With house 9 in Virgo, you look for a meaning that can be verified and that serves. Your wisdom runs through accuracy, detail and usefulness.
House 9 in Virgo approaches the horizon with a graduated ruler. You plan a trip down to each stage, you read the reviews, you study the maps and you locate the right pharmacy before you leave.

Your beliefs go through a sieve: you want to understand how a philosophy works before you sign on, and you respect what works in practice more than what charms in theory.
Mercury becomes the ruler of your 9th house, and puts analysis in the service of fine understanding. Its position in the chart shows where your critical mind finds its ground: Mercury in the 6th house links your studies to your work, in the 9th house it doubles your appetite for knowledge. Mercury’s aspects define your style of thinking. This planet destines you to explain, correct, translate and make accessible what seems complex.
