Mercury in Libra - October 3 to October 20
Generally speaking, Mercury functions well in Libra because it's an air sign. This placement allows you to see the other person's point of view. Mercury in Libra can't help but see the other side because it doesn't have a point of view until it knows of yours. Mercury in Libra genuinely wants to share information and know what the other person thinks. It is disturbed by coarse manners and poor taste in all forms of communication.
