MERCURY PLACEMENTS FOR DISCERNMENT -
This was a Popular post (thank You All Very Much!) and I realized I didn't delve deeply into Mercury, BUT that is SO Relevant for Being Able Use Discernment!!!
Mercury is taking Pholus's hand, showing a connection Is Necessary Both ways-if Pholus had used the information he was given (the hesitation in his Nerves as an indicator) he might Not have Put himself in the Middle of a war that Didn't Concern him; and -
WE NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE INFORMATION WE'RE GIVEN BCZ IT CAN COST US OUR LIVES.
Intentional Holistic Healing was Created bcz I saw the detrimental impact of "listening to the professionals" on both family/clients & I wanted to Provide alternative options to the Dangerous dependency on big pHARMa.
Discernment is Tricky in the age of AI and MISinformation and one sided narratives right?
WRONG. You need to Get into Your Body (Ta**us), Pay Attention to your Water signs for Intuition (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), & Look at Mercury connections.
Mercury Rules Gemini & Virgo-
Gemini is about data, details, (MIS)Information, CONDITIONING we receive in childhood from family/the world. Gemini is the sign of the Twins, asking us to consider & hold more than One idea at a time (this seems to be Incredibly difficult for people these days). Gemini is AIR-
"What you choose to Perceive PERSISTS." Air is about Perception. Gemini Rules our Nervous system-so if your Nervous system is Fried, How can you make Mentally Sound decisions? *You can't.
What You Consume Determines the state of your Nervous System. Food, relationships, MEDIA, environments, MANTRAS, etc. How are You holding Boundaries around what You take in? Are you Willing to Consume Different ideas so you can compare the data? Do you Only listen/Believe One Source? How does what you consume make you Feel? How does it support OR Harm Your Nervous System? Aren't YOU responsible for that?
I hear people complain ALL the time about the news and state of the world-well then Stop Fu***ng Watching 'the News' & Worry about YOUR Inner work, Your Inner Health; doing OUR work and Leading by Example IS the way to Create change-not screaming in a comment section Or a city street. *Not Sorry.*
Gemini is the basis for Sagittarius - the wise teacher & how we Liberate ourselves (or don't) from the Beliefs we were conditioned with. Mercury is Mindset/Communication - what You Believe Matters. There Is Evidence we can "retrain our brain/body" and That is what I help women do through my work-I
DECONDITION from the BS you've been spoon-fed your whole lives so you can BE in Purpose that your soul signed up for.
Where Gemini takes in the details, Virgo organizes them. The Purified Virginal Earth Priestess on a Mission to Improve the Body, so the Soul can Serve the world. She pulls the information into the body, organizing, criticizing & perfecting, constantly Elevating. Virgo Rules the Liver-what gets taken In, Processed, Used, & Discarded.
VIRGO DISCERNS. What does your Gut tell you? It's our 2nd brain for a Reason, Yet women have been conditioned to Ignore it bcz we can't "Prove it." *Isn't it Interesting how many women suffer from Gut problems and autoimmunity bcz they are DOing Too Much?
Use my chart as an example - I have Mercury in Gemini (perfect placement) But it means I have to be Very Careful about the information/relationships I Immerse myself in. It Literally Impacts my Health (VIRGO). How is Lack of Discernment Impacting YOUR gut/health? I also have Venus in Gemini, which means I Have to Be consuming/Immersing myself in spaces/experiences of Value.
While I don't have Virgo placements other than asteroids, I Do have a Libra Stellium in 6th H of work/health/everyday life (Virgo Energy), so I need to be Very Balanced for my Health. People pleasing has been a Big Issue for me (Venus rules Libra) and it Has Impacted my health over the Years-when I'm not listening to or Honoring my Gut, my Body Will React Adversely.
Discernment is a Safety mechanism-but if you're consuming less than ideal information, or worried about looking perfect in presentation, or Constantly Lacking Boundaries around the info you take in and the way you self sacrifice, it's going to get Messy, complicated, & chaotic.
Working With your chart placements, investing in Embodiment rituals and herbal therapy are All Important ways to connect to and Honor your intuition!!
How does this information resonate for you and your chart?
