MERCURY RAHU CONJUNCTION

 

In Vedic astrology, Mercury is associated with communication, intelligence, reasoning, and mental dexterity. It rules over things related to the mind, including learning, teaching, writing, speaking, and all forms of communication. Mercury also governs technology, commerce, trade, and travel. The position of Mercury in your Kundli would influence your communication style, thinking patterns, decision-making abilities, and how you express yourself verbally and in writing. It can also indicate how one learns, processes information, and interacts with their immediate environment.

Rahu represents all forms of desires and cravings, anything that is ultra materialistic or worldly in nature. It can indicate areas where you may feel driven or obsessed. Rahu is linked to ambition, striving for success, and achieving recognition in the world. It can indicate a strong desire for power, fame, or social status. It is also associated with illusion, deception, and confusion. It can indicate situations where things may not be as they appear or where individuals may be left confused and in a state of delirium. It is often associated with unconventional things and with foreign countries. It can indicate a tendency to break societal norms or pursue unconventional paths in life. Sudden events and unpredictability: Rahu's influence can bring sudden and unexpected events into one's life. It can create a sense of unpredictability and instability, leading to rapid changes in one's life.

When Rahu is connected with Mercury in your Kundli, it can firstly show that the person will be extremely cunning and clever. The individual would be street smart and would have an extra edge over others due to his spoken communication or their intellect. They would be able to sell things easily and would also have a mastery in multiple languages. They can also obtain multiple degrees if other planets are also supporting this conjunction. They can be excellent at coding/hacking and would also operate quite secretly. They would not reveal a lot of things related to their job etc. They may have strained or sour relations with their maternal uncle or he might be connected with foreign lands in some way. It would be beneficial if they choose their education stream in the domain of Rahu like aeronautical engineering, computer science, aviation, photography etc. They can also make really good writers and can type very fast. 

Rahu's influence can make the thought processes of Mercury unconventional and outside the norm. This can lead to innovative ideas, unique perspectives, and a willingness to explore unorthodox concepts. These individuals may excel in fields that require originality and creative thinking. They can also be brilliant at advertising/marketing a product. They should ideally use technology in their profession in a core way in order for them to excel rapidly. They should also be careful of their friend circle and cousins/relatives as there would be a tendency to find Rahu kind of people in their vicinity. They could also be cheated by their friends/relatives/neighbors.

Depending on the sign in which this conjunction is happening, things would differ a bit. If Mercury and Rahu are conjunct in the sign of Aries/Leo/Sagittarius (Fire Signs), then it shows that such individuals would be extremely ambitious and dynamic. They would be active and would hustle their way to get that promotion or job. If it happens in Air signs like Gemini/Libra/Aquarius, then it shows that this conjunction would be considered very strong as both Rahu and Mercury would act very strongly in these signs. In the sign of Gemini, such individuals would be extremely talkative and would always find a shortcut to do things in life. They would rely a lot on their friends and close ones for help and would always be hyperactive. In Libra, this conjunction can make the person interested in venus related things like art, drama, fashion, photography and anything that is creative. In Aquarius, Rahu would be more powerful so they should definitely do something related with technology and places where they can network with a large audience. 

In Water signs like Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces, this conjunction would operate in a relaxed manner and the fuel needed to get that motivation and drive would be lacking. In the sign of Cancer, if it is happening in the Ashlesha nakshatra, then they would be extremely clever and shrewd, they can be really smart at cracking business deals and also in duping people. In Scorpio, they would operate very silently and would speak less. They can be brilliant at research and studying about occult sciences. In Pisces, as Mercury would be debilitated, this conjunction would not give its best results but they can move to a foreign land for better results. In Earth signs like Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn, this conjunction would give beautiful results and would make the person wealthy. In taurus, both Mercury and Rahu would give good results and they can make this conjunction stronger by opting for Venus related professions. In Virgo, they can do well as a Data Analyst or someone who is a very smart coder. In Capricorn, they can do well in professions related to administration.
