Mercury in Gemini in the Twelfth House

La colocación de Mercurio in Gemini indicates you have a need for an active and stimulating mental environment and abundant opportunities to communicate. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Gemini are a result of the very active operation of those functions symbolized by Mercury. Mercury is well placed in Gemini, since Mercury rules Gemini.  Thus, those functions associated with Mercury have a particularly strong affinity for Gemini’s energy and the attunement of those functions to Gemini’s vibration strengthens and empowers them.

Géminis is the Mutable Air sign. Gemini’s changeable air is the perfect medium within which the Mercury-associated functions can work. The flexible, changing air element offers little resistance and its “wind” allows the mind to quickly move anywhere it likes. Thus, the functions associated with Mercury are “all over the place.” If there is a drawback to the Gemini placement of Mercury it is the potential for too much mental energy operating too freely and without enough grounding.

Inseguridades

As an individual with Mercurio en Géminis, if you are insecure, you are never really certain of the knowledge you have acquired. You do not rest long enough to acquire a thorough knowledge of a thing.  Partly this is because your ego subconsciously knows that keeping the mind perpetually moving from one thing to another and never letting it rest is one of the best ways to guarantee that the illusion of ego will be maintained. You, therefore, often try to dazzle others with volume and speed in your attempt to hide the superficiality of your knowledge and understanding.

Mercury in the 12th House:

Mercury in the 12th Casa is a difficult placement for Mercury, given Mercury’s association with mental forms that are specific, concrete in nature and able to be categorized and known. The 12th House symbolizes those things that are hidden, that are ambiguous, universal and transcendent and for your mind to be focused on this level of existence may be difficult. With Mercury in the 12th House, you may find it difficult to find anything that you can mentally latch on to. You may become confused about what it is you are supposed to learn or know and may question whether there is anything that can be definitely known. This confusion and frustration may cause you to devalue your mental capabilities or to want to avoid mental activity.

Having Mercury in the 12th House, your mental and communicating faculties may appear weak or you may be unaware of the mental side of your personality and psyche. It may seem as if your mental capabilities evaporate or disintegrate. It is only when you consciously face the ambiguities and unknowns of life that you are likely to find your mental strength and be able to develop your mental faculties.

As an individual with Mercury in the 12th House, you may employ your mental and communicative energy to help others once you face the existence of pain and suffering in the world. Grasping the intuitive component of the mind, you may tackle difficult and subtle mental problems once you accept that there are no clear-cut and simple answers. Realizing that there is much in life that is unknown, with Mercury in the 12th House, you may turn your mental energy to uncovering what lies hidden and bringing the undiscovered to the light of knowledge. Coming to grips with the confusion and disorganization that besets you, you may use your mental faculties to gain more organization in your life.

Inseguridades

Having Mercury in the 12th House, faced with confusion and doubt and an inability to mentally form a stable world in which your ego can safely reign, if you are inwardly insecure, you will adopt a subconscious defense mechanism to preserve your ego-consciousness from disintegration and collapse. This generally involves the creation of a fantasy world, a mental construct in which your ego can safely operate and within which it is king or queen. With Mercury in the 12th House, you may engage in various subterfuges, directed both at yourself or others, in order to preserve this fantasy. You become an expert at hiding facts and realities. Although your mental world may appear to be falling apart to others, from your own point of view it is something you can grasp onto. One danger with Mercury in the 12th House is that you may grasp onto a fantasy that involves masochism, substance abuse or self-dissipation.

Enfoque del intelecto

With Mercury in the 12th House, you are likely to be intellectually interested in exploring the unknown and the mysterious. This may include the mysteries of life and death, the subconscious, the self, religion and mysticism, the problem of good and evil and the reality of phenomena. You may be particularly comfortable, mentally, with problems that are ambiguous and with solutions that are unclear. You may not be willing to be specific and absolute in your ideas and intellectual beliefs and you are more likely to be inclined toward a relativist intellectual perspective. You are less likely to commit to the idea that something is “this way” and more likely to state “these are the possibilities.”
