Mercury Sextile Midheaven
You have a ready, workable link between your mind and your life direction. Mercury sextile your Midheaven offers recurring openings to bring your intellect and communication into your vocation, chances to use your ideas, writing, or voice in your public role when you reach for them. Unlike the trine's easy fit, this contact rewards initiative: the people who actively pursue work that engages their mind get the most from it. There is a versatile mental competence you can put to use. The lifelong opportunity is to keep stepping through the open doors, steadily building a public life that lets your thinking and your communication do real work in the world.
Lean in — Pursue work that actively engages your mind and voice.
Watch for — Wait for an intellectually engaging role to arrive on its own.
