Mercury in Leo in the Ninth House

The placement of Mercury in Leo indicates you have a need for mental creativity. Generally, there is a need, not only to be creative, but for others to know of and approve of your creativity. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Leo are a result of this need to know that others appreciate you and your mental abilities and creativity. Mercury is generally well placed in Leo. This is symbolized by the natural sextile between Leo and Mercury-ruled Gemini.

Leo is the Fixed Fire sign. The fire energy of Leo symbolically energizes the air of Mercury and fires the imagination. This is excellent fuel for the creative elements latent in the Mercury-associated functions. However, Leo’s fixed quality may give Mercury’s air too much force in one direction. Thus, the Mercury-associated functions become prone to stubbornness and, particularly, a will to dominate in your extreme desire for validation by others through acceptance of your thoughts and ideas.

Insecurități

As an individual with Mercury in Leo, if you are insecure as a person, then your intellect only becomes absorbed in your ego needs. Your own ideas must constantly be displayed for approval. If you do not gain this approval, you feel intellectually inferior. This may either cause you to retreat or to communicate your thoughts with such timidity and hesitation that rejection is almost guaranteed, or you may try to push your thoughts and ideas on others, trying to cover your insecurity with boldness. You may even claim creative genius for yourself, though really you are a master of bluff.

Mercury in the 9th House:

Although the 9th House’s core function, understanding, would seem to be a natural mental activity, Mercury is traditionally in detriment in the 9th House. The mental functions symbolized by Mercury tend to be focused on detail and on specific and separate facts. The mind collects and processes data. It communicates specifics. With such a narrow focus, the mind itself may have a difficult time assembling bits of data into a grand and comprehensive conceptual understanding. The mind must have the capability to pull back from its immediate involvement and contemplate the big picture if it is to successfully handle the demands symbolized by the 9th House.

Having Mercury in the 9th House, if your mind is strong and blessed with positive energy, it will be inclined to explore the world and intellectually form a comprehensive worldview. Still, you may experience some insecurity about whether all of your bases are covered or whether you have collected enough information to see the complete picture when you need to make a judgment. With Mercury in the 9th House, in looking at the larger picture, seeking understanding and expanding your horizons, you may still desire to immerse yourself in the minutiae of the subject and bury yourself with facts. Nevertheless, Mercury’s placement opposite the house it rules offers you the opportunity to develop your mental capabilities in both exact and broad dimensions, to extend your mental grasp and to avail yourself of an intellectually grounded understanding of things.

Insecurități

As an individual with Mercury in the 9th House, faced with a world that is too complex in its detail to be understood by you, you salvage your ego from complete frustration and humiliation by adopting a defensive position. One such position is to conjure a system in which you can believe without concerning yourself about whether your worldview conforms to reality. Instead, you conform reality to your worldview. This makes you highly opinionated and convinced that your understanding of the world is correct. With Mercury in the 9th House, another defensive response is to simply shut down the intellectual process, concluding that understanding the world is not important. You absorb information, receive impressions and experience the world at a sensory level but you make no attempt to understand it.

Concentrarea intelectului

Having Mercury in the 9th House, you seek to comprehend and understand the world from an intellectual perspective. You are likely to spend mental time trying to discover a system through which the world, or some particular aspect or problem, makes sense. You may study philosophy and religion or some other academic pursuit that can supply you with an intellectual paradigm. You may also experience intellectual stimulation through travel or other experiences that broaden your horizons. With Mercury in the 9th House, you are more likely than not, to be liberal-minded and open to more tolerant points of view. You are likely to enjoy exploring new topics. In fact, you may not be satisfied unless engaged in some type of intellectual quest.
