Mercury in Aquarius in the Sixth House

The placement of Mercury in Aquarius indicates you have a need to function mentally with originality and freedom. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Aquarius are a result of this need to display mental force and to distinguish yourself as an individual through your ideas. Mercury is generally well placed in Aquarius. This is symbolized by the natural trine between Aquarius and Mercury-ruled Gemini. Aquarius’ fixed air quality symbolically strengthens the mental energies inherent in Mercury, giving them force and confidence.

Although there is inherent compatibility between Mercury’s airy nature and the air sign, Aquarius, the functions symbolized by Mercury tend to work at a more ordinary and mundane level than is commonly associated with Aquarius. Rather than being a source of tension, however, the Aquarian energy tends to elevate and broaden the capacities of the Mercury-associated functions. However, if your mental energies or capacity have difficulty rising to this heightened level, those functions are likely to express themselves through the more negative qualities associated with Aquarius.

Insecurități

Having Mercury in Aquarius, if you are insecure, you are likely to become intellectually arrogant. Although you may be correct that few share your capacity for original thought, you generally overestimate your own “brilliance” and originality. You may even think that you are a genius. Your arrogance only causes you to mistrust others and creates cynicism toward a world dominated by “lesser minds.” Your mistrust and cynicism are actually a reflection of your own hidden insecurity about your mental abilities and also reflects your lack of ability to communicate your message so that others can understand it.

Mercury in the 6th House:

As the natural ruler of the 6th House, Mercury is well placed. It is the intellect, with its discriminating faculty, that is the psyche’s chief tool to accomplish the 6th House objective of self-refinement. Also, in the derivative spheres of  6th House activities – work, health and service – it is the intellect and the communication function that are most useful and usually provide you with the greatest  level of satisfaction. Thus, the functions symbolized by Mercury are those that are naturally brought to the fore in those activities that are associated with the 6th House. Typically, the mental and communication functions will be strengthened by their use in these 6th House activities.

Mercury’s placement in the 6th House symbolizes your tendency to apply your intellect to useful service. You are likely to gain a great deal of satisfaction from mental work and communication. A potential danger of having Mercury in the 6th House is that the mental and communication functions become limited through your absorption in the activities associated with the 6th House. These activities tend to practical and you may be disinclined to turn your mental energy to pursuits that do not have obvious utilitarian benefits.

For the individual with Mercury in the 6th House, the realm of self-improvement offers an avenue through which you can expand your mental realm. It may be true that you confine yourself only to those forms of self-improvement that show tangible benefit, but you also have opportunities for self-development on more subtle or transcendent levels. Here, the analytical faculties symbolized by Mercury are engaged more abstractly, but with a purpose of refining your personality and the self.

Insecurități

With Mercury in the 6th House, if you are insecure, you may be inwardly rebellious toward the task of self-improvement. This task ultimately involves subjugating your ego and you are too insecure to let go of your ego. You may lament your fate, which you may see as having cast you in a role of low position and servitude. Your mind is obsessed with complaint about your station in life, your work and your health problems. You see your life as a drudge and a bore. As an individual with Mercury in the 6th House, criticism comes readily to your tongue, while you react venomously to any criticism directed at yourself.

Intellect’s Focus

Having Mercury in the 6th House, your mind is turned to work and to matters of self-improvement, including health-related matters. Your work may be mental, or you may be mentally absorbed in your work. You may be attracted to programs that improve the mind, or to learning about ways to build greater health in the body. Your intellect is also likely to be engaged in a good deal of self-analysis with the object of discovering and correcting your faults. Another object of your intellectual activity may be to discover ways in which you can help others to improve their lives.
