Mercury is green as the blade of Durva or panic grass. He is a mixture of the three humours — Vata (wind), Pittha (bile) and Kapha (phlegm). His body is full of veins. He is pleasant in his speech. He has red and long eyes and is clad in green. He governs the skin, is fond of fun and possesses even limbs.
