As Mercury swings its merry way into Aries, you'll want to break out the crash helmets since communication is set to enter its tempestuous teenage phase. Picture your usual clear-cut, pragmatic chats being replaced with the energy of a rock concert in full swing. Yes, we're looking at words flying at the speed of light, impulsive discussions, and perhaps few expressions of more heat than light; the equivalent of communicating via emoticon, and we're not talking the smiling ones. If texting speed was an Olympic sport, this is your golden moment.

Now, onto the cosmic cowboy riding the galactic outskirts of your relationship, Pholus in Sagittarius. Famous for popping tops and uncorking unanticipated surprises, Pholus is that friend who announces they've 'got this' at a pool game, only to spring a leak in space-time with their pool cue. Lo and behold, Pholus, quite the maverick, is demanding your attention. The relationship will be akin to trying to catch a runaway horse; exhilarating and unpredictable.

With Mercury in Aries squaring your composite Pholus, think of this like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole whilst riding a rollercoaster. Expect to face challenging conversations, taking rapid turns and twists, with a strong undertone of 'hang on, what just happened here?'

Don't let this scare you, though. Instead, approach it with a sense of blunt-force comedy. Tarzan didn't swing from vine to vine without a few elegant face-plants first. Just remember, direct communication will be your jungle call. And as for Pholus, lean into the unexpected, weird, and wonderful moments. Relationships can sometimes be a divine comedy, and it seems the universe fancies a chuckle or two. Keep the faith. Even amidst discordant forces, remember to enjoy the symphony of life's contradictions and mysteries. Just don't pull a Pholus and try to ride a unicycle on a tightrope, okay?
