oh very deep thinker especially on matters of psychological and occult nature. someone who digs deep to find the reasons and real motivations of other's actions. You can also manage other ppl's resources well
I've always had this deep but out-of-touch longing to become a Hedge Fund Manager. I've always felt like I'd be great at managing others' assets. Do you think that having my South node in the 8th House harms or helps in this regard?
Mine is in scorpio and communication has never been easy for me, albeit having a far more practical and quick head. Sucks because it affects professional aspects.
I judge career through special soul and self factors determined in different ways than modern astrology does. But 8th house things are astrology, occult, surgery, archeology, finances, emergency services, psychology, managing crisis situations
Batman I know how that feels.I have Mercury retrograde in my first house of the self and restricting Saturn in my third house of communication. It literally feels like I have a blockage in my throat and when I am forced to talk for work it drains the hell out of me.
@@kisslordorochimaruI have Saturn in cancer in my 6th house in Gemini for Capricorn rising but 6th house is rules Virgo also another house of communication because mercury rules Virgo and Gemini is ruled by the 3rd house but I to feel a blockage in my throat when it comes to making a point or trying to make a statement my anxiety and fear kinda get the best of me at times mercury Rx is not easy to have very panful placement very misunderstood at times too.....over thinking is the worst side effect of mercury Rx ugh 😩😞😤
@@Pr.nce_youngg I have always had anxiety when speaking as well. Gemini rules my 6th and 7th houses. Mercury is in my 10th (Scorpio) retrograde. Pisces rules my 3rd and it’s ruler is in the 12th making a minor aspect 1*s semi square to mercury in the 10th. So, I feel you!
I have Mercury R in Pisces. Sometimes I think about the response for too long to the point of it being too late to respond without it being awkward, so i simply don't respond at all, but I sure do overthink it. When I see something on social media and I want to reply to it, I spend 20-30 minutes trying to write a perfect reply, but then end up not sending it loool. Twitter is torture.
One of my kids has Mercury retrograde in Pisces conjunct the sun and he is a little genius! He is about 2 years ahead academically. Plus he doesn’t stop talking!
how you express your self might be coming on a bit too strong, but it speeds up your logical mind processes and can bring talking first before thinking
both are retrograde, so listen to the videos describingboth Venus and Mercury retro. More artistic type of person. Venus is stronger in this case because it is in its sign of exaltation, so venusian themes will come out more positive
That's so uplifting, Lada. Thank you! I really see the positive effects of my Mercury Retrograde! It's in Gemini, which is a pleasant one! Mine is in the 12th house, so perhaps communication regarding the subconscious is part of my path. God bless you, Lada. XoXo.
And mercury in saggitarius is also naturally aggressive so your communication is confusing and aggressive so it's definitely hard for you to get your point across but I get it...
hi profession is determined by the soul planet and 2 other self factors, which take calculations from the Ascendant and the Mc and the 9th divisional chart--it is not very easy. Another way is not see the house position of the Sun or more planets in one house, but it is not very precise this way. Watch my video on sun in houses
My Rx Mercury is in Pisces but it's conjunct Sun and Jupiter. I've always been an over-achiever and am masterful at oratory - was Debating and Public Speaking Captain at High School plus regional Toastmasters champ. It's funny because in my earlier years my comnunication was very bad. I hear from adults in my life that I used to not even speak when i was younger - i guess i was in my head a lot. It was only later on in high school when i really started to express myself and i think it's because i was aware of my challenges i worked harder than most to improve my communication and thinking by debating (and losing more and learning) and reading like nobody's business. And that made me the excellent communicator i am today. LOTS OF EFFORT PUT IN BUT IT DEFINITELY PAID OFF! i think that's the Rx lesson you've taught me. The potential for mastery over our Rx planets is always there. Personally, it's when i became fed up of feeling a lack in my Mercurian qualities that i started to "overcompensate". I'm a veerrry practical person despite Pisces' influence but logical reasoning is still a challenge, i must say. i may be better than most but i'm acutely aware of how far behind i am. i'm working on it. Oh and I even received a Management Award before - much to my surprise but it makes sense now. Also my Mercury is in 10th house and i'm extremely entrepreneurial and ALWAYS ALWAYS DO TONS OF RESEARCH before going ahead with any idea!!! This helps a ton. Oh, and I'm Gemini Rising so- Thank you so much for this informative video.
I have mercury in retrograde and I think it is the influencing aspect in how I am able to express myself articulately and also helps me pursue my dreams in becoming an osteopathic doctor.
Super true about the organization skills! I have Mercury Rx in 3H. Definitely happy being a boss/manager/initiator (also, Cap Sun!). Thanks, Lada! Loved your visual aides with the leaves and stone. You’ve come a long way, girl! Two babies now in 2018-2019!
Great video Lada, I agree with you. I have Mercury Rx in Taurus in the 7th house. When I was younger as a child and teen I found it challenging to speak out my thoughts clearly because I seemed to want to really only speak out loud if what I had to say was correct or sounded like it was important but as I grew into adulthood I found that I started to write more and more and this is how I started to get more confidence with my communication skills. Now everything I do relies on my communication skills and as an adult many jobs that I have had over the years has allowed me to practice speaking and communicating with confidence. I had a lot going on with my mind internally when I was younger, I would think about things a lot on a very deep level (Natal Pluto trine Mercury) I would observe and process a lot before speaking. I know someone else who has Mercury Rx in Taurus and they are very verbal and highly intelligent but they also have Venus in Gemini in the 1st house.
me too i was called, the quite or sneaky one of two girls...now they can't shut me up. i will have a long conversation with anyone about anything. often call witty, i always have a come back line, now I'm a movie , song and poerty writer
Omg, thank you. I have mercury retrograde in my natal chart, and gemini is in my 12th house. I'm a comedian and writer. I have a very difficult time understanding others but I'm quite effective at getting my point across.
Hi I am using tropical zodiac, not siderial, the more ancient sources of astrology knowledge were using tropical astrology, and I get better results with it than the siderial
it is very well aspected! But its sign is not so good. The mind and rational and objective thinking does not feel well in the emotional Cancer, but it is strong still with this retro motion! Also the closer Me is towards the 1st house the stronger it is
I have mercury(11:53) retrograde conjunct ketu(19:47) and sun (20:44) all in Taurus. Sometimes people tell me to slow down. They say I take to fast. They say "what did you just say " Hear that a lot. But it could be retrograde Neptune in 3rd house. I using tropical zodiac.
Thanks so much Lada, I have mercury r conjunct the sun in my 2nd house of Aquarius. I'm still figuring out what it means, but this video gave me a way more positive understanding to myself as I try to read my birth chart. Much much appreciated 🙏🏽🤗
I really love how you explain the retrogrades, i really love it i have it in my chart with saturn sun and mars all conjuncting in 7th house. They all say when planets go back in motion is retrograde and makes the planet introvert and you say when it comes in between sun and earth. Please can you explain it because my pluto retrograde is conjuncting my partner's sun and my pluto is making a grand trin with sun moon and Mercury so i really want to know the effects of retrograde planets. Hearing you is so good gives hope but then there are other and i am a very obsessive person
born w/Mercury Rx 16 degrees conjunct Sun 18 degrees both in Gemini in 8th house. I've noticed, during retrograde periods, this provides me with the opportunity to re-think and take communications to a deeper - more integrated- level. Not always easy as this squares my moon in Virgo, but with patience stuff really does often turns out for the better which leads me to believe being born under retrograde is a favorable thing.
I have mercury retrograde in aquarius. October 2015 is when I really felt it. Things happen and my thinking is so much clearer and direct, I love it. Just feels like I'm always second guessing myself all the other times of the year when it's direct.
Hi Lada One of the best explanations of Mercury Retrograde in natal charts. It is an eye opener . I have Retro Mer in second house with Sun. I often find my ideas /views are not accepted and are dismissed. But after six months the same idea is OK. Are people with retrograde mercury able to anticipate with long time horizon ? or understand the complexity of the unfolding scenarios better ? would you please share your thoughts ?
Merc retro in Leo here, conjunct Jupiter and the Moon in 9th house. Have a gift for languages, talk and think very fast - but expressing my feelings takes a while, and my social communication is not great either, no small talk for me. I also find it hard to come up with questions to ask, I get my answers through interpreting things not asking questions.
thank you Lada i just notice today mercury was retrograding at my birth in virgo and I'm a virgo sun too. i won't be afraid anymore when it occurs! love&light
Lada, my Sun and Mercury are in Capricorn, Mercury was Retrograde in my natal chart. I find I am able to write well and can convey ideas rather well if I am confident in the topic in which I'm speaking. However, I do have a very frustrating time being confident enough to give my opinions, etc. Is this some other aspect of my chart causing this? 12/25/70 4:25am Houston,Tx. I have a lot of planets in Scorpio and Ascendant in 12th house.
My mercury (aquarius) is retrograde, saturn (pisces) in the 3rd house (aquarius) and I had a difficult time learning to read almost like my breath was stolen and I couldn't talk I also got made fun of in school for saying lots of um's. I don't stutter but I definitely don't talk somtimes out of fears I might do something like stutter. I did get good grades in school and have be complimented by more then a few on my ability to write and communicate (moon trine mercury). It takes a long time for me to warm up to someone to have a long conversation with them (capricorn sun) sometimes when I'm nervous I do the opposite and can't stop talking (mars conjunct mercury) if I'm really close to someone I have a tendency to dominate the conversation which I'm trying to work on and listen more instead
Hi Lada, My mercury is sitting in XI house as R with Jupiter in Cancer sign. How do you interpret this. My Asc is Virgo sign and it has Venus, Mars and Rahu in the first house.
Amazing video! I have Mercury retrograde in Libra, in the 9th house, conjuct with the Sun and Venus is also in the house and I never noticed that bad things of this placement that everyone talks about, what you said in the video, however, is pretty much like me.
Hie Lada, Thank you very much for this video. it is very informative. I have a retrograde mercury in scorpio together with saturn and ketu in 8th house. What do u think? Thanks..
Th positive side is that U can become a master in mind control..U r born to master mental discipline if U choose to!!! Saturn Mercury Venus makes U a genius organiser ..self confidence is th only thing that determines what we do with our innate talents..if U doubt, well .its nobody's fault..
My Mercury is retrograde in capricorn and yes I am very very buissness minded and always organizing my business with my planner and even I organize my children's day and what needs to be done and what what times. Highly organized at home love a clean space I am also a capricorn with moon and Aries so my mind is always go go 😆 how can I better my products my quality and so on 😊
Mine is retrogating in Scorpio, I have one bad aspect in Conjunction with Pluto, but in Conjunction with Sun as well, and in good aspects with Moon, Uranus, Neptune and AS. Is that good, since I have so many good aspects?
I have mercury retrograde and what u said makes more sense now since I have all the quality u mentioned .my mercury is third house in Virgo (exhalted) as I am a cancer ascendent
i have mercury Rx in 10th house along with sun in pisces according to western astro. but i have venus in aries with mercury Rx in pixces 11th housr..whsts the differnce? im so confused
I second those sentiments and ask if you'll be in the Atlantic City, NJ, area any time in the foreseeable future. (Me Rx in Libra in the 12th house. I find I function much better during the Rx. I'm a book editor, and the manuscripts assigned to me during those times are AWFUL! Muddled. Just horrible and headache-inducing.)
I have mercury retrograde(Scorpio) 10th house. It only makes minor aspects; semisextile Saturn(9Libra) 0*a, and semisquare Mars 0*a, and Neptune-1*s, both in 12th of Sagittarius.
Good at least i knw retro is not bad...yes mercury makes me communicate easily...i hv it in libra...please send me yr email.i need u to che k moi chart
I have an aspect from rahu in Virgo to retrograde Mercury sitting in Capricorn along with sun, moon, Mars, and Uranus. My difficulty communicating is because of rahu.... 😭😭😭😭
+Andrea Orozco Yes. But awesome :)) . You shall feel great then. Feed ants, fish, birds, whenever you feel with sugar, bread, grains ets. Or especially on Saturday and Monday. The rahu lifting will be more benificial next year.
Thank you for this new knowledge! I have Mercury retrograde in conjunction with the Virgo sun in my 6th house. I also have Venus and Mars all in the same house. How does this affect me?
I have Mercury retrograde in my birth chart. Gemini rising, Libra sun and I also have mercury in Libra. my mind is incredibly active. Sometimes too active. I'm a total scatterbrain and I have a tough time organizing my life. I don't know if that's because I don't have any Earth signs except for the South Node in Taurus but it's intercepted. I also have a 6 th house interception. I am however always seeking information. if I'm interested in something I simulate the information very quickly and I never forget it. a lot of people seek me out to ask me questions about the things that I know. The thing is is my disorganization has become a problem in terms of getting a career started. I also have Jupiter retrograde in my birth chart and I don't really know anything about that yet. I have Jupiter in Aries.
Hi Lada, I have mercury retrograde in my birth chart south Indian, in Sagittarius, along with south node. I have Jupiter R, in my ascendant Aries, according to some astrologers, I could not achieve my goals in my career due to this situation can you highlight. Thanks
hi, not at all-Retro jupiter is stronger than direct Jupiter, so is Retro Mercury...problems in career might be due to a planet in bad ladjitaadi avashta aspecting the career sector or running a difficult planet period.
I was born mercury combust exact conjunct my sun and retrograde and to the exact degree in the 9th house....and exact degree (1 orb now) in my 7th by progression. How could this be interpreted
I have a Libra Mercury Rx in the 10th house. It literally Opposes Saturn, Squares Jupiter, Sextiles Mars, and Trines Neptune and Uranus. No wonder people stare at me funny when I attempt to communicate my thoughts to them.
I read once a book on this aspect and the only thing i remember is that they are highly intelligent and intuitive so it is hard for them to communicate with the direct mercury people because the retrograde people are ahead or advanced.
Well, I have just a few aspects to mercury. They aren't good. I have mercury retro in aries in the third house. I have a hard time expressing myself. I get confused, reflect a lot, and I am shy. I feel defeated.
I struggle with school too ha ha! but for different reasons mainly laziness... and not really struggle just lazy .. so it isn't as good as it could be... I'm mercury in Aquarius retrograde with my Sun in Aquarius also and Mars retrograded in Leo
I have retrograde mercury in third house libra, but I feel like I over think and dabble into pessimism which results in laziness. could this be a result of sun, venus, and Jupiter conjunctions in the third house? The only other aspect is north node in tenth house Taurus.
hy lada, i have mercury just turned direct in aries 8th house. very slow moving only a few fractions of a degree a day in a boomerang yod quincunct uranus and ascendent and opp pluto. trine to moon, neptune, mars and saturn(g trine) i flow very easily in conversation but get very stuck in mental chatter and lots of procrastinating need to think everything through a million times. can get very stuck in my thinking. need to read a lot to get more ideas. anything that can help? btw ur lovely;-)
hii lada !! i regularly follow all ur videos !! and also learning vedic astrology as i get time !! i learn a lot from u on various aspects !! in my chart i have 8th house jupiter and my moon is in 2nd house in aquarius nakshatra purvabhadrapada-2 pada !! due to dis i will become a good astrologer because of jupiter and dis nakshatra people becum good astrologers if dey r into it !! and i have strong urge to learn new things day by day in astrology !! even u have 8th house jupiter na !!! my question is i have 11th house mercury retrogade but mercury is with sun and mars in da same house and these 3 planets r situated in scorpio sign !! its good for mars as it is in its own sign !! but is dis good for mercury as it is in enemy sign but mercury also gets energy from da sun !! myself a mechanical engineer now studying astrology !! i research a lot on many things which people dont know !! eg abt aliens,space travel,astrology,nadi astrology,abt tigers etcc and many more !! dis mercury retrogade will not pose a problem for me in future na !! or as dis mercury is in fiery sign scorpio will it hamper my mind or will it force my mind to take harsh decisions in future !! i doubt !! u say sumthng plzzz !! i admire u !!!
also mercury is v scorpionic/8th house mercury in 8th house, opp pluto quincunct uranus in scorpio. what do you think? crisis? death rebirth? penetrating mind natural psychologist?
HI SO RSPCTD MA'AM LADA .. MY MERCURY IS IN 8 HOUSE WITH SUN AND KETU AND MARS PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT THIS CONJUCTION.. THANKS A LOT MA'AM LADA . HAVE A NICE DAY..
Dear lada..always interesting your videos! Just a question..i have Me Retrogade in cancer 24.05 d. Is it bad or good sign for this? In your vid didnt talk ab having it in this sign. My MeR is also sestile mars and saturn, trine uranus and ascendent (scorpio). Thank you for help and time. Ps: always believed it was a bad thing the retrograde :) tks again
mam i have an exalted retrograde mercury in conjunction with sun and mars for capricorn ascendant. will i succeed in entrepreneurship. kindly share your views.
oh very deep thinker especially on matters of psychological and occult nature. someone who digs deep to find the reasons and real motivations of other's actions. You can also manage other ppl's resources well

Mercury R in Pisces conjunct Saturn lol It takes me hours to send a simple response to someone. Always re-thinking and re-checking
Yikes

i have my mercury in sagittarius in retrograde - so it's in detriment here, I do find communication hard, almost autistic level.
I'm late to your post, but you are not alone.
And mercury in saggitarius is also naturally aggressive so your communication is confusing and aggressive so it's definitely hard for you to get your point across but I get it...
I guess cognitive therapy to help with thought control...or if alone--some kind of meditative techniques...

Hi I am using tropical zodiac, not siderial, the more ancient sources of astrology knowledge were using tropical astrology, and I get better results with it than the siderial
it is very well aspected! But its sign is not so good. The mind and rational and objective thinking does not feel well in the emotional Cancer, but it is strong still with this retro motion! Also the closer Me is towards the 1st house the stronger it is
I have mercury(11:53) retrograde conjunct ketu(19:47) and sun (20:44)
all in Taurus. Sometimes people tell me to slow down. They say I take to fast. They say "what did you just say " Hear that a lot. But it could be retrograde Neptune in 3rd house. I using tropical zodiac.
interesting I have mercury retro in Taurus and a visual artist
Saaameee
if it has difficult aspects to it it might bethe reason
I have 6 planets retrograde in my chart including Mercury in Taurus and Venus in Aries. I have Sun Taurus, Moon in Gemini, and Rising in Scorpio.
Thank you Lada for your comment :) helpful and clear as usual..have a nice evening there

mine is retrograde in my 2nd house in the sign of Virgo but also my 2nd house has both Saturn and Rahu😢😢😢😤😭
Th positive side is that U can become a master in mind control..U r born to master mental discipline if U choose to!!! Saturn Mercury Venus makes U a genius organiser ..self confidence is th only thing that determines what we do with our innate talents..if U doubt, well .its nobody's fault..
My Mercury is retrograde in capricorn and yes I am very very buissness minded and always organizing my business with my planner and even I organize my children's day and what needs to be done and what what times. Highly organized at home love a clean space I am also a capricorn with moon and Aries so my mind is always go go 😆 how can I better my products my quality and so on 😊
Mine is retrogating in Scorpio, I have one bad aspect in Conjunction with Pluto, but in Conjunction with Sun as well, and in good aspects with Moon, Uranus, Neptune and AS.
Is that good, since I have so many good aspects?
I have mercury retrograde and what u said makes more sense now since I have all the quality u mentioned .my mercury is third house in Virgo (exhalted) as I am a cancer ascendent
i have mercury Rx in 10th house along with sun in pisces according to western astro. but i have venus in aries with mercury Rx in pixces 11th housr..whsts the differnce? im so confused
I have mercury retrograde in the 3rd house with Mars and Gemini. So I have good and bad?
I second those sentiments and ask if you'll be in the Atlantic City, NJ, area any time in the foreseeable future. (Me Rx in Libra in the 12th house. I find I function much better during the Rx. I'm a book editor, and the manuscripts assigned to me during those times are AWFUL! Muddled. Just horrible and headache-inducing.)
My god.. u r so True..really appreciate it.. Thanks loads
You Rock Lada. I would love to have a reading with you in person.. Will you be in the NYC area anytime soon?
I have mercury retrograde(Scorpio) 10th house. It only makes minor aspects; semisextile Saturn(9Libra) 0*a, and semisquare Mars 0*a, and Neptune-1*s, both in 12th of Sagittarius.
I have Rahu/Khetu retrograde, 11/5 house. This is a topic you enjoy! Any plans for a video?
Good at least i knw retro is not bad...yes mercury makes me communicate easily...i hv it in libra...please send me yr email.i need u to che k moi chart
If I am coming I will let you know! :)
I have an aspect from rahu in Virgo to retrograde Mercury sitting in Capricorn along with sun, moon, Mars, and Uranus. My difficulty communicating is because of rahu.... 😭😭😭😭
Your Rahu period shall end. I think it shall end in this year. Then the Jupiter shall start. Did you check?
+Kketansa Art If I may ask, how do you know this?
+Andrea Orozco
I just got sudden intuition through your typed message and your profile face.
So, did you check?
+Kketansa Art not this uear, but the next. you were slightly off. lol
+Andrea Orozco
Yes. But awesome :)) .
You shall feel great then.
Feed ants, fish, birds, whenever you feel with sugar, bread, grains ets. Or especially on Saturday and Monday. The rahu lifting will be more benificial next year.
Thank you for this new knowledge! I have Mercury retrograde in conjunction with the Virgo sun in my 6th house. I also have Venus and Mars all in the same house. How does this affect me?
I am mercury retrograde in Taurus and I am good with both business and music
My mercury is retro in 2nd house.am libra
I have Mercury retrograde in my birth chart. Gemini rising, Libra sun and I also have mercury in Libra. my mind is incredibly active. Sometimes too active. I'm a total scatterbrain and I have a tough time organizing my life. I don't know if that's because I don't have any Earth signs except for the South Node in Taurus but it's intercepted. I also have a 6 th house interception. I am however always seeking information. if I'm interested in something I simulate the information very quickly and I never forget it. a lot of people seek me out to ask me questions about the things that I know. The thing is is my disorganization has become a problem in terms of getting a career started. I also have Jupiter retrograde in my birth chart and I don't really know anything about that yet. I have Jupiter in Aries.
I just checked my chart it looks like I have two aspects in Harmony and two aspects in disharmony.

Hi Lada,
I have mercury retrograde in my birth chart south Indian, in Sagittarius, along with south node. I have Jupiter R, in my ascendant Aries, according to some astrologers, I could not achieve my goals in my career due to this situation can you highlight. Thanks
hi, not at all-Retro jupiter is stronger than direct Jupiter, so is Retro Mercury...problems in career might be due to a planet in bad ladjitaadi avashta aspecting the career sector or running a difficult planet period.
Hi Lada, how can you help me with my career . I already used your website for the free chart. Please advise
Interesting, I've mercury retrograde at 29degrees in 10th House gemini, my sun sign
Lada, my 10th house lord, saturn sits in the 8th house scorpio with retrograge mercury and ketu. What career field do you suggest?

I have a Libra Mercury Rx in the 10th house. It literally Opposes Saturn, Squares Jupiter, Sextiles Mars, and Trines Neptune and Uranus. No wonder people stare at me funny when I attempt to communicate my thoughts to them.
LADA IS RETRO MERCURY IN 8TH HOUSE GIVES BAD EFFECT OR NOT..
PLEASE REPLY PLEASE. .
I read once a book on this aspect and the only thing i remember is that they are highly intelligent and intuitive so it is hard for them to communicate with the direct mercury people because the retrograde people are ahead or advanced.
Well, I have just a few aspects to mercury. They aren't good. I have mercury retro in aries in the third house. I have a hard time expressing myself. I get confused, reflect a lot, and I am shy. I feel defeated.
I have mer retro in cancer in 12th house and also conjucts Sun and Saturn. what does it mean.
wow that was no coincidence perhaps.... Though your sun isn't also In Aquarius is it?
Hi Lada, thank you for the video. May I also ask what if Rahu retrograde in birth chart? Thank you.
I struggle with school too ha ha! but for different reasons mainly laziness... and not really struggle just lazy .. so it isn't as good as it could be... I'm mercury in Aquarius retrograde with my Sun in Aquarius also and Mars retrograded in Leo
Same story
I have retrograde mercury in third house libra, but I feel like I over think and dabble into pessimism which results in laziness. could this be a result of sun, venus, and Jupiter conjunctions in the third house? The only other aspect is north node in tenth house Taurus.
hy lada, i have mercury just turned direct in aries 8th house. very slow moving only a few fractions of a degree a day in a boomerang yod quincunct uranus and ascendent and opp pluto. trine to moon, neptune, mars and saturn(g trine) i flow very easily in conversation but get very stuck in mental chatter and lots of procrastinating need to think everything through a million times. can get very stuck in my thinking. need to read a lot to get more ideas. anything that can help? btw ur lovely;-)
