Benefic exalted Mercury placed in the fourth house of a horoscope can bless the native under its influence with good results related to his profession, finances, marriage, overall health, lifespan and many other types of good results. Accordingly the natives under the effect of this benefic influence may come across some of these good results depending on the overall tone of their horoscopes. The placement of benefic exalted Mercury in the fourth house of a horoscope is a very important placement and it has the potential to significantly affect or even govern the overall tone of a horoscope. This is due to the reason that when exalted Mercury is placed in the fourth house of a horoscope, the sign Gemini ruled by Mercury falls in the first house of that horoscope.
Hence Gemini becomes the first house or ascendant of such horoscope and Mercury being the planetary lord of the sign Gemini becomes the lord of ascendant in such horoscope. As we already know, the house of ascendant is the most important house in a horoscope and the lord of ascendant is one of the most important planets in a horoscope. Accordingly the placement of any positive or negative planet in the first house of a horoscope can affect the entire horoscope positively or negatively, depending on the nature of the planet placed in this house. Similarly, any type of strength or weakness to the lord of ascendant in a horoscope can affect the entire horoscope positively or negatively. In this case, Mercury is the lord of ascendant, it is benefic, it is exalted and it is placed in the fourth house of a horoscope. Hence it can provide strength to the entire horoscope and it has the potential to give some very good results to the native under its influence, particularly the results related to his profession.
Therefore the natives under the effect of this benefic influence may achieve success through many fields of profession, depending on the overall tone of their horoscopes. Some of these natives may engage in the field of law and they may achieve good results through this field of profession. For example, if benefic exalted Mercury is present in the fourth house of a horoscope in the sign of Virgo and a benefic combination of Jupiter and Mars is placed in the third house of this horoscope in the sign of Leo, the native may follow the study of law as the course of his higher studies. After completing his studies, the native may engage in the practice of law and he may achieve good amount of success as a lawyer. At the same time, if benefic Sun is also placed in the fourth house of this horoscope along with benefic exalted Mercury, the results may improve.
The native under the effect of these benefic planets may now practice in some higher court of law and he may earn good amount of success and money through this field of profession. Such native may specialize in criminal law and he may have good success rate which means that this native may win many of the cases undertaken by him. The presence of benefic Venus in the sixth house of this horoscope in the sign of Scorpio can add more positive energy to this equation. As a result, the native may become even more successful as a lawyer and his name may come among the top criminal lawyers of a region. However, the presence of benefic Saturn in the first house of this horoscope in the sign of Gemini, the presence of benefic Moon in the tenth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces and the presence of benefic Ketu in the second house of this horoscope in the sign of Cancer can give new dimensions to this equation.
Accordingly the native under the combined effect of such benefic Saturn, benefic exalted Mercury and all other benefic planets may get elevated to the post of a judge in a higher court of law, after practicing as a lawyer for some years. Such post of judge may be rendered to this native after his age of 42. The presence of benefic Moon in the ninth house of this horoscope in the sign of Aquarius when benefic exalted Mercury is in the fourth house and all other benefic planets are in the already mentioned houses of this horoscope can add even more positivity to this equation. The native blessed by all these benefic planets may now rise to the post of the chief justice of a high court and he may also rise to the post of a judge in the highest court of law of a country.
At the same time, if benefic Saturn placed in the first house of this horoscope in the sign of Gemini turns retrograde, such benefic retrograde Saturn can make this equation even better. Accordingly the native under the effect of such benefic retrograde Saturn, benefic exalted Mercury and all other planets in the already mentioned houses of this horoscope may get blessed with the post of chief justice of a country. It means that the native under the effect of all these benefic planets may become the chief justice of the highest court of law in a country. Such native may have an extraordinary career and he may especially come across wonderful things after his age of 41.

For example, if benefic exalted Mercury is placed in the fourth house of a horoscope in the sign of Virgo, benefic Sun is placed in the third house of this horoscope in the sign of Leo and benefic Mars is placed in the tenth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces, the native may become an administrative officer. At the same time, if a benefic combination of Jupiter and Rahu is placed in the fifth house of this horoscope in the sign of Libra, the results may become better.
