Mercury sign calculator
Your Mercury sign is the zodiac sign Mercury was in when you were born. In astrology it is read as how you think, learn and talk. All you need is your date of birth, though Mercury moves quickly, so on a day it changes sign your birth time decides.
What your Mercury sign means
Mercury is read as your mind and your voice: how quickly you decide, whether you think by talking or by reading, and how you come across in a message. Astrologers often check it when two people keep misunderstanding each other, because it describes the way each of them takes in and hands out information.
Because Mercury stays so close to the Sun, it is often in your Sun sign or a neighbouring one. That small difference can matter a lot. A Sagittarius with Mercury in Scorpio tends to ask pointed questions and keep the answers to itself, and one with Mercury in Capricorn tends to want the plan in writing.

A worked example
Someone born on March 2, 1994 has Mercury at 23°02' Aquarius. Mercury entered Aquarius on February 21, 1994 and left on March 18, 1994, so everyone born in those dates has Mercury in Aquarius.
How often your Mercury sign matches your Sun sign
Mercury never gets more than about 28 degrees from the Sun as we see it, so your Mercury sign can only be your Sun sign or the sign on either side of it. From 1950 to 2010, this is how it came out:
| Mercury is | Share of birth dates |
|---|---|
| In your Sun sign | 51.0% |
| One sign away | 49.0% |
How long Mercury stays in a sign
Over the same years, a typical stay lasted 19 days, the shortest 0 days and the longest 69 days. Its stays are mostly two to three weeks. The long ones are the stays a retrograde interrupts or stretches, which happens about three times a year.
Mercury sign table by birth year
Every stay that started in each birth year, with the day it started, in UTC. A row's first entry is the sign the year opened in. Find your birthday's place between two dates, or use the form.

How these dates are worked out
We take each planet's position from astronomy-engine, the open-source astronomy library behind our birth charts, walk the sky a day at a time and narrow each change of sign down to the minute. Dates are shown in UTC. The shares above are worked out from noon on every fifth day of those years. How we calculate the sky shows the checks, with tables you can repeat them against.
