Mercury in Scorpio thinks in depth. Your mind penetrates surfaces instinctively — you want to know what's really going on, not what people say is going on. You are a natural researcher, investigator, and detector of lies. Communication is strategic and sometimes withholding. The gift is psychological insight.
