Mercury Moon to Mercury Saturn: When Life Forces You to Grow Up Fast

The Mercury Moon sub period was supposed to be about nurturing and emotion. Instead it opened with a knock at the door at 7am from the FBI. In this episode Paul Heath of I Am Astrology Readings continues the real life Mercury Firdaria case study as co-host Walter walks through one of the most defining chapters of her Mercury period. Her mother gets indicted for a white collar crime and spends the majority of the Mercury Moon sub period in federal prison. Walter has to drop out of college, leave her cushy only child life behind, and step into full adult responsibility overnight. Mercury in fall in the 12th — the house of prisons, solitude, and self undoing. Her Moon is in the 9th — the house of legal matters, higher learning, and religion. The chart told the story before it happened. Then the Mercury Saturn period hits at age 21. Saturn is the authority figure, the father, the one who says no. Her Venus is sandwiched between Saturn and Mars — the two malefics — and the relationship she has been holding onto since 18 starts cracking under the weight. What follows is messy, human, and completely written in the chart. And that is just the beginning of exploring the boundaries of a very questionable sexuality.Topics covered: Mercury Moon sub period real life expression, FBI investigation, mother in federal prison, 12th house as the house of prisons, 9th house and legal matters, dropping out of college as Mercury in fall, marijuana addiction as Pisces escapism, Mercury Saturn sub period begins at 21, Saturn as the authority figure and father, Venus between two malefics, relationship breakdown, sect and malefics working against the chart.TakeawaysThe Moon sub period activates themes of the mother and nurturing — Walter's Mercury Moon period expressed through her mother's imprisonmentMercury in the 12th house — the house of prisons, solitude, and self undoing — showed up literally in this periodThe 9th house rules legal matters and higher learning — Walter's Moon in the 9th connected both themes at onceHer mother talked too much to the FBI — a Sagittarius Moon that loves to talk, self undoing in real timeDropping out of college during a Mercury in fall period is the planet expressing its fallen nature — falling out of the 9th house of higher learningMarijuana addiction begins as the only way to cope — Mercury in Pisces, escapism is the default survival mechanismThe Mercury Saturn sub period opens at 21 — Saturn says no, draws boundaries, and forces confrontation with realityVenus sandwiched between Saturn and Mars in the chart means relationship energy is constantly blocked and pressured by both maleficsThe malefic out of sect hits harder — knowing which malefic is working against your chart changes how you read every hard periodAnd this is just the beginning of exploring the boundaries of a very questionable sexualityFirdaria Explained: The Hellenistic Timing Technique That Maps the Chapters of Your LifeLinks referenced in this episode:iamastrologyreadings.comCompanies mentioned in this episode:IamastrologyreadingsPayPalVenmoCash AppSupport the mythic classroom: https://i-am-astrology-readings.captivate.fm/supportBook a Reading: https://i-am-astrology-readings.captivate.fm/book-reading#astrologyrideoftheday
