What Mercury in Capricorn means for you
With Mercury in Capricorn, you think like a planner.
You consider consequences, organise information into steps and speak with quiet authority. You prefer facts and results to guesses. You rarely say anything you have not thought through.
You can seem serious or even pessimistic. But once people know you, they discover your very dry and funny humour. Your real strength is turning an unclear idea into a plan that works, with steps, responsible people and a budget.
Love
You show love through commitment and practical support, not poetry. People can rely on your promises, and you remember what you agreed to. You like partners who are clear and respectful. Saying a tender thing out loud, even awkwardly, means more to your partner than you may think. Try it before your anniversary.
Work & money
Management, finance, law, engineering, project planning and administration suit you. You think strategically and you deliver on time. You may be careful about new ideas until you see the numbers. Combine realism with curiosity, and your plans will be both solid and creative.
