Mercury in Taurus in the First House
The placement of Mercury in Taurus indicates you have a need for security in the mental environment. Very often, this sense of mental security derives from a knowledge of physical security. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Taurus are a result of this need to have a mental perception of safety and security. Therefore, it is often the case that the functions associated with Mercury are focused in their application on acquiring and retaining the elements of physical and material security. This diligent application tends to concentrate those functions and develop tenaciousness.
Taurus is the Fixed Earth sign. Both the fixity and the earthiness of Taurus’ nature symbolically slow and entrap the quick and airy nature associated with Mercury. This is not entirely without benefit, as this forces these functions to concentrate, thus allowing them to fulfill their purpose. The benefit of the practical and concrete nature thus conferred is symbolized by the natural trine existing between Taurus and Mercury-ruled Virgo. Still, the fixed earth influence on Mercury can result in tension or a lack of optimization with respect to the Mercury-symbolized functions, as their natural proclivities are held back considerably.
불안정성
Having Mercury in Taurus, if you are insecure, your lack of mental quickness and ready mental grasp can easily cause you to lose your intellectual self-confidence. You are likely to compensate for this feeling of inferiority by taking satisfaction in your possessions. Your mind is thoroughly attached to its activity of thinking about gain and loss. This attachment keeps you from thinking about the real value of life, which is not in intellectual achievement. Of course, if you also lack possessions, you are likely to feel particularly insecure and those functions symbolized by Mercury will be constantly engaged in thinking about your physical and material welfare.
Mercury in the 1st House:
Having Mercury in the 1st House suggests that your mind and your ability to communicate play an important role in defining your identity and your sense of self. Inwardly, you may mentally focus on your self-identity. You are apt to think consciously and analytically about your identity and selfhood. You are more likely to consciously form the question, “Who am I?” than are most people. You can be expected to take a rational approach to answering this question. With Mercury in the 1st House, your self-analysis may extend beyond this basic question to others involving the definition of your identity. The danger in your mental energy being particularly focused on your self-identity is that you may become too self-absorbed.
With Mercury in the 1st House, tt is even more common for you mental and communication functions to manifest as an integral part of your identity. You are likely to see yourself as a thinking person (or, if you shun seeing yourself as an “intellectual,” as a communicating person). Because the mental and communicating functions are so closely identified with your self-concept, they are likely to be energized and extroverted.
