During this period, other people become the main mirror of your words, gestures, and way of explaining yourself. Another person brings a question, news, agreement, argument, or clarification through which you see your own position better. The opposition teaches you to think in dialogue, not alone or in defense.
Mercury opposite the Ascendant activates negotiations, correspondence, consultations, meetings, and exchange of opinions. A partner, client, close person, or opponent says something that makes you clarify tone and arguments. It is easy here to get stuck in proof if you treat any question as an attack. But the aspect is valuable precisely through feedback.
