MERCURY CONJUNCT SATURN

A conjunction or conjunct symbol is an aspect that emphasizes and brings together the energies of the planets involved. Conjunctions focus and intensify the energy much like a laser beam on an exact point in your chart. These planets have their own uniqueness and when tag-teamed their energy is intensified even more.

Mercury is the planet of the intellect, the reasoning mind and mental abilities, while Saturn rules stability and longevity (time). Saturn is disciplined, responsible and cautious. Saturn is the sign of the skeptic.

This is the placement of painstaking logic and skepticism. This can be more than enough skepticism, logic and rationality to drive others completely crazy. In fact, others might be saying, "Geez, can't you just expand your mind or be more open?" That question is more Mercury conjunct Jupiter, but this placement is Mercury conjunct Saturn. Jupiter expands, opens up and blows things out of proportion, while Saturn restricts, squeezes and limits. Being that this aspect is tighter and more restrictive, then it has more of a scientific mind, than a creative and expanded mind. Read more in my Astrology Aspects eBook - click the graphic below!
