Hi all,
I posted this on the thread on Mercury in water but think I´d repost it here.

This is an informative article (transcripted lecture) by Jeff Green who is focusing on evolutionary astrology. This one is about two types of thinking (left and right brain, deductive, inductive, Mercury vs Jupiter).

I have Mercury in Pisces in 3rd house and this what Jeff Green says about it (and I find it very accurate):

What if you have Mercury in Pisces ? Let us put it in the third house, the natural Gemini house. If you have Mercury in its natural archetype, i.e., the third house which is linear, sequential, deductive thinking and yet the very essence of Pisces is the antithesis of this archetype, is there not a natural internal conflict within this person's mental process ? Is it not logically seen in this way ? Is not the Mercury in Pisces of itself going to naturally think in metaphorical terms or parables or analogy -- poetic ? Our fellow friend Jesus Of Nazareth had six planets in Pisces in the third house. How did we experience his communication? Still trying to figure it out, eh? Pisces !!!
...It is one of the very reasons that Christians have been confused - Pisces - ever since. It becomes the breeding ground of sectarian points of view. This is the problem with Mercury in Pisces, that the Mercury part of this individual can sense, perceive, much large wholes, much larger frames of reference than the Mercury function itself can logically order. As a result, it must speak in metaphor, parable, allusion; to allude to a something much larger, higher, and grander. This is of course problematic for many people who find themselves in modern societies. How many current modern societies in the West honor such an intellectual function ? What happens to such a person when they are exposed to public education in modern American, Canada, Europe, or European type societies? So typically this particular symbol learns - Mercury - to adopt - mutable archetype - the language systems of the culture that it is exposed to. Therein lies the origin of the conflict.
