What Mercury in Aquarius means for you
With Mercury in Aquarius, you think differently from most people, and you enjoy it.
You notice patterns, question assumptions and like unusual ideas just because they are unusual. Your mind works best when it is free to explore.
You are objective and fair. Sometimes you sound distant when someone only wanted sympathy. Once you have thought something through, you can hold an unusual opinion with surprising stubbornness.
Love
You show love through shared ideas and friendship. You send articles, discuss ideas and make plans to improve the world. You need a partner who enjoys your mind and respects your independence. Emotional conversations may be easier for you in writing, or after some time to think. Tell your partner that needing space does not mean you are distant. It is how you think.
Work & money
Technology, science, innovation, social causes and research suit you. You do very well in cooperative, forward-looking teams. Strict hierarchies frustrate you quickly. Your ideas may come before people are ready for them. Explain them in the terms used by the people who must approve them, and your ideas will go much further.
