure you will be terrified of discovering real intimacy and may subconsciously adopt a variety of mechanisms to avoid any awareness of a level of intimacy in which you would lose yourself. One such strategy is to intellectualize the intimate. Sexuality, intimate emotions and 人間関係, even death, are reduced to mechanical, mental formulas. Having Mercury in the 8th House, you may like to think about or talk about sexuality and other intimate matters, but you do not really participate in them – you do not really feel intimate.

For the individual with Mercury in the 8th House, another strategy is to prevent the mind from having any meaningful engagement. Your conversation is perfunctory, or you are reluctant to engage in conversation with others, preferring to be alone. Your thoughts are all on the surface. Your mental capacity may appear weak, because it is not exercised.

Having Mercury in the 8th House, a darker defensive strategy involves being mentally focused on the negative side of intimacy. You may have a mental fascination with death or with sexual perversity. You may avoid intimate contact to the extent of becoming anti-social. Your mental fascination with death and destruction, however, generally will not proceed beyond talk.

知性の焦点

With Mercury in the 8th House, you are likely to focus your intellect on things that are below the surface, on intimate details. You may have the type of mind that cannot rest until you have perceived the source of things and have stripped away all superficialities, completely, to get to the essence of a thing that may lie hidden to others. Besides this tendency, your intellect may contemplate matters of sexuality or life and death. You may also have an intellectual interest in managing others or in power relationships.  As an individual with Mercury in the 8th House, you may be interested in economics from the standpoint of how resources are shared. If you are a lawyer, your area of specialty is likely to be in contracts, wills, divorces and other matters involving the intermingling of resources.
