Ulune

The Moon sextile Mercury: heart and head on speaking terms, a gift for the right word at the right moment that grows with practice.

60°☽☿
Moon and Mercury in sextile: 60° apart, give or take 6°.

Meaning

Two signs apart, feeling and thought sit in compatible elements and can lend each other a hand. The sextile wakes when it is used: a journal begun, a hard conversation opened gently.

How feelings meet thoughts: talking about emotions, memory, everyday communication, and whether head and heart speak the same language.

Head and heart communicate well in you. You can put feelings into words, listen with sensitivity and adapt what you say to the person in front of you. Writing, counselling or teaching children may suit you.

In practice

A sextile rewards initiative. The link is there, but it tends to stay dormant unless you use it — take the class, make the call, try the combination. People often discover their sextiles once they start acting on small openings.
