how you speak according to your mercury sign. according to me.

aries mercuries dont even have loud voices they just have a talent for talking as soon as the room is quiet, aries mercs can also be pretty monotone their faces are just super expressive so it feels more like they’re just being honest rather than bored. also super animated and use their hands in speech a lot.

taurus mercuries have voices made for audiobooks. velvety and often have great singing voices. they talk slowly and enunciate well. they feel like they think about what they say even if they dont.

gemini mercuries either feel like mad scientists or like you’ve known them for 15 years even if they’re a stranger. they have a relaxed tone but are so expressive that it feels playful, they dont take breaks in what they say and flow in conversation. ive noticed they also widen their eyes a lot when they speak

cancer mercuries have quieter voices and pronounce every letter, they have some vocal fry when they speak and use filler words a lot so can come across as a little valley girly. they also tend to draw out their sentences like taurus mercs.

i dont know how to explain it but leo mercuries space their words weird like news reporters do (?). they’re dramatic and do a lot of different things with their voices in conversation, if they’re telling you a story they’ll do a different voice for every person they’re talking about.

virgo mercuries just kind of always sound smart and like they know what they’re talking about. kind of people that would drop something like ‘furthermore’ into a conversation and it just sounds normal. virgo mercuries have pretty monotone voices too and it does feel like they’re bored. they probably are.

libra mercuries move their faces a lot when they speak especially their eyebrows. they’ll look around the room when they explain something and nod along to themselves while they speak. i think libra mercuries can have pretty deep voices too actually.

scorpio mercuries also move their faces a lot when they speak and draw their words out, but unlike cancer or taurus mercs this can come across as them being intense or brooding when really they’re just thinking about what they want to say next. more charismatic than people give them credit for. i also have a theory that scorpio placements have nasally voices so i’d say that applies here.

sagittarius mercuries are singsongy in how they speak and will often cut themselves off or repeat themselves in sentences. they speak with their whole bodies and especially move their necks a lot while speaking.

capricorn mercuries have harsher voices so they kind of always sound like they’re saying something bluntly. they talk with their hands a lot but it feels like they do that because they think they need to rather than it being natural since they dont tend to have expressive faces or voices.

aquarius mercuries are usually chill and kind of feel like they’re not fully invested in whatever’s coming out of their mouth, they’ll tell you the craziest story like it was just an average tuesday. they can be very blunt and stiff in their movements but they speak like they’re stoned or like they just woke up from a nap lmfao

pisces mercuries are usually softspoken and come across as very friendly in conversation. they tell things chronologically and don’t cut themselves off or repeat themselves much. they don’t move their hands much when they talk, they feel a little like they’ve had a long day and are ready to sleep.

placements that i think are the funniest

aries mercuries are quick to speak and sometimes do so without thinking, but this can make for someone quick-witted and funny. so animated when they speak & they’re hotheads so its funny to annoy them

a gemini moon can make someone funny in the way of knowing what other people laugh at. a gemini moon can change their sense of humour depending on who they’re talking to. these people are usually naturally playful and dont take themselves too seriously so they’ll always commit to the bit.

capricorn mercuries are hit or miss here but i personally think that the dry straightforwardness of a capricorn merc can be super funny and can be the kind of person you didn’t expect to make you laugh so much. especially paired with some fire energy in their chart.

every sag rising i know is the kind of friend that’s funny without knowing they are. you call their name and they just turn their head in a way that makes u chuckle. sag risings definitely try their hardest to make you laugh but they end up being the funniest when they don’t even try.

moon in aspect to mercury. dont underestimate how emotional intelligence can make someone funnier. speaking from the heart and with an intuitive mind can make for the funniest people.

aquarius mercury just say weird shit and they say it dead seriously. kinda the same vibe as a capricorn mercury. i think aquarius moon applies here too, they just say what’s on their mind and it can make any situation funnier. or worse. if you’re boring.

uranus in aspect to the moon. these people are interesting to listen to and they often have weird ideas, they’re funny in the way of being a little kooky. they’ll be so serious about something so unserious, or they’ll say something you would have never expected to come out of their mouth. this energy gives me gareth from the office (UK), but a little more friendly..

virgo mercuries are intelligent and quick-witted. i think they can have a nerdy charm and they often say what they think. a virgo mercury can read someone to filth but it’s all in good fun. aries merc + virgo merc is an underrated duo

giving a genre of music to each sign

aries - pop punk. its fast and loud but a less serious about it than other branches of punk music. it might break something and shout a little, but nobody’s that mad about it. its here for a good time.

taurus - neo soul. easy listening but still beautiful, you can put neo soul music on at any time and it’ll fit right. stunning vocals u just have to close your eyes to fully appreciate.

gemini - hyperpop. its fun and a little bit crazy, unpredictable and not for everybody, but those that like it love it and understand it. it doesnt take itself too seriously, but it doesnt take u seriously for listening either so

cancer - bossa nova. its relaxed and flows nicely. melodic and sweet but still groovy and fun. cancer is a luminary after all, people forget it likes the spotlight sometimes too.

leo - disco of course. drama, synths, sparkles, performance. you cant help but dance, even if you dont like it you’re still gonna tap your feet

virgo - bedroom pop. easy listening yet precise and doesnt need to do too much to pull off what its trying to do perfectly. a DIY feel that is often present, a lot of effort goes into it and it pays off.

libra - contemporary r&b. most people love it, it’s catchy and stays in your head all day. has a balance of beautiful harmonies and fun instrumental. and a great balance of both songs that put you in a great mood, and songs that have you crying

scorpio - new wave. a little brooding, but branched off from the louder, more straightforward genres. melodic, introspective and personal while also feeling veiled and hidden. but theres also a good amount of fun, sparkly new wave songs.

sagittarius - ska. fast paced, fun and lively. has something important to say but just wants to dance about it. mixes genres from all over the world. its dancey and in your face but knows when to tone it down. sometimes.

capricorn - classic rock. wide array of styles under this one genre, some is melodic and precise some is heavy and dark. but all of it contains a lot of incredible talent and dedication, live instruments and powerful vocals. it paved its own way into being an iconic genre. and dads love it.

aquarius - acid jazz. a little avant-garde and doesnt need to follow a traditional musical structure to work. even tho it literally marches to the beat of its own drum, its still groovy and a little more mainstream than it would want to admit.

pisces - shoegaze. dreamy and atmospheric. introspective lyrics and fuzzy intstrumentals. can be distorted and moody while also remaining peaceful and glittery.

my unpopular astro takes

virgo energy can be more straightforward than aries energy. sometimes without realising it

some of the most laid back people i’ve met have been capricorn suns. surprisingly.

scorpio placements can be bigger attention seekers than leo placements and are more dramatic too

gemini/3rd house energy is actually very intuitive & spiritual but is often overlooked in that regard

honestly leo risings are the biggest stoners. is it the pisces ruled 8th house? maybe

libra moons can have bigger mood swings than any other moon sign

a 10th house mercury can be misunderstood in conversation as way harsher than they meant to be

aquarius risings are wayyyy more high maintenance than they want to admit

a lot of sagittarius energy makes someone more ‘i liked it before it was cool’ than aquarius energy does

obviously these are general

random astrology observations (my own opinions)

6th house mercury people are some of the most talkative, even in a sign like scorpio. they can talk for hours about a topic they’re interested in and they know everything about it.

aries venus have a rep for getting bored quickly, but i think this placement makes for someone who has a lot of different interests and hobbies rather than someone who cant commit to one thing.

fire risings tend to have long legs, even if they’re short.

air moons are great at understanding how and why they feel a certain emotion and where it comes from, but they arent as great at confronting or working through their emotions.

i think air risings are more likely to have birthmarks/moles/freckles than other rising signs

i have a theory that prominent scorpio placements/scorpio stelliums have nasally voices. whether its talking or singing voice… i cant prove it but its true.

gemini mercury’s are actually the loudest merc sign. yes even louder than fire mercurys.

people with aries ruling over their 10th house often have problems with authority figures and dont usually get along with their bosses/ people in charge throughout their life.

3rd house stelliums are more intuitive and spiritual than people give them credit for.

[twelfthousemoon]

astrology placements i think can be very psychic/witchy

water moons in general. very in tune with the natural cycles of life, deeply intuitive and emotionally attuned. if you’re a water moon, listen to your intuition, its definitely right.

8th house/12th house moons. in tune with their subconscious mind and things that are hidden beneath the surface. often find an interest in the occult/mystical things so it comes naturally.

pluto as chart ruler/aspecting inner planets. this gives someone a witchy vibe and an intrigue for the esoteric. in tune with energy and drawn to spiritual work.

12th/8th/9th house stellium. these people have a natural interest in spiritual things, expressed in different ways depending on which house is the focus. but generally these are introspective intuitive people that can tap into their spiritual nature easily.

pisces risings/ stellium. again with the natural deep intuition and a natural wisdom on spirituality. i’m never surprised when someone with a pisces rising/stellium is either a witch or just super psychic.

neptune aspecting the moon. these people see what others dont, and can feel what others might not feel. the veil between natural and supernatural is thinner.

what the rising signs physically look like (in my opinion)

aries risings tend to look fierce, with prominent eyebrows/brow bone and a larger forehead. upturned chin and wide nose, full lips. even if they’re short, they usually have long legs.

taurus risings tend to look softer generally. soft, full lips and usually a full figure. wavy hair. their nose is slightly triangular and they have a square jawline.

gemini risings typically look younger than their age, great hair and a wide smile. sharper bone structure and long arms. their nose is rounded. there is a theatrical energy to them.

cancer risings have large eyes and a round face, noticeable cheekbones. thicker eyebrows. kind of look like a blythe doll. tend to have shorter legs.

leo risings have noticeable hair and a face like an actual lion/cat. eyes that turn noticeably up or down, tend to have squarer foreheads or hairlines. a wide smile that takes up a lot of the face. broad shoulders.

virgo risings look put together, round eyes and paler skin. if dark skinned, it tends to be cool undertones. complexion is usually clear. narrower nose and heart shaped lips. lowkey have a serious case of RBF.

libra risings have symmetrical features, small noses and a diamond head shape. usually rounder/almond eyes. friendly, approachable features. libra risings are the person smiling at everyone they walk past.

scorpio risings tend to have sharp features. noticeable eyes, a nose that is stronger from the side than the front, and usually plump lips. misunderstood as cold or rude.

sagittarius risings have a prominent nose/high nose bridge and a long face. eyes are typically narrower and sometimes hooded. usually darker features and feel lanky even if short. they have a jolly kind of presence to them.

capricorn risings have small features and a small head shape, often an upturned nose and a sharp jawline. narrow stoic eyes. they always feel like they’re going somewhere important.

aquarius risings usually have a long face and long limbs even if they’re short, striking features and round eyes. aquarius risings are the most likely to have freckles/moles/birthmarks on their face in my opinion.

pisces risings have watery, dreamy eyes. heart shaped face, a wide mouth and a small nose. thinner eyebrows. they have a detached energy to them, like they’re in their own world.

placements that make for an interesting/eccentric personality:

aquarius venus - often ahed of their time, expressive and creative. an eye for things that seem odd to others. unique in every sense.

moon in the 8th house - an interest in the taboo, love for spooky things. deep and introspective, 8th house moons are in the dream blunt rotation.

9th house mercury - can turn any conversation into a philosophical discussion. larger than life when talking and great storytellers. wide array of interests, has tried every hobby (or at least thought about it)

gemini rising - witty and intelligent, youthful energy and has an anecdote for any conversation. the kind of friend who is always on the move, doing something new.

uranus aspecting the moon/ascendant - especially conjunct/sextile/trine. interested in ‘weird’ things, experimental, unpredictable and doesn’t like to be put in a box. kind of person who changes their style every five minutes.

aquarius ruling over the 5th house - their creative expression is innovative and exciting, artistic visionaries with something new to bring. these people hate the mundane.

moon sextile/trine venus - in tune with their emotions and creativity. oftentimes an interesting sense of style if not a thought provoking person to chat with.

scorpio rising - especially with prominent virgo placements. these people don’t mind pushing boundaries and making people uncomfortable. they dont need to be understood. they thrive when they give themselves creative freedom.

pisces moon - spiritual and emotional. these people look at life through a lens of introspection. a strong intuition and a love for all things mystical. often come across as witchy. very interesting to talk to, you can get lost in conversation with them.
