Let’s explain how Mercury behaves in Aries zodiac sign. Aries is the first house in astrology, the first house is related to self and personality. Aries is aggression, anger, and Mercury is communication. So, mercury in the house of aggression makes a person aggressive in communication (verbal or written). These peoples have clearly an aggressive approach to communication. They can become a very good social media activist or generalist, who can write and talk about any topic aggressively. Aries makes a person bold and brave so they don’t take any pressure from peers and seniors and mostly they stand with the right things. 

Mars is the enemy of mercury so when Mercury is in its enemy house the results depend on the position of mars. If mars is in its own sign it can make a person highly aggressive and short-tempered. If Mars is exalted in Capricorn, it can make a person a very good generalist who can work for human rights, children, and woman’s rights. This placement can make a person famous and successful.
