Sun conjunct Mercury natal is the best of all aspects for communication. Interacting with others is most important to you as it stimulates your need to share ideas. With such an active mind, however, you may become easily distracted when listening to others, butting in or letting your mind wander. You are probably a better talker than a listener.
Mercury rules communication, thinking patterns, rationality, and reasoning. Also, primary and secondary education, neighborhood, siblings, cousins, short-distance transport, news, and information. Mercury is fast, lively, adaptable, variable, unemotional and curious.
Self-expression is a really strong point for you. Conveying a message or concept with flair makes you a great communicator. Others will enjoy listening to you and watching you talk as you use gestures and facial expressions to help get your message across. You should be comfortable with public speaking and make a great salesperson, actor or politician. Your chameleon-like ability enhances your talent for acting or choosing a particular persona depending on the situation.
A natural curiosity matches your mental and manual dexterity. This gives ability with arts and crafts, as well as intricate or precise machinery, from watches to engines. Studies should come easy, like reading anything from novels to detailed instructions. There may be a talent for writing stories, and you may be good at interpreting symbols, font design or calligraphy.
You may have to contend with nervous ailments or an inability to relax with this aspect. However, the Sun-Mercury conjunction is generally beneficial in a natal chart.

I have grown to love my natal Mercury rx in Cancer 9th, but it is in a grand water trine with Neptune in Scorpio and Chiron in Pisces, so its a very sensitive as is a lot of the information I share, so I do need to be careful what I wish for and who I share my philosophy and healing beliefs with. I have been threatened and shamed for doing what I do best, many a time by those who dont want to listen or listen to be able to understand a little more of what I have to offer. I always trust my finely tuned instincts before I trust offering what is private, to any one, partly to protect myself from abuse and partly because, I do understand that telling it to just anyone, actually could scare the living daylights out of some people or confound their own thinking, either way do more harm than good. Not sure why I feel the need to make this comment, here, today, but, I do, so I have 😉
