What the Mercury MC line means
On your Mercury MC line the planet Mercury was directly overhead at your birth. Astrocartographers read this as Mercury's themes of communication, learning and trade becoming especially strong in the area of career, reputation and public life. The effect is said to be strongest within roughly 150 miles (250 km) of the line and fades with distance.
Places on this line are traditionally good for media, teaching, sales, networking. The shadow side to keep in mind is scattered focus and overwork. Many astrologers suggest visiting before moving: notice how you feel and what happens to you there.
