Summary of "Mercury in your Birth Chart | All About Mercury | Mercury Remedies & Significations | #Astrology"
Main ideas & concepts about Mercury in astrology (what it signifies)
Core significations
-
Speech
- Mercury signifies speech.
- Weak/Afflicted Mercury → speech defects can occur, especially when speech indicators are also activated (notably the 2nd house).
- Otherwise → speech may be less convincing, or the person struggles to express what they want.
- Effective speech is strongly linked to Mercury’s condition.
-
Knowledge / education / mental interests
- Mercury links to knowledge.
- Its strength/weakness indicates:
- What education one is drawn to
- What one likes to read
- General mental interests
-
“Prince” / inheritance themes
- Mercury is described as the “prince” (like inheritance flow from king to prince).
- Powerful Mercury → family matters are “left/inherited,” making benefits easier to access.
- The speaker argues inheritance is not only the 8th house:
- They claim inheritance is primarily from the 10th house,
- but Mercury still matters for the quality and usability of inheritance.
- Afflicted Mercury → inheritance may be mismanaged or lost due to ignorance.
-
Opportunities & professional success
- Powerful Mercury → more opportunities; less need to start “from scratch.”
- The speaker states Mercury is the primary significator of the 10th house (even if some classics use Jupiter/Sun/Saturn too).
- Weak/Afflicted Mercury → hopelessness, lost time, missed opportunities.
- Mercury is linked to intelligence, and intelligence is said to correlate with professional success.
Other roles
-
Astrology
- Mercury is presented as a key indicator for being an astrologer—telling people things that help them change their lives.
-
Spirituality / self-realization
- Success in spirituality and self-realization depends on Mercury being strong.
-
“Bodan” / piercing
- Mercury gives a tendency to “pierce” through with speech.
- Others may tell you what to improve, sometimes humiliating you if Mercury is weak.
- If Mercury is strong, you can uplift others through guidance.
-
“Buddh” / intelligent person
- Mercury reflects an intelligent nature and the ability to help others recognize mistakes.
Duality / multiplicity
- Mercury is described as producing twice the effect:
- Benefic Mercury → double benefits
- Afflicted/Malefic Mercury → double problems
- Mercury is portrayed as a planet of plurality/multiplicity, including:
- Multiple marriages (when connected to the 7th)
- Multiple properties/vehicles (when connected to the 4th)
- Multiple children/siblings depending on placement
- Special note (as claimed by the speaker):
- Even if 4th-house Mercury gives property, such natives may not live in their own home (renting despite property).
Gender / “un-planet” (neutrality)
- Mercury is said to be neutral, not specifically male or female.
- It “behaves” based on the planets/rashis it connects with:
- With a male planet → tends toward male traits
- With a female planet → tends toward female traits
- Life-partner tendencies
- Mercury is said to indicate a partner with a mix/balance of traits (including singing/voice + responsibility + sexual satisfaction as described by the speaker).
- If Mercury is with Saturn (also described as neutral) in a particular way, the speaker warns of sexual dissatisfaction and relational imbalance.
Earth element / stability
- Mercury is linked to the Earth element, giving resourcefulness and stability when strong.
- The speaker claims strong Mercury helps prevent major unexpected negative events (disease/death/cheating) and supports stable financial/professional status.
Remedies & practical instructions given
A) Color-based remedy (especially green)
- Mercury is associated with green color.
- To activate/remedy Mercury:
- Donate green-colored items for Mercury.
- Paint rooms green or use green shades (curtains, bedding, etc.), especially if Mercury positively influences the 4th house or the 4th lord.
- If Mercury is beneficial in the horoscope and in a Kendra, wearing/using more green is advised.
- Avoidance rule
- If Mercury is causing problems (e.g., in “bad houses” or harmful combinations), avoid excessive green, as it may activate Mercury and worsen life.
- Safe alternative
- The speaker discourages “negative remedies” and suggests color avoidance to prevent activating a harmful Mercury.
B) Worship remedy (Lord Vishnu)

- Pray to Vishnu to control Mercury’s effects
- The speaker frames planets like powerful beings that respond to prayers and karma.
C) Directional remedy: North
- Keep the north side of the home clean, with less weight and more open space.
- Use north strategically:
- If certain connections are present (e.g., 7th lord in Mercury-rashi, or Mercury connected to 10th/wealth houses), north-facing workplace/home-gate associations are said to help.
- Sleep instruction

D) Food / taste remedy
