MERCURY SQUARE SATURN
This aspect is a seat of inner tensions. The tension of the square gives us motivation. Squares are dynamic aspects that give us the drive to succeed. What begins as an inner problem is overcome or accepted, and then becomes a door to understanding.
It is important to understand that Mercury rules the reasoning and conscious mind that forms conclusions. Mercury is intellectual, enjoys learning, teaches and is communicative. Saturn rules stability and responsibility. It is also disciplined and cautious. Saturn rules the father, limitations and authority figures.
This is the classic placement for the narrow-minded individual. Think about the word 'narrow-minded' because the individual affected by this aspect will have extremely limited views. Once you understand this about that individual, then you will understand that their field of thought can only stretch so far.

Their self-discipline is very strict, which they will also hold others to the same level of strictness and discipline. Read more in my Astrology Aspects eBook - click the graphic below!
