This is so fucking important!!
This also applies to physical health.
Several of the founders of the Pagan Movement from the sixties are dead because someone convinced them to try herbal teas and pretty rocks instead of, like, chemo. And by the time it was clear that it wasn't working, it was too late.

“What are mercury signs?”
Mercury is the planet of communication, coordination, creative expression, and information processing. Your mercury sign can tell you how you think, how you analyze situations, how you recognize patterns, how you write, how you talk to yourself & others, communication style and everything above.
“What does the house my mercury sign is in represent? And what does it mean?”
Mercury in the houses is seen when it comes to communicating with others, depending on the house, it can be the part of your life where you are most analytical & communicative.
★──────────★─────────★
MERCURY IN THE 1ST HOUSE:
First of all, this placement is extremely intelligent and very intuitive. You will see them be analytical literally every day of their life. They can probably figure out the meanings of tricky phrases like poems, very easily. They dig deep beneath the surface, and know the true meaning of things. It’s possible for them to talk extremely fast, and with passion. They’re very curious, flexible, and blunt. They wonder a lot what the world has to offer, and love to debate, discuss, and learn. They like sharing information and know how to see different perspectives. They may have a natural talent for speaking or communicating. They may appear very youthful, perhaps a big head, long faces, big, unique teeth/mouth, long limbs, angular face, small facial features. They may also have strong and healthy bodies if mercury is in a good sign. Defined noses, with cheerful/tired expressions as well. Green looks good on them as well as grey, yellow, and white. Blonde may make a good hair color for these people too! They know when people are lying, and this is a very useful skill to have. People notice & find attractive the way these people talk, it’s very charming perhaps even formal. They may change up their appearance and identity a lot which can make them almost unrecognizable to other people. They have a very busy and loud internal voice. People can never tell what they’re thinking, and it’s easier for them to think while they’re talking. People can also be very impressed with their vocabulary, and they have both masculine & feminine qualities. I’ve seen that they might accidentally talk over people as well, and have a very attractive voice. At times though, people may think they “talk too much.” Their minds can be very chaotic at times, but they still can’t be manipulated.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 1st house: Katy Perry, Selena Gomez, Kourtney Kardashian, and Gigi Hadid.
MERCURY IN THE 2ND HOUSE:
So first of all, natives with the moon in the second house can actually make money through communication, sharing information, writing, and speaking! But they actually have trouble finding jobs OR they have more then one job. They like writing, specifically poetry! And they like talking about their possessions or their opinions. Their mind is literally structured for making & handling money. They can be a bit shy, but they genuinely don’t speak on anything until they’ve researched and know what’s what. These people use their logic for material goals, and might think about public speaking as a career. They DO NOT like being forced to do things, and they like to work at their own pace. Their father might be very proud of them, (depending.) I’ve seen that when someone has this placement, a lot of people usually go to them because they’re very resourceful! They have very soothing voices, and aren’t impulsive or spontaneous speakers. Their intelligence is seen by anyone who meets them, and they make smart/good negotiators. They are also good with numbers/money and business, but they don’t make it a priority in their life. They may also become bank or financial advisors! They may constantly think about their manners when meeting people, earning more abilities, and financial obligations. They’re wise but somewhat self-centered at times, and they are literally dedicated to older people like their father, teacher, or elders. These individuals may also have a big sweet tooth! Their voice is good for speaking about money & things like that. They may give their opinion without people asking for it. Their minds are usually calm depending on the sign, and almost always thinking about the things they have/want to have or money.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 2nd house: Taylor Swift, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Kim Tae-hyung.
MERCURY IN THE 3RD HOUSE:
These people spend a lot of time learning about new topics.. they’re also very mentally adept and they know it! There’s a possibility people with this placement read a lot of books, and they actually enjoy it as well.. it’s either that or they LOVE writing & might actually become a writer. They enjoy short small distanced trips, and are very sarcastic. With this placement, anything is possible (verbally) so they need to be cautious with the words they say to people. They’re also the type of people to join in on random conversations. They’re also bold because they like to try everything that comes their way, but their interests aren’t long-term, and they have a short attention span. they hate staying in one place for too long, and they lack a lot of focus at times that it’s needed. These people may also be really good at math OR genuinely hate it. They’re also prone to nervousness, and idleness. Communication comes natural to them, and they are extremely good at it. They have talkative, and developed speaking. Their mind is always quick & can reach levels of genius. They adore news/blogs/gossip, and they may have a lot of lists or diary’s. They may also bond really deeply with their siblings without knowing it, and have a lot of communication with them. Their conversations with their siblings consist mostly of debates and intellectual stimulation. They may have a lot in common with them as well. Yes, they have a quick mind but that mind needs an active body to work and that’s sometimes where they fail. They may also be able to heal people with their words. They are genuinely, overactive analyzers. The way they speak is very expressive, and communicative. Their minds are very quick, and even though they can heal with words, they can also kill.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 3rd house: Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, Emma Stone, and Edgar Allan Poe.
MERCURY IN THE 4TH HOUSE:
These individuals have extremely good & lasting memory and seldom forget, or forgive. They have deeply hurtful and rooted memories as well. They have a hard time feeling content, and are almost always unsure if they should be doing more. They think a lot about the past and may be interested in historical fiction as well. It’s essential for them to feel inspired/motivated by their home & family because if they don’t, they will search for that feeling somewhere else. Being able to talk openly and freely with the people/family they care about is very important to them, and they are drawn to learning about their roots/family, (their past, traditions, lineage.) These people have a hard time expressing how they feel, and can also be quite stubborn and subjective, especially in regards to trying new things. They can also be arrogant at times, even if they’re from a poorer background, and speak with a sophisticated manner. This is also a very intuitive placement, like the people who hold it just KNOW things, It’s scary. Their ancestors may also be in close contact with them spiritually, but sometimes they don’t realize this!! (look for signs, synchronicities, etc.) Their mother may be very mentally strong and have specifically Gemini/Virgo placements. These individuals communication & thinking are, in some way, very prominent in their life. It is possible to have good support from their mother at times as well, (depending!) There were also many intelligent people in the family where the native was raised. They use their emotions to get what they want from time to time. They observe people quietly. Their minds may seem like home to them, where they can truly express themselves without saying a word.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 4th house: Harry Styles, Jennifer Aniston, Megan Fox, and Julia Roberts.
tMERCURY IN THE 5TH HOUSE:
Their self expression can sometimes be detrimental. They’re the type of people to walk into a room and tell a story nobody asked for..but people still enjoy it. They make very good actors too! They think a lot about scenarios involving them, and may even talk about them to friends. Their voice may sound playful, and childlike + that’s how they act. They do have grand voices though. Their imagination is very enhanced, and wide. They like to see their loved ones smiling too. This placement is very creative with what they say, and how they say it. They’re also just creative in general. These people may cross other peoples boundaries unknowingly, and that’s why it’s good for the native to know people’s boundaries. They make a lot of jokes, and sometimes people laugh, but sometimes people don’t OR they make jokes in their head. These individuals like watching comedy as well! They know how to keep things fun and fresh, they definitely know how to make people smile. They may enjoy word games, and they can be quite flirtatious and entertaining. These people are more likely to have a very active romantic life, they’re incredibly enthusiastic and energetic when they want to be. They express themselves a lot through communication, and any of the arts. Songwriting may peak their interest! They may also flirt a lot, especially with people who they aren’t interested in & like to tease people. They also present things in an interesting way! It’s very fun for people to see/hear. People like hanging out with them. I’ve also noticed that they can be rather bossy to people. They are also good at impersonating others. They’re the type of people that think certain things look easy to do, but then it’s hard for them to do it! Their minds are filled with the things they enjoy.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 5th house: Khloe Kardashian, Kamala Harris, Steve Jobs, and Timothée Chalamet.
MERCURY IN THE 6TH HOUSE:
Their minds also move very fast! They are hard workers, that might hate having free time because they wanna feel constantly busy/accomplished. They’re very smart though! They want to gain knowledge to use for later, but they also NEED to relax. They probably always know best, but they might not share their problems with anyone. They can also be mildly to extremely stressed at times. They’re the type of people to use a planner so that everything’s nice & organized. They may like perfecting the way they speak, and the way they pronounce things. They also do have perfectionist tendencies from time to time, (Or all the time!) They may also give good directions for people to follow. They can overthink things A LOT, and tend to worry without needing to as well. They pay attention to even the smallest of details and can become sidetracked. Health may be something that’s always on their mind, and good diet is a must. Their minds never stop working, and this can be very positive but very negative. They solve problems quickly, they’re organized, detail-oriented, and nothing gets by them. But when they overthink and worry, they feel deeply anxious, so they definitely need an outlet for this nervous energy. They may also have a lot of people that talk about them. Sometimes, they may also feel like what they have to say is useless in a way, so they may not speak up about it. When they’re faced with difficult situations, they don’t really let their emotions take over (depending) and instead, they trust their logic. They could also be very hard to reach emotionally, and they are reserved, (Also depending!) They also experience a lot of critical thinking. Their minds are extremely astute, not letting anyone or anything fool them.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 6th house: Barack Obama, Kurt Cobain, Charles Manson, and Wendy Williams.
MERCURY IN THE 7TH HOUSE:
It’s hard for people with this placement to commit to something, and when making decisions, they look at the pros and cons of everything, especially in relationships which can make them a bit indecisive. They’re the type of people to ask their friends/family wether they should do something. They have trouble thinking and looking about the future. They may be attracted to mental intelligence, and they solve problems by talking about them. They may prefer one on one conversations instead of group conversations, and they like being in contact with their crush/partner 24/7! They want to be with someone who truly understand them and how they think. They are very up to date on what’s going around them, what’s going on in the world, etc! They also want a partner who’s up to date as well. These people may also view debate as a form of flirtation, and they like small short trips with their partner. It’s possible for the native to get married young too! They can be very social and talkative. They are good at persuading people and they know how to calm a situation down. You should come to these people for advice about your love life because they really enjoy taking about anything related to love. They focus more when they’re alone, and when they’re able to hear their own thoughts. They really crave love, and to spend time with someone who genuinely understands them, this is one of the ways they try to fill the void in their heart. They also have a very eloquent and expressive personality! They may also analyze their relationships with other people a lot. They are wise, and soft-hearted as well as practical and simple. These people are good at negotiating with others as well! Their minds are filled with love, wether it’s romantic or platonic.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 7th house: Ariana Grande, Kendall Jenner, Justin Timberlake, and Jared Leto.
MERCURY IN THE 8TH HOUSE:
People with this placement are super intuitive, they are also good researchers! They transform through knowledge, communication, and through how they communicate with themselves. They also may inherit some money from their siblings, surprisingly. They can solve complex riddles, matters and basically anything complex. Depending on the mercury sign, they have the ability to make money through investing. They can be very secretive when it comes to discussing things about themselves, thats why a lot of their relationships aren’t “real” and they feel like the bond isn’t so strong. They may also like learning about the occult, spirituality and such. They are good at piecing together information, and communicating it with other people. They would do well as archaeologist, detectives, etc because they do really good with analyzing data! These individuals can be very suspicious of new things, and may like old things, (like history, etc!) These people will most likely feel comfortable talking about the occult, death, sex, and their possessions. I’ve noticed that a lot of people with this placement see things differently then other people usually would, but on the other side, they can be judgmental or impulsive. They will literally say what they want to say, and don’t care if your feelings get hurt. They know how to read people like a book, and figure out their reasons for doing certain things. They have very obsessive and destructive thoughts at times, that are harmful. They’ll try to lure you out of your lies & have a perfect strategy for doing so. Their minds are filled with mystique and mystery, always wanting more.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 8th house: Lana Del Rey, Tom Cruise, Kylie Jenner, and Chris Evans.
MERCURY IN THE 9TH HOUSE:
Natives with mercury in the 9th house have very brilliant ideas! They are always on the search for knowledge, and love traveling. They might’ve even been traveling since they were younger. When they can’t travel, they will read books/articles & such to learn about different cultures, languages, religions, and philosophies. They tell stories in very entertaining and interesting ways, It gets everyone’s attention just like that. If they have an opinion, you will hear it. These individuals will want to have evidence and facts before arguing or taking a stance, so it is a great placement to have. They can also be very blunt at times, to the point where others consider it “bold.” They can also be very witty, and flirty if they really want to be. Impatience is a big keyword for these people as they dread waiting for things + people. I’ve noticed these natives can be very consistent with what they do, or say. Surprisingly, they can be very wise although funny at the same time. They’ve been through a lot of experiences that provide them with knowledge and advice + wisdom to give to others. These people like learning different languages, especially in songs and can easily memorize + learn different words and phrases. They’re very spiritually in tune, and receive messages from the universe easily. They make good teachers and astrologers. This placement can make a person laugh often. They are highly adaptable to different ideas, religions, and point of views. Their minds can get stuck in the clouds a lot, just because there is so much to contemplate and think about in this world that interests them.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 9th house: Gwen Stefani, Cindy Crawford, Kendrick Lamar, and SZA.
MERCURY IN THE 10TH HOUSE:
These individuals are always thinking about how to achieve their goals, especially career wise. They may feel like things aren’t challenging enough for them, so this results in switching up their jobs, etc a lot. They can make good doctors or singers and are really good at anything relating to marketing, sales, and investing. Their voices are very commanding/demanding and it just makes you want to listen to them. People can be intimidated by the way they talk, but they’re actually friendly and will do anything for the people they care about. They’re like a lightbulb, always having new ideas. They may frequently talk about their career, reputation, status, and accomplishments. Their siblings, cousins, and neighbors may be very prominent in their success, or career. Recognition for them can be obtained from writing, their achievements, etc. These people are usually outgoing and extroverted, they are very alert and have a quick mind. Very ambitious, successful people. They’re genuinely very smart, and people notice this at first- they are also very neat, and usually on time which makes the people around them happy. They value education, but it’s more of a step to them becoming successful.. at least, that’s how they see it. They are definitely highly ambitious people that chase their goals though, no doubt. They know what they have to do to reach their goals, and don’t back away. They’re also all in when it comes to their career, which makes them hard workers. Their minds can be very tiring, looking for ways on how to achieve your aspirations is not easy.

MERCURY IN THE 11TH HOUSE:
People with Mercury in their 11th house communicate with their friends a lot, they like telling them everything & just overall talking to them. They themselves are very chatty and social, they like exchanging their ideas with groups of people. Many people may come to them for advice as well. They’re quite inventive and most of the time, they’re very friendly, and this wins people over. They like expressing themselves (depending on the moon sign), and they think a lot about the future, probably setting goals for themselves but changing them constantly. They respect intelligent people who have original ideas because they themselves are like this. Although, they may have trouble finding true friends that are actually there for them they still tend to have friendly, fun, talkative friends that aren’t really true friends but just acquaintances/peers. These people may even switch their typing style often, or can just easily adapt to other peoples communication styles. This is a very good strength too, because it can cause them to get along with many people. They can be very interested in how society works as a whole, and like to understand the dynamics present in a group of people. They are more rational rather then emotional (especially if the Mercury sign is an earth or air sign). Being involved in social activities makes them feel useful, they may like volunteering and helping people. They know what they want, and how to get it, but it just takes them a little bit of time. They have a unique way of getting things done, and it may seem strange to others, but it still gets them results. These people are the the type to say ambiguous things or just simply confuse people. Their minds are a very interesting place to be in and are flowing with creative ideas.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 11th house: Angelina Jolie, Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, and Nicki Manaj.
MERCURY IN THE 12TH HOUSE:
There are honestly many misconceptions about Mercury in the 12th house, some being that people who have this placement are “dumb” etc etc, but this is actually not true. They are in fact just very forgetful because of how they tend to be stuck inside of their head a lot. They may miss details, may forget how to pronounce things, and make the same mistakes again (grammar, pronunciation, etc). They are naturally very timid & nervous and may think this is an affliction they need to overcome. Their mind can feel a little bit euphoric at times as well without needing to get high. These people may have had a past life where they were great communicators, and quite intellectual but they may have worked their whole life and didn’t get to advance very far. Depending on the sign the native has in Mercury, they aren’t often great story tellers, their stories may have missing parts or just be plain, either that or they can really have a talent for it. They can even space out in the middle of explaining something, but they actually very naturally intellectual, especially in the things that go deeper than the surface. They also really love to share and teach their knowledge. They may have trouble coming out of their shell, and this is something they’re meant to work on because they need to express themselves. This placement makes the native extremely intuitive and knowing. They have so so so much mental creativity and may find it easy to meditate + meditation is very good for them. These individuals are consistently speaking from their own subconscious to somebody else’s subconscious so their words may be hard to figure out or discern when you’re talking to them. Again, they may seem a little slow to other people but that’s actually because they’re getting and processing a lot of information, they may even find themselves just knowing things without anybody having to tell them. Their minds are a very soothing, vulnerable, and spiritual place to be in.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 12th house: Kristen Stewart, Beyoncé, Keanu Reaves, and Joe Biden.

People like hanging out with them. I’ve also noticed that they can be rather bossy to people. They are also good at impersonating others. They’re the type of people that think certain things look easy to do, but then it’s hard for them to do it! Their minds are filled with the things they enjoy.

MERCURY IN THE 6TH HOUSE:
Their minds also move very fast! They are hard workers, that might hate having free time because they wanna feel constantly busy/accomplished. They’re very smart though! They want to gain knowledge to use for later, but they also NEED to relax. They probably always know best, but they might not share their problems with anyone. They can also be mildly to extremely stressed at times. They’re the type of people to use a planner so that everything’s nice & organized. They may like perfecting the way they speak, and the way they pronounce things. They also do have perfectionist tendencies from time to time, (Or all the time!) They may also give good directions for people to follow. They can overthink things A LOT, and tend to worry without needing to as well. They pay attention to even the smallest of details and can become sidetracked. Health may be something that’s always on their mind, and good diet is a must. Their minds never stop working, and this can be very positive but very negative. They solve problems quickly, they’re organized, detail-oriented, and nothing gets by them. But when they overthink and worry, they feel deeply anxious, so they definitely need an outlet for this nervous energy. They may also have a lot of people that talk about them. Sometimes, they may also feel like what they have to say is useless in a way, so they may not speak up about it. When they’re faced with difficult situations, they don’t really let their emotions take over (depending) and instead, they trust their logic. They could also be very hard to reach emotionally, and they are reserved, (Also depending!) They also experience a lot of critical thinking. Their minds are extremely astute, not letting anyone or anything fool them.

MERCURY IN THE 7TH HOUSE:
It’s hard for people with this placement to commit to something, and when making decisions, they look at the pros and cons of everything, especially in relationships which can make them a bit indecisive. They’re the type of people to ask their friends/family wether they should do something. They have trouble thinking and looking about the future. They may be attracted to mental intelligence, and they solve problems by talking about them. They may prefer one on one conversations instead of group conversations, and they like being in contact with their crush/partner 24/7! They want to be with someone who truly understand them and how they think. They are very up to date on what’s going around them, what’s going on in the world, etc! They also want a partner who’s up to date as well. These people may also view debate as a form of flirtation, and they like small short trips with their partner. It’s possible for the native to get married young too! They can be very social and talkative. They are good at persuading people and they know how to calm a situation down. You should come to these people for advice about your love life because they really enjoy taking about anything related to love. They focus more when they’re alone, and when they’re able to hear their own thoughts. They really crave love, and to spend time with someone who genuinely understands them, this is one of the ways they try to fill the void in their heart. They also have a very eloquent and expressive personality! They may also analyze their relationships with other people a lot. They are wise, and soft-hearted as well as practical and simple.

They also may inherit some money from their siblings, surprisingly. They can solve complex riddles, matters and basically anything complex. Depending on the mercury sign, they have the ability to make money through investing. They can be very secretive when it comes to discussing things about themselves, thats why a lot of their relationships aren’t “real” and they feel like the bond isn’t so strong. They may also like learning about the occult, spirituality and such. They are good at piecing together information, and communicating it with other people. They would do well as archaeologist, detectives, etc because they do really good with analyzing data! These individuals can be very suspicious of new things, and may like old things, (like history, etc!) These people will most likely feel comfortable talking about the occult, death, sex, and their possessions. I’ve noticed that a lot of people with this placement see things differently then other people usually would, but on the other side, they can be judgmental or impulsive. They will literally say what they want to say, and don’t care if your feelings get hurt. They know how to read people like a book, and figure out their reasons for doing certain things. They have very obsessive and destructive thoughts at times, that are harmful. They’ll try to lure you out of your lies & have a perfect strategy for doing so. Their minds are filled with mystique and mystery, always wanting more.

They tell stories in very entertaining and interesting ways, It gets everyone’s attention just like that. If they have an opinion, you will hear it. These individuals will want to have evidence and facts before arguing or taking a stance, so it is a great placement to have.

They can make good doctors or singers and are really good at anything relating to marketing, sales, and investing. Their voices are very commanding/demanding and it just makes you want to listen to them. People can be intimidated by the way they talk, but they’re actually friendly and will do anything for the people they care about. They’re like a lightbulb, always having new ideas.

MERCURY IN THE 11TH HOUSE:
People with Mercury in their 11th house communicate with their friends a lot, they like telling them everything & just overall talking to them. They themselves are very chatty and social, they like exchanging their ideas with groups of people. Many people may come to them for advice as well. They’re quite inventive and most of the time, they’re very friendly, and this wins people over. They like expressing themselves (depending on the moon sign), and they think a lot about the future, probably setting goals for themselves but changing them constantly. They respect intelligent people who have original ideas because they themselves are like this. Although, they may have trouble finding true friends that are actually there for them they still tend to have friendly, fun, talkative friends that aren’t really true friends but just acquaintances/peers. These people may even switch their typing style often, or can just easily adapt to other peoples communication styles. This is a very good strength too, because it can cause them to get along with many people. They can be very interested in how society works as a whole, and like to understand the dynamics present in a group of people. They are more rational rather then emotional (especially if the Mercury sign is an earth or air sign). Being involved in social activities makes them feel useful, they may like volunteering and helping people. They know what they want, and how to get it, but it just takes them a little bit of time. They have a unique way of getting things done, and it may seem strange to others, but it still gets them results. These people are the the type to say ambiguous things or just simply confuse people. Their minds are a very interesting place to be in and are flowing with creative ideas.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 11th house: Angelina Jolie, Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, and Nicki Manaj.
MERCURY IN THE 12TH HOUSE:
There are honestly many misconceptions about Mercury in the 12th house, some being that people who have this placement are “dumb” etc etc, but this is actually not true. They are in fact just very forgetful because of how they tend to be stuck inside of their head a lot. They may miss details, may forget how to pronounce things, and make the same mistakes again (grammar, pronunciation, etc). They are naturally very timid & nervous and may think this is an affliction they need to overcome. Their mind can feel a little bit euphoric at times as well without needing to get high. These people may have had a past life where they were great communicators, and quite intellectual but they may have worked their whole life and didn’t get to advance very far. Depending on the sign the native has in Mercury, they aren’t often great story tellers, their stories may have missing parts or just be plain, either that or they can really have a talent for it. They can even space out in the middle of explaining something, but they actually very naturally intellectual, especially in the things that go deeper than the surface. They also really love to share and teach their knowledge. They may have trouble coming out of their shell, and this is something they’re meant to work on because they need to express themselves. This placement makes the native extremely intuitive and knowing. They have so so so much mental creativity and may find it easy to meditate + meditation is very good for them. These individuals are consistently speaking from their own subconscious to somebody else’s subconscious so their words may be hard to figure out or discern when you’re talking to them. Again, they may seem a little slow to other people but that’s actually because they’re getting and processing a lot of information, they may even find themselves just knowing things without anybody having to tell them. Their minds are a very soothing, vulnerable, and spiritual place to be in.
Celebrities with their Mercury in the 12th house: Kristen Stewart, Beyoncé, Keanu Reaves, and Joe Biden.

The Jungian Archetypes and the Zodiac
I was going through the Jungian Archetypes when i realised that there were 12, the same number as the zodiac signs. So i decided to correlate each sign with an archetype and explain why.
Bear in mind, this is my personal opinion, one that you do not have to agree with!
This is also just for fun! Don’t take it too seriously! This post is merely looking at similarities between the archetypes and the signs. This does not mean that each sign will exhibit all the qualities of the archetypes.
The Jungian Archetypes are a system of ideas that can be used to define behavior and characteristics in literature and other media. The system is derived from “collective unconscious” and the idea is proposed by psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Jung.
The system comprises of 12 archetypes.
There are also the “cardinal orientations” which is the underlying motivation for each archetype.
Ego - to make one’s presence known and admired
Order - to maintain structure in societal settings
Social - to foster genuine connections with others
Freedom - to break free from physical and psychological limits
The 12 Archetypes and their Cardinal Orientations
Ruler - order
Artist - order
Sage - freedom
Innocent - freedom
Explorer - freedom
Outlaw - ego
Hero - ego
Magician - ego
Jester - social
Everyman - social

Building connections and intimacy is very important for a Libra. Being a cardinal air sign it loves to connect and this sign of Venus finds pleasure in other people and creates and craves emotional and physical intimacy. With Libra it’s two not one and so the Lovers is the perfect archetype.

Planets in Retrograde
What impact do they have in our natal chart?
It isn’t unusual for a person to have at least one retrograde planet in their chart.
Planets in retrograde are usually compared to a mirror. Their energy is reflected right back at us, interiorized and expressed backwards. Having a planet in retrograde forces you dive deeper into it’s energy while being slightly fearful of it at the same time. Making it a constant struggle between acting or giving in to the fear.
For example, people with Jupiter in retrograde are fearful of expansion and taking risks, so instead, they retreat into their minds, expanding themselves in a mental and spiritual level.
Whenever you are about to express the energies of the planet, you refrain yourself, many times not doing it, whether it is out of fear or just the sensation of just not being able to do it. For example, if your mars is retrograde, you hesitate before expressing anger and assertion, usually ending up in an outburst after containing yourself for a certain amount of time.
Also, many times when a planet is in retrograde, it’s because things done to you as a child. For example, a person with mercury retrograde may have been told they weren’t smart enough, or forced to think in a certain way, paying no attention to what their true opinions may have been.
Do they affect aspects?
Yeah, in some way they do since the planet’s energy is redirected, causes confusion and changes the way aspects are expressed.
For example: saturn in a challenging aspect to mars (conjunction, square, opposition) makes people be (or believe to be) usually critiziced on everything they do, but when saturn is in retrograde, it might change it in the sense that they aren’t critiziced constantly by others but by themselves. It makes very self critical and perfectionist people and in the worst case scenario they can become unsatisfied with everything they do.
Are they karmic?
Yup. They tend to emphasize the lessons we didn’t learn in past lives and force us to focus on them by making them more reflexive. Some people carry past lives memories from the planets they have retrograde in their charts.
Retrograde Individuals
What makes a retrograde individual?
1. 3 or more retrogrades on the natal chart
2. Any personal planet in retrograde
3. One or more retrograde planets near the ascendant (1st house) or midheaven (10th house)
How does it affect the native?
It makes very introspective people, natives may be thinkers more than a doers. It’s good because they are very cautious and don’t rush into things, but can also lose some great oportunities and be prone to overthinking.
They may be very melancholic, since they are usually reminiscing the past.
Retrograde Planets
Mercury: this natives may fear telling people what they think, or even speaking at all! They have a very unique way of seeing things, and are very innovative. If you have this, you probably give a lot of thought to the most mundane tasks and may have a very quick wit, even if they don’t say anything. If it’s afflicted, you may have had problems speaking, like a lisp, for example.
Art is a great outlet for mercury retrograde people.
Venus: expressing love is hard for them, they hesitate to the point of overthinking before showing affection and there may be an inner desire and fear of commitment. Their minds are constantly imagining and creating (even if subconsciously) but they can’t take it to paper. They may feel they weren’t loved as children or that they were rejected when they tried to be affectionate.
This natives love very deeply, but they internalize it, originating a lot of pain.
Mars: they have a very hard time expressing their anger, or even repress it to the point of exploding. Having low energy is very common with this planet in retrograde, as well as a lack of ambition or drive to get what they want. Sex may have been taboo as children, leading to a strong difficulty to express a healthy sexuality. People with this need to be attentive not to forget to take care of their bodies. There’s a tendency to blow things out of proportion.
They may have grown up in a household where anger wasn’t well taken or were taught to be very pássive.
Jupiter: very philosophical and prone to procastinating, they keep thinking and planning but their intentions never come to shore. Optimism and beliefs are hard for them to express, and there’s a constant confusion with faith. They may have been disappointed by religion from a very young age, leading to resent and holding grudges towards God/church/etc.
There is a discontent with life that’s held in the subconscious. Having this planet in retrograde is a great opportunity to expand spiritually.
Saturn: these people feel very limited and disapponted on life, there’s a constant sensation of being trapped and just like with mars, lack ambition. They are very controlled, to the point of self-destruction, and can have a very bad image of themselves. Natives are talented and like creating things from scratch.
It makes serious and responsible people. Anything that requires self-discipline and patience is a good activity for saturn retrograde.
Uranus: natives have a tough time showing their weird side to the world, but feel somehow alienated from everyone else. They may dislike being around crowds and somehow desire to be unique, as paradoxical as it may be. It’s common to lack individuality and be influentiable by others. There’s a need to be original and experience new things, and they seek it in an unconventional manner, to the point of being chaotic in the old uranian fashion. Uranus retrograde has an internal despise towards societal norms.
As a child you could have been made believe that you were strange in a bad way, prompting you to try to be as common as possible.
Neptune: having this planet in retrograde makes very intuitive and spiritual people, that are in touch with their inner selves. It leads them to dissociate from reality and can even take them to the point of delusion. They bury their dreams deep within themselves, and rarely share them with anyone, maybe their parents dissed out their dreams since they were little, making them believe they were impossible to achieve.
Daydreaming is a common thing among this people, and even with their great creativity, is very difficult for them to express it.
Pluto: this is a very strong retrograde, it gives a great desire for control, as well as deeply kept secrets. Natives have learned since a very young age not to trust anyone, and carry that paranoia and suspicion everywhere they go, making them really good at seeing through people’s lies. They experiment a constant transformation of the inner self, becoming who they need to be in order to survive. Great resilience. May use sexuality as a weapon and love power games.
Prone to psychic abilities.
Hey guys, hope this helped u understand retrograde planets a little more! It’s a pretty complicated theme, but I like it very much.
Saturn, Uranus & Neptune.
Daily reminder that:
