How these two meet
Two portraits, and the difficulty of this page is that they are of the same sign and not of the same person.
One of you does the width. Everything is interesting, nothing gets finished, and the not finishing is not a failure, it is what happens when the next thing is also true.
The other does the identical thing pointed at one subject at a time, which reads as depth and is the same restlessness with a smaller radius.
Mercury turns retrograde 315 times a century, about three times a year, and spends nearly a fifth of its life going back over ground it has already crossed. Two of those makes a house where every position is provisional, including the positions about each other.
And what neither of you has ever been asked for is a commitment to a version. Not of a plan. Of an opinion, held past the point where it stopped being interesting.
For one of you, the work is holding one position for a week, out loud, and taking whatever comes of it.
For the other, the work is not offering the more interesting alternative while it is being held.
The question
Which of you is the one who commits?
One conscious action
one position, held
Each of you take one opinion this week and do not improve it, complicate it or reverse it for seven days.
You will both experience that as a kind of dishonesty. That feeling is worth looking at directly.
Mercury is the fastest and least settled thing on the wheel and it is the only body in this house.
Two Mercuries in one house, and every position taken in it is provisional, including the ones the two of you hold about each other. That has been the arrangement since about the second week.
