This naturally allows your mental and communicative faculties to more easily contribute to your success and, thus, enhances your self-esteem. You may also value success associated with mental achievement more highly than other forms of success. You may be seen as a strong communicator or someone who has a sharp intellect. The harmonious state of your mind may also serve to shield you from threats to your self-esteem by screening out those thoughts, impressions and communications that could prove destructive.

Mercury trine Midheaven are curious individuals

Mercury trine Midheaven makes you intelligent, free-thinking and curious. Your parents, or more likely one parent, in particular, recognized your potential very early. Whether it was your prodigious mental, musical, or sporting ability, they would have tried to teach or find the best trainers for you. Open communication channels between you and your parents and teachers helped you learn all you could from them. And just as those above you heavily influenced your ideas and opinions, later you will go on to mentor and influence others. You likely did very well at school and have always been keen to progress beyond what you were taught. Once you learned all you could from your parents and your schooling, you grew restless for more information and skills, possibly travelling to meet teachers and be influenced by them. Important and influential people may assist you in finding the career best suited to your skills. You may travel for employment, and once in a career, travel again in search of a better position. You are thoughtful and an experimental thinker, with excellent communication and improvisational skills. Mercury trine Midheaven gives good coordination and dexterity, with your mind and hands. It can also give a talent for languages, negotiation, writing, journalism, drawing, comedy, teaching or politics. You present well in public and should enjoy the respect of your peers and a good reputation. Looking good is important to you, and you may love elegant clothing and accessories. Hobbies are also important to keep your mind stimulated, and you may enjoy reading, puzzles, keeping pets, travelling, and playing practical jokes. You can absorb and adapt the best from elsewhere but will develop your unique style and leave a positive impression on many people. Whether a courier or a president, you have a message to share whatever your career.

This combination brings easy acceptance into the public or professional spheres. You have a natural self-assurance combined with either some seriousness or popularity which encourages others to take a risk on you. You will never be without work if you are willing to ask around and may actually have a hard time turning down opportunities until your load is so full that you have to. Your good nature gives you a tendency to over-extend yourself and going the extra mile turns into two or three. Cultivating some boundaries and the impression that your talents are a relatively scarce commodity increases the efficiency with which you can serve and benefits the community more than running yourself ragged. Conversely, periods of surplus can lead to passivity and idleness whereby you eventually fall behind and have to catch up. Fortunately for you, a little effort goes a long way here, and you are back on top in no time.
