Light On Mercury

Mercury represents the qualities of intelligence, wit and humor. Called Budh, Mercury is the planet of communication, travel and weather. He is light, quick, fluid, curious, and connecting.

Class Recording

Mercury governs learning, study, information-gathering, communication, self-expression, speech, media, messages, and messaging, mediation, public relations, students, pupils, disciples, commercial endeavors, trade, business exchange. 

Mercury believes in logic, clear analysis and sharp reasoning. A well-placed Mercury will be seen in the charts of writers,  journalists, astrologers, mathematicians, engineers, researchers, dealers, brokers, business and media leaders.

Mercury gives the capacity to handle stress, and the clarity to make the right choices. In Yoga, Mercury gives the discernment so essential to transform and transcend.

Who is Mercury?

The Messenger In Orbit

A small planet, closest to the sun, Mercury travels with or near the Sun, so in a person’s chart Mercury is often in the sign of the Sun or flanking it. This can bring brilliance, or it can make Mercury combust, indicating “burnt out.”

Working With Mercury

Cultivate a relationship with Mercury with the mantra:
OM Bum Budhaya Namaha!

Mercury’s color is green, and his day is Wednesday.

The primary gem for Mercury is Emerald, to be worn on the riing or little finger of the right or left hand. Peridot, jade, green zircon or tournmaline can also be worn, best on a necklace.  

*Wearing gems should be avoided unless you are sure it is beneficial for you (requiring a Mercury, Venus or Saturn ruled Lagna, and Mercury must not be in, or rule, the 6th, 8th, 12th houses).

Herbs: Nervines like Brahmi, Gotu Kola, Bhringaraj, Passion flower, Skullcap, also Tulsi, Chamomile and Mint.
