Mercury in Capricorn in the Fourth 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.

불안정성

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 4th House:

Typically, the 4th House would not be seen as a very strong placement for Mercury, as it suggests a somewhat introverted focus. With Mercury in the 4th House, the mental energy symbolized by Mercury is likely to be expressed in a somewhat limited or constrained way, chiefly focused on private concerns and not particularly engaged with the wider world. Your mental faculties tend to concentrate on things that have a high emotional content. Mercury in the 4th House also suggests a potential for conflict involving your mind acting in a sphere of life that is dominated by emotion.

With Mercury in the 4th House, the strength of this house placement is the opportunity it suggests for building a strong mental foundation. This may be because of the firm grounding that your mental processes enjoy. Your strong mental position may also be the result of your successful integration of the mental and emotional spheres of your psyche.

As an individual with Mercury in the 4th House, your mental energy tends to be basic to how your personality functions.  Those functions symbolized by Mercury tend to lie at the root of your being and your personality. You may also have a tendency to mentally get to the root of things. However, it may also be the case that your mental energy can become buried or ignored, lying underneath the surface, but largely untapped. If this is the case, your mental energies will seem weak and passive.

불안정성

Having Mercury in the 4th House, you are intuitively aware that there is something that underlies the conscious ego that is more powerful and real than the ego. You also sense, if only subconsciously, that the mind is capable of uncovering this power. However, being insecure within yourself, you suppress and confine your own mind so that your ego-existence remains unthreatened. You, therefore, busy your mind in the everyday fabric of life with which you are familiar and over which, through force of habit, you are able to maintain control.

With Mercury in the 4th House, your mind runs in predictable, preconditioned grooves and remains confined to its own little world. You do not give your intellect too much importance, so it does not develop. You have little curiosity about what lies beyond the realm of family and routine experience. You make no attempt- in fact, you are even resistant – to learn more about the wider world beyond. If you feel threatened by disturbing ideas, your natural reaction is to retreat, ignore and become preoccupied with your own private world.

Intellect’s Focus

As an individual with Mercury in the 4th House, your intellect, if it is developed, tends to be focused on basic questions.  Why and how, what is behind this phenomenon? You are likely to have a desire to get to the root of issues or problems. You may also be interested in the past. The study of history or genealogy is natural. An interest in family dynamics may translate into an interest in sociology. If you are not so intellectual, your mind is likely to be engaged in family and domestic matters.
