About Mercury

Mercury is the planet of intellect, speech, trade, writing, calculation and learning. It is youthful, curious and adaptable, and it takes on the nature of the planets around it. A strong Mercury gives quick thinking and good business sense; a stressed Mercury can scatter attention. Its house shows where you think and communicate most.

About the 1st house

The first house (lagna) is the self: body, personality, appearance, health habits and the way you begin things. It is the lens through which the whole chart is read. It is read for overall vitality, confidence, reputation and the direction life takes. Planets here are strongly felt in your personality and appearance, and the lord of the first house shows where your attention naturally goes.
