Discussing the meaning of the planet Mercury in astrology, and explaining what it signifies in a birth chart, with astrologers Jo Gleason and Chris Brennan.

This is the third installment in our series where we do a deep dive into the significations of each of the planets and their meanings in astrology.

We anchored the discussion by reading through a series of excerpts about Mercury from different ancient and modern astrologers, including Vettius Valens, Abu Ma'shar, William Lilly, Reinhold Ebertin, Steven Forrest, and Richard Tarnas.

We then used these passages as jumping off points for an extended discussion about some of the deeper meanings of Mercury, and the role that it plays in chart interpretation, especially in combination with other planets.
