Aspects
Mercury Quintile Uranus
The quintile, prized by Kepler, is a subtle aspect of talent. Between your mind and your individuality it gives a creative gift for invention: a knack for the original idea, the unexpected connection, the genuinely new solution. It is quiet and rewards development. The growth is using it. At your best you make inventive thinking itself look like genius.
Lean in — Develop the gift for the inventive idea and original solution.
Watch for — Leave the spark of genius unused because it came easy.
