The messenger · Air, cardinal

Every thought of yours has a second hand: you barely finish arguing before you hear the counterargument inside. You phrase requests with a cushion: instead of 'send me that today', it comes out as 'would you possibly be able to take a look at this today?'. You reason better in conversation than alone: you need the other mind for your own thought to take shape.

The light of this placement

You can hold two sides of a question without caricaturing either, which makes you the right person to mediate a disagreement.

The shadow — what to work on

Weighing everything indefinitely is also a choice: the choice to let someone else decide for you and then disagree in silence.

Mercury: what it means in the chart

It shows how you understand things and how you explain what you understood. It also shows how you deal with paperwork, with the family group chat, and with that difficult conversation that needs to be had.

Libra

Libra is the discovery that there is another person with a weight equal to yours. It's the sign of agreement, of mediation, of the room carefully arranged so the conversation goes well. People with it strong think together, see several angles at once, and need to learn to hold a position of their own before rushing to consensus.
