Ulune

Mercury in Aries: a fast, direct mind that learns by doing and speaks before others dare.

♈♉♊♋♌♍♎♏♐♑♒♓☿
Mercury in Aries: the planet’s glyph in the thirty degrees of Aries.

Meaning

The messenger meets Mars’s fire, and thought becomes an act of will. Reasoning here is quick and decisive, more at ease with a first impulse than with long deliberation.

Mercury in Aries thinks fast and speaks directly. You tend to reach a conclusion before others have finished asking the question, and you learn best by trying rather than by reading instructions. In meetings you may be the one who says what everyone was avoiding. That speed is useful in emergencies and debates, but it can make you interrupt or send replies you regret. Rereading important messages once before sending costs little and helps a lot.
