a while ago someone posted about the vibration of how we communicate those who excel in merc in pisces dont get heard cos the frequency gets lost in a world where those who are just working on the base level. (like having planets in 12th house and not appreciating their value)
I will post a link that I saw the other day about where mercury comes in your chart. it was quite interesting.
here you go - you may have already seen it -

Well ain't that somethin..very interesting indeed!
"If your Mercury type is Promethean-Retrograde, you possess a mind seeking
independence from biological limitations and the dictates of
social convention. It does so because it is driven by
an intuitive impulse to realize a new quality of being, the full nature of which you may not as yet clearly or fully understand.
But independence from natural compulsions and social convention
often leads to a more or less violent rebellion against the past and its traditions, or from anything which holds back your mental eagerness.
Eventually, the Promethean-Retrograde type generally tires of resisting whatever she feels hinders her freedom.
{Umm..like my LIFE?}
Then mental combativeness
{3rd house Aquarius Moon opposite Leo Mars} gives ways to a powerful intuitive identification with, and a creative contribution to, something greater than the person
{3rd house Mercury in Pisces}."
{Michael Whelon - The Fourth Crusade}
Do you notice the burning city in the background..? While the cloaked woman is sitting on the shore of time..reflecting,
understanding, resigned to her fate..leaving the more chaotic past behind..that's how I see this.
"Because the Promethean-Retrograde phase lasts from ten to fifteen days, it is seen in only about one out of ten birth charts.
Great minds and influential thinkers are found among Promethean-Retrograde types, including
Aldous Huxley.
A member of England’s most prominent scientific family, Huxley migrated to America, where he became a famous novelist and social critic. Always a futuristic thinker, Huxley’s Promethean-Retrograde Mercury is clearly shown in his best-known novel,
Brave New World."
{Aquarius much?}
"Mercury’s character is traditionally said to be asexual, and its significance in a natal chart doesn’t vary much between men and women. Women born during Mercury’s Promethean-Retrograde phase, however, often find themselves engaged in challenging traditional roles and in defining a new image of woman."
"Some of the most outstanding icons of new womanhood are Promethean-Rx types.
Victoria Woodhull, an early feminist of the nineteenth century and one of the most Promethean women of the modern era, is exemplary of the type.
Chrissie Hynde - who opened the way for women to work as creative and musical principals in the world of rock music -
is a contemporary icon whose legacy has a tremendous impact on creative young women.
The editor of
Cosmopolitan and author of
Sex and the Single Girl,
Helen Gurley Brown, is another Promethean-Rx woman."

I interpret this as..while you may look the part and/or feel/relate to a more 'traditional' interpretation of standard/classic femininity,
you may not necessarily think or communicate in ways that were particularly encouraged for a woman once upon a time, though not really so long ago in actuality. Women's suffrage anyone? Among other things.
