The personal planet of mind and communication, in tradition.
In astrology Mercury is one of the personal planets and is traditionally associated with the mind — how a person thinks, speaks, learns, and exchanges information. Astrologers often cast it as the messenger of the chart. These are symbolic associations, not scientific findings.
Astrologers traditionally read Mercury's placement as describing a person's communication style, reasoning, and curiosity. It is frequently mentioned in popular astrology in connection with phases described as 'Mercury retrograde'.
In chart interpretation Mercury's sign and house are read together with the other placements to characterize the intellect. Its traditional rulerships are the signs Gemini and Virgo.
