As Mercury shimmies its way into Capricorn, you'll feel the favorable trine with your composite Sun in Virgo like a rather snug pair of astrological woolen socks, warming up the cozier side of your communication. This transit is a bit like a productive English tea party where everyone's wearing top hats and monocles - there's structure, there's crisp conversation, but be ready for a scone or two of dry wit!

There's an emphasis on practicality and a no-nonsense approach to your discourse. It's like you're both suddenly turned into engineers with Virgo precision, ready to explore the blueprint of your relationship. Arguments about who forgot to take out the trash? Expect those to plummet faster than Mercury orbiting around the sun.

This might be an opportune moment to tackle those ambitious goals you've been long nesting on. You're that pair of mountain goat climbers with Virgo's detailed map in your hands. Or, if you're not inclined to a literal mountaineering adventure, then tackling your taxes early could provide the same thrill. One person's summit, right?

Egos are likely taking a vacation during this transit, and honestly, no one really liked them at the party anyway. You'll find yourselves more productive with a dash of Capricorn's disciplined essence in your conversations. Though, just because egos are on leave, don't anticipate this period being as flat as a pancake on a supergravity planet. Mercury in an Earth sign trine Sun in another Earth sign is all about grounding energy - so don't be surprised if you two start to morph into human incarnations of ancient Oak trees during heart-to-hearts.

Just a little heads up: Mercury in Capricorn isn't known for its jokes about pink elephants wearing tutus. With your shared Sun in Virgo, you might find some chuckles in cross-referencing encyclopedic facts or... connecting the dots in your tax forms? Now there's a laugh. Enjoy the clarity and practicality that this transit brings, because every conversation soon may have more checkpoints than a Capricorn's to-do list.
