Retrograde? Gives a more relaxed or slightly opposite (i.e less negative, more passive) opinion about you. What you do tends to not rock the boat much in terms of other's opinion of you professionally/publically.
What to check? The sign, degree, house & conjunctions your MC PC Mercury is in or making.
Scorpio & Pisces placements tend to have a big following, but an equally big trail of oppositions.

𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Aries (°1,°13,°25) | 1st House | Conjunct the ASC
People think you are a hard headed, stubborn and selfish person. Though, they also see you as the person to actually do something, someone that sticks to their word and isn't all talk. People may look to you to say or act on something that isn't fair or what most are afraid to do/say. To them, you are argumentative and quick to blow a fuse , but also quick to point out what needs to be. Some people may think you are rather difficult to work with and would rather move mountains than your opinions or your actions. Making everything about yourself or inserting yourself where you aren't needed i.e assuming problems are yours when they aren't.
Ex: I have a friend with Mercury in Aries °23 Aquarius in the 6th house. She's always strong and fighting for what's right. Everyone looks up to her where she's from for that very reason.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Taurus (°2,°14,°26) | 2nd House
People will note your clothing, your makeup, your looks and beauty a lot. Taurus tends to give you more likeability in terms of how people see you in a professional light. Complimenting you on your looks and presentability. People may think you are rather aloof at times, too friendly or a little dull/dopey or "slow". Some may also say you're "lazy" or don't give enough effort. However, this is usually a great placement to have if you're looking to build a "brand". Having expensive taste and a love for make-up or beauty.
Ex: Wonyoung & Michael Jackson have Taurus degrees in their mercury, they were both noted for their looks and how they dress, there tends to be a slight favoritism to them as well. Lisa also has Mercury in Taurus!
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Gemini (°3,°15,°27) | 3rd House
You could be talked about for your voice and your accent, people thinking you are funny and cunning. You talk and think as quickly as you act and are likely the person that people assume is down for a good joke or two. An extraordinary mind, but a chronic oversharer. People will note your quickness, your busybody tendencies or your bubbly personality. There tends to be this unserious, annoying and a little bit obnoxious or "gossipy" image to you as well. Whether it's positive or not depends on you & the rest of your placements though.
Ex: Blake Lively has Mercury in Gemini °18 Cancer in the 9th house. For the most part, she does prove to be well liked and many people did find her to be entertaining and funny, but she can seem rather out of touch or annoying at times. That's coming from the articles that came out against her & the many commentaries that surfaced following her "bad person allegations". Again, the MC PC is the public opinion of you.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Cancer (°4,°16,°28) | 4th House
People may get attached to you easily, and find you very relatable in a way. It's likely that you are surrounded by women or work with women a lot so they are usually comfortable telling you their life stories and listening to yours as well! People tend to think of you fondly. Someone that needs to be protected in some way. Someone genuine and innocent. People think you are a softie, but on the downside people may see you as rather immature or overly emotionally driven. Someone that makes everything personal.
Ex: Marilyn Monroe has Mercury in Aries °14 in the 4th house. She is known/people always associated her with her looks, her on screen sexuality, and her head strong nature. Known to be supportive to women and noticably protected and advocated for Etta Fitzgerald's right to sing. People also thought of her as a kind and nurturing soul. This, is what the general public thought of her character.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Leo (°5,°17,°29) | 5th House
People think of you as someone fun to be around, someone that's always onto some dope shit lmao. Never boring to be around. You always have a way to capture other their attention however it is you grasp it in the first place is up to you. People may think you are rather loud and sassy, a little bit annoying or too much for some because of you tendency to be ostentatious and expressive. People think you are loud and proud in both presence and personality, usually seem through your work/creations but can also literally be you.
Ex: Michael Jackson & Cardi B have Sagittarius Mercury in the 5th house in their Midheaven persona charts. Doja Cat also has Mercury in the 5th.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Virgo (°6,°18) | 6th House
On a professional level, people think of you as someone very skillful and tactical. Someone that does their job really well or is cut out for what they do. Some may think of you as quite the workaholic. On the other hand, people are overly critical about you, everything you do is brought into light and scrutinized. People may spread nasty rumors about you too, saying you aren't cut out for your work or what you do. However, people may also see you as someone rude or ruthless and judgemental.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Libra (°7,°19) | 7th House
People think you are an incredibly professional person, someone with clear values and great etiquette. You have this "I'm better than you" energy that is portrayed in a non threatening way, women tend to really like you and think of you fondly. You may be quite well-known or talked about for your looks and your beauty or your aesthetic. Though there may be some that see you as rather vain or flirty and one noted.
Ex: Kim Kardashian has Mercury in Libra °24 Pisces in the 2nd house! She is known to brand herself as a high-class woman though there are certain.. critiques towards her initial climb to success in the first place (her Mercury also conjuncts Pluto so that makes sense). "You don't put a bumper sticker on a Bentley"
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Scorpio (°8,°20) | 8th House
People think you have a magnetic pull and impact. Polarizing opinions, people being overly sensitive towards you or when it comes to you. People either want to be you or want to be with you with no in between. It's like you play all the right notes and that will trigger a lot of people around you (whether through career or just your public image). Being obsessed, with you or literally hating your guts behind your back judging your actions saying you too rebellious, too explicit, some people may lie or spread nasty rumors about you too. While others love you to death, some may hate you to your grave.
Ex: Obama, Namjoon, Justin Bieber & Jungkook all have Mercury in Scorpio (while Justin has Mercury in the 8th). All three men are recognized to have people with polarized opinions of them publically. Some people swear by them & love them while others detest them. Markiplier also has Mercury in the 8th in Pisces °16 Cancer. He has a very big, and very loyal fan base that is emotionally connected to him.
Know who else has it? Jennie! "everybody's cool but when I do it I'm the problem". That basically sums it up.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Sagittarius (°9,°21) | 9th House
People think you are smart, optimistic, & difficult to predict which can be either a good thing or a bad thing. You may be well educated or seem like it. You are refreshing, entertaining and seem to be very luck and wise (you seem to always know something even if the info is useless), people may also think you are clumsy or messy. People usually look up to individuals with this placement however even if it does seem questionable in hindsight.
Ex: Audrey Hepburn has Mercury in Sagittarius °23 Aquarius conjunct Juno, Mars, Saturn & the MC. She is very well respected within the fashion and entertainment industry, noted for being a substantial influence, a real beauty with poise, professionalism, discipline knowledge and optimism.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Capricorn (°10,°22) | 10th House
People have a lot of respect for you and what you do. You thrive in your career and people will acknowledge that. Some people may be rather intimidated by you or think of you as rather highbrow. People tend to look up to you easily due to your professionalism. Taking your work and your duties seriously. Though some may think of you as rather "bitchy". In the 22nd degree specifically, you have a chokehold of sorts on your career. You are likely the person that switched up how things worked, the game changer. Though there is a rather erratic and snobbish side to you that people hold you very much accountable for.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Aquarius (°11,°23) | 11th House
You aren't beating the weird person allegations with this one pal. You are known for being a stand out character from the rest of your peers or wherever you are situated because of your mind and your actions, now whether that is a good thing or not depends on you. Just know that your influence shakes those around you in a profound way. Some may say that you are special and gifted as well. A freaky, open-minded icon.
𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 Pisces (°12,°24) | 12th House
People may see you as a rather illusive person, or someone that is hard to really understand, misleading and mysterious. Kind, helpful, self sacrificing. They may see you as either utterly good or utterly bad. People tend to be very curious about you, or apply their own speculation or vision in regards to who you are (who they think you are). You tend to gain a great following or people that secretly admire you in a way as well in a more idealistic way compared to Scorpio. People think of you as someone very artistic and intuitive. However, people may also think of you as unpredictable, unrealistic, manipulative and self destructive/self victimizing.
Ex: Taylor Swift & Miley Cyrus have Mercury in the 12th. Both garnered a lot of attention at a very young age through music and Disney respectively, but went down separate ways due to people switching up on them/villainizing them. Lisa also has Mercury in the 12th house in Taurus °4 Cancer.
( I have Mercury in Scorpio °24 Pisces in the 4th house. Well, that makes sense. ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ conjunct Jupiter, Union & fama for that matter. )

People think you are strong and opinionated, charismatic a natural leader and often a great presence to be around. People may look up to you a lot or have some sort of fondness to you because of your strong personality. People tend to be very attracted to you personality wise, seeing you as someone they can trust.
People think you are sensitive, kind and innocent but may be emotional and unpredictable. People tend to trust you and get attached to you easily as well.
Your love life, marriage, makeup, aesthetics & your beauty may be talked about often. Being complimented and even idealized especially by women or the beauty standards in general.
People may think you act rather brash and forceful or tomboyish, though it also highlights your sex appeal, your strength , resilience and people's sense of competition towards you (though it could also be your competitive strife itself that's pointed out).
People look up to you, you may be seen as well learned (cultured), thinking you are a big presence and tends to be a "representative" of something bigger than yourself, whether that'd be a culture (work, generational or otherwise). Also, I've noticed that people with this placement tend to get hyped up by people that like them i.e.their followers, believers or colleagues.
Ex: Kim Kardashian also has this placement ʕ´• ᴥ•̥`ʔ the chokehold she has on a lot of LA women I see online lmao. In a lot of ways she is the face/representation (albeit stereotypical) of "L.A. women".
People thinking you are well mannered but hard to please, you could be rather rigid or too strict with others or with yourself. You may be very mature or responsible in the eyes of those around you as well. Though you may be a bit of a stick in the mud to some.
People think you are kind and pure, you may have a very "squeaky clean" image that has a lot of patience and understanding. People may overlook you, but at the same time be misled by your kind appearance. It may be that nobody really sees you for what you are i.e seen as more innocent/clueless than you really are.
People thinking you are the opposite of the sign Mercury is sitting in, thinking you are loud, independent and a surprise to everything around you. You may be seen as strange to some degree but at the same time inspiring and entertaining to be around. You do not hide yourself or anything, showing things as they are. You have a genuine personality and people can see that/will talk/think of you that way.
People pointing out your flaws more than others, thinking you are promiscuous or shady and even manipulative in a toxic way. Self obsessed, or obsessive. Though people may also note your sexuality, and power/influence.
People may think you are frail or fragile in a way. Someone with darkness or sadness to them. You may have a very healing presence or voice itself. People tend to feel safe with you, but at the same time there are others that are triggered by your very presence. People may pity you or see how hard you've had it up til now. Others may make fun of you or bully you however if their insecurities or frustrations are touched when you are around.
You are very professional, people will talk about your work, and the fruits of your labour often. You may gain a lot of respect or notoriety for being a respectable image/brand.
It may be easy for people to like you, or you may catch a noticeable amount of attention naturally. People seem to enjoy talking about you or praising you in a way. You may be quoted for the things you say, or that your voice catches a lot of attention.
People may talk about your love story a lot, or have it immortalized with your reputation and image. Regardless of the circumstances, for some reason your union with your partner becomes part of your reputation/what people think or say about you on a reputational scale.
Ex: Priscilla Presley has Union conjunct Mercury in the 3rd house! Ask every woman infatuated with femininity, most of them can recount the entire story for you lol. There's even a movie about her relationship with Elvis based on her memoir "Elvis and Me"
People thinking you are Star material, talking about you, admiring & praising you a lot. You may be a role model in your industry/line of work/amongst people you work with/in the eyes of others. You just seem to have that "spark" that gets people talking.
Ex: Lisa Marie Presley has Mercury conjunct Starr in the 1st house!
💐 Conjunct 5129 Groom or 19029 Briede
People thinking you are very masculine, and attractive/feminine and lovely being wifey/husband material or even praised or talked about more as a wife/ husband. People.ay talk about your spouse a lot too for one reason or another.
