Mercury’s Drishti
Mercury in Taurus, bhava 2, casting its gaze across the chart.
Mercury's gaze lands on Raven's eighth house, sharpening her mind around shared resources, inheritance, and the hidden mechanics of transformation, though this can also scatter her attention toward anxiety about things she cannot control. Saturn's steady watch over Mercury means Raven tends to overthink before she speaks, which protects her from careless words but can make her hesitant to share insights that would actually help her move forward.
Where Its Gaze Falls
In Vedic astrology every graha aspects (casts drishti on) the house opposite it; Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu have extra special aspects. Wherever Mercury’s gaze lands, it colours that area of life.
