Mercury, the cosmic chatterbox, has currently hunkered down in the sensitive shell of Cancer and forms a quirky quincunx to your composite Pholus in Pisces. This transit is a bit like trying to decipher your grandmother's old crochet patterns - it may appear alien at first glance, but there's a tangible magic in the unraveling.

Truly, with Mercury in the cardinal sign of Cancer, as opposed to a more gossipy air sign, communication between you always has certain depth. No chit-chatting about weather here, unless it's about that truly emotional rain scene in the latest episode of a hot drama series!

However, chuck in Pholus in the dreamy seas of Pisces and you've got yourselves an invitation to the greatest (and sometimes the most cryptic) cosmic cabaret show. Pholus trips the light fantastic in Pisces, opening floodgates of intuition and empathy, but it can also leave you feeling rather like fish out of water when it comes to making practical decisions. 'Do I feed the cat or the goldfish?' 'Is the paint dry?' And more headscratchers like these may haunt your daily routines.

As Mercury forms the challenging quincunx aspect with Pholus, things could get interesting. And by interesting, we mean like attempting to salsa dance on a balance beam - a bit nerve-wracking, but hey, wouldn't it make a great party trick? So don't worry if communication patterns between you become a touch scrambled for a moment, not unlike ordering 3 scrambled eggs and getting a batch of caviar instead. You just need to adjust your mental antennas to pick up the subtext.

This transit is a divine nudge to navigate all arcane channels of your relationship. Embrace the sensitivity, take a deep dive into the empathy pool, but don't forget to arm yourselves with a solid BS detector! The emotional complexities of this time period can be a little like trying to knit a sweater with spaghetti. But, ultimately, the shared exploration will lend your relationship new understanding and richness. Keep in mind though, it's okay if you're occasionally all at sea, as long as you remember to laugh at the occasional soggy socks.
