Mercury in the 5th house in Lal Kitab
Mercury in the house of children: bright children, a gift for study and success through intelligence.
Mostly helpfulWhat Lal Kitab says
The 5th house belongs to Jupiter and the Sun, and the Sun is Mercury's friend, so Lal Kitab reads Mercury here well: a quick learner, a good adviser and children who are clever. Study, teaching and strategy suit the person. The book adds that this Mercury favours a person who uses their intelligence to help others learn.
Why Mercury behaves this way here
The 5th house belongs to Jupiter (a neutral house) and Sun (a friend's house), so Mercury is a guest here. Its own house is the 7th, 6th.
Its relationship with the owner is neutral: the result depends mostly on what else in the chart it connects to.
House owner: Jupiter, SunMercury's own house: 7th, 6th
