Mercury in Sagittarius in the Twelfth House

A colocação de Mercúrio in Sagittarius indicates you have a need to function mentally within broad and expansive constructs. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Sagittarius are a result of this need to be able to mentally quest and explore the world. There is an inherent tension in the Mercury placement in Sagittarius. This is symbolized by the natural square between Sagittarius and Mercury-ruled Virgo and the natural opposition between Sagittarius and Gemini, which is also ruled by Mercury. The Sagittarian propensity for ignoring detail in favor of the “big picture” can be frustrating and seem careless from the analytical and detail-oriented perspective inherent in the Mercury-symbolized functions. Likewise, the Sagittarian focus on the abstract idea clashes with the Mercury functions’ natural tendency to be concerned with the concrete and objective.

No entanto, também há oportunidades criativas nessa tensão. Sagitário é o signo de Fogo Mutável. A energia mutável do fogo de Sagitário estimula simbolicamente a natureza mutável e arejada de Mercúrio, levando-o a todos os cantos do mundo mental. Embora isso possa ser criativamente estimulante, a superabundância de energia mutável pode criar muita instabilidade e falta de aterramento para as funções associadas a Mercúrio.

Outra fonte de conflito potencial é o fato de o elemento fogo em Sagitário ser propenso à ação, enquanto Mercúrio atua na esfera mental. A mente pode incliná-lo à ação ou a atividade mental em que você está envolvido pode ser tão absorvente que você procrastina a tomada de qualquer ação concreta.

Inseguranças

Com Mercúrio em Sagitário, se você for inseguro, não conseguirá enfrentar a dor da desilusão de conceitos mentais estabelecidos que naturalmente deve ocorrer se você quiser ir além desses conceitos em direção a uma compreensão maior. Isso ocorre porque esses conceitos mentais estabelecidos sustentam seu ego e suas ideias de quem você é. Você prefere permanecer julgando e mantendo-se no controle e no controle de sua própria vida. Você prefere permanecer julgando e se agarrar aos preconceitos que reforçam seu ego do que entender a verdade. Portanto, para defender seu ego contra um entendimento que possa ameaçá-lo, você se absorve na busca do frívolo. Mentalmente, você persegue a "diversão" ou passa de um entretenimento mental para outro. Dessa forma, você evita a busca por um entendimento mais elevado.

Mercury in the 12th House:

Mercury in the 12th Casa is a difficult placement for Mercury, given Mercury’s association with mental forms that are specific, concrete in nature and able to be categorized and known. The 12th House symbolizes those things that are hidden, that are ambiguous, universal and transcendent and for your mind to be focused on this level of existence may be difficult. With Mercury in the 12th House, you may find it difficult to find anything that you can mentally latch on to. You may become confused about what it is you are supposed to learn or know and may question whether there is anything that can be definitely known. This confusion and frustration may cause you to devalue your mental capabilities or to want to avoid mental activity.

Having Mercury in the 12th House, your mental and communicating faculties may appear weak or you may be unaware of the mental side of your personality and psyche. It may seem as if your mental capabilities evaporate or disintegrate. It is only when you consciously face the ambiguities and unknowns of life that you are likely to find your mental strength and be able to develop your mental faculties.

As an individual with Mercury in the 12th House, you may employ your mental and communicative energy to help others once you face the existence of pain and suffering in the world. Grasping the intuitive component of the mind, you may tackle difficult and subtle mental problems once you accept that there are no clear-cut and simple answers. Realizing that there is much in life that is unknown, with Mercury in the 12th House, you may turn your mental energy to uncovering what lies hidden and bringing the undiscovered to the light of knowledge. Coming to grips with the confusion and disorganization that besets you, you may use your mental faculties to gain more organization in your life.

Inseguranças

Having Mercury in the 12th House, faced with confusion and doubt and an inability to mentally form a stable world in which your ego can safely reign, if you are inwardly insecure, you will adopt a subconscious defense mechanism to preserve your ego-consciousness from disintegration and collapse. This generally involves the creation of a fantasy world, a mental construct in which your ego can safely operate and within which it is king or queen. With Mercury in the 12th House, you may engage in various subterfuges, directed both at yourself or others, in order to preserve this fantasy. You become an expert at hiding facts and realities. Although your mental world may appear to be falling apart to others, from your own point of view it is something you can grasp onto. One danger with Mercury in the 12th House is that you may grasp onto a fantasy that involves masochism, substance abuse or self-dissipation.

Foco do intelecto

With Mercury in the 12th House, you are likely to be intellectually interested in exploring the unknown and the mysterious. This may include the mysteries of life and death, the subconscious, the self, religion and mysticism, the problem of good and evil and the reality of phenomena. You may be particularly comfortable, mentally, with problems that are ambiguous and with solutions that are unclear. You may not be willing to be specific and absolute in your ideas and intellectual beliefs and you are more likely to be inclined toward a relativist intellectual perspective. You are less likely to commit to the idea that something is “this way” and more likely to state “these are the possibilities.”
