With Mercury in Virgo, they communicate easily in an analytical way. They look for elaboration, precision and depth, and are not content to accept a statement without examining it. Memory and attention to detail can support self-directed learning and the study of languages.
They know how to find the information they need and place special value on what can be verified. Talking for the sake of talking may seem a waste of time to them: they want to know what each exchange contributes and what conclusion it leads to.
When they need to explain something, they may go into every detail until they are sure they have been understood. Yet when they listen, they tend to ask for brevity and to get to the point; if they have a task waiting, their gestures may show haste. That difference in pace can be hard for a partner if it goes unrecognized.
Their ability to spot inconsistencies is valuable when a matter needs clearing up: they can point out details that went unnoticed and help put the information in order.
