While Mercury tidies its spy glasses and delves into the deep waters of Scorpio, a trine formation brings its focus onto your composite Pholus in Gemini. Let's fasten our cosmic seat belts because it will be an exciting and revealing ride, not unlike Detective Columbo deciphering a particularly challenging case.

With Mercury in this intense Scorpio placement, your communication takes on the intriguing flavor of a cryptic crossword puzzle. You may find yourselves exchanging Hitchcockian glances and whispering clandestinely for no apparent reason other than to preserve the atmosphere. Good news for those of you twiddling thumbs wondering what Netflix series to binge next; you're living it now.

Yet, the scorpion's deadly sting isn't in play here; rather, Mercury seems determined to bring forth issues that were hidden, briskly stirring the ocean bottoms. You're encouraged to expose and express your feelings, articulate your needs, and remember the password to your joint Netflix account. Through communication, you might also discover profound truths about your relationship, such as who secretly enjoys pineapple on their pizza.

Now let's talk about Pholus. In Gemini, your composite Pholus suggests that wisdom comes from adaptability, lightly stepping into various shoes-or rollerblades, or clown slippers. Communication offers an opportunity to adjust and gain wisdom. Trivial conversations or emoji-loaded text messages might open windows to unexplored territories in your relationship, shedding light on the difference between caramel and butterscotch popcorn.

With Mercury's trine to Pholus, the gate to unrevealed knowledge creaks open. Exquisite, isn't it? It's as though you're in an episode of the famous British series 'Sherlock,' where obscure clues lead to astonishing insights about your connection. Creating space for these dialogues may also lead to a shared wisdom that elevates your connection. One small tip though- get to the core of the matter without turning your conversations into 'Battle of the Decoders.'

Ultimately this astrological configuration invites introspective exploration, through more conversation...and perhaps a little less conspiracy. The detective work will be worth it, shedding light on parts of your relationship like a well-timed plot twist. Talk, laugh, and embrace the unexpected revelations. Don't forget the popcorn.
