When Mercury transits in Scorpio and opposes your composite Neptune in Taurus, your communication as a pair might take a dive into deeper, sometimes murkier waters. This period challenges not just what you say to each other, but how you perceive each other's words. Misunderstandings could pop up more frequently than a cat in a box factory.

Imagine you are both detectives in an old noir film, where every shadow has a mystery and every sentence a double meaning. During this transit, everyday conversations might feel filled with intrigue. One of you says, "Pass the salt," and the other wonders, "What could that really mean?" It's a time when you might find yourselves deciphering each other's texts and emails as if they were cryptic clues left by a spy.

Neptune's foggy veil can make it difficult to see things clearly. It's easy to misinterpret what is meant as a straightforward comment for something deeper or inadvertently hurtful. However, this transit also provides an excellent opportunity for you both to explore the underlying truths of your relationship. Talk about your shared dreams and illusions. Maybe plan a treasure hunt where the real treasure is understanding each other better (and finding that lost TV remote).

As Scorpio deepens Mercury's analytical prowess, use this to tackle and discuss any creative projects or spiritual pursuits either of you have been pondering. Neptune in Taurus adds a lovely twist of intuition to your interactions, which can open doors to unspoken realms. Don't be surprised if you find yourselves finishing each other's sentences or discovering a mutual love for obscure 70s folk music.

Remember, this transit is temporary and learning to navigate its waters together strengthens your bond. Enjoy the deep dives, even if you occasionally get water up your nose. Think of this as an adventure game, sometimes you hit a puzzle, but solving it together is half the fun.
