Diphda
Mercury Conjunct Diphda
With your natal Mercury conjunct the fixed star Diphda, the star's nature marks your mind and communication: the Whale's tail, forced change and the discipline of compulsion. The Mercury magnifies and makes central whatever a star signifies, so this is a real mark on this part of you. Read it together with Diphda's full nature and the rest of the chart; a single star colors but does not dictate.
