Mercury in Libra Personality Traits
When Mercury is in Libra, you are incredibly empathetic and good at understanding people, which makes you a great diplomat. While you are probably naturally creative, you also tend to avoid tough decisions.
Empathetic
When you are a Mercury in Libra, you are very good at seeing things from other people’s perspectives. You don’t always insist that your opinion is the right one. Rather, you understand better than most that things appear very differently depending on where you are standing.
This flexibility in your thinking means that it is easy for you to get on with pretty much anyone, because you can effortlessly fall in with their way of thinking.
Avoidant
But your ability to see lots of different options and truths can cripple your ability to make decisions, even small ones. You can see both the benefits and the challenges of every option, which can often make deciding impossible for you.
As Mercury in Libra, you may have a tendency to “hitch your wagon” to someone else and rely on them to make the tough decisions that you can’t face. You know what a great responsibility that is, so you never complain in hindsight. If only we all had 20-20 vision before the fact.
Diplomatic
The way that you speak has a naturally empathetic, open, and genuine tone, which makes people want to trust you. You are also very good at speaking about things in terms that the individual in front of you understands, and at focusing on the things that matter to them. So, people always listen to you.
You excel in roles where conflict resolution is important, whether that be diplomacy or marriage counselling. That said, you feel very uncomfortable if someone else actively attacks you personally.
Creative
People with their Mercury in Libra are naturally creative, which is a natural extension of their ability to see multiple possibilities and more than is obviously there.
You feel your best when you have a creative outlet, whether that be art, music, dance, or anything else. When you don’t have time for these things, you will often feel like your energy is drained.
