As Mercury transits in Sagittarius square your composite Venus in Virgo, your charm may take a bit of a vacation and a precarious switch between hyper-analysis and overzealous optimism can become your communication staple. In simple terms, when Venus, the lovebug in detail-oriented Virgo squares, Mercury, the quick-footed chatterbox in brash Sagittarius, it's akin to meticulous Martha trying to explain needlepoint to hyper Harry who'd rather leap off to a new escapade.

In the interpersonal realm, your usual Virgoan ability to size up the pros and cons may find itself charged by Sagittarian thrill, leading you yonder in conversations. This is akin to you both deciding to craft a model airplane together and ending up discussing theories about alien life while the glue dries and the airplane pieces end up as unintended modern art. That can be entertaining, albeit a bit puzzling to unwanted participants, like your pet cat.

Counteract the propensity for communicative enthusiastic blunders by grounding your conversations in realities and clear objectives. It's sexy to strut your intellectual feathers, just remember that less can be more, unless we're talking about ice cream or kindness, of course.

During this transit, harmony may entail encouraging silent pauses in between your discussions. If this feels like attempting to pause a Star Wars marathon to discuss dust bunnies, try to make the pause feel natural. Keep your dialogue crisp and specific rather than expansive and rainbow-drooling-dreamy.

On the bright side, this time could unearth some delightful aha moments. Think of the moment when you both simultaneously realize that perhaps the remote was never lost, but residing in the oft-forgotten vertical dimension - the freezer.

Mercury in Sagittarius bordering your Venus in Virgo is your ticket to explore structured spontaneity. You'll get to add a pinch of zing into your typically pro-con-list approach to love. Do remember to tie the metaphorical laces of your communication boots tightly lest you both trip down a conversational mountain.
