As Mercury transits in Pisces, it forms a square with your composite Venus in Sagittarius, challenging the communication and appreciation elements in your relationship. This transit period brings complexity to your mutual understanding, often leading to blurred lines and mixed signals. Piscean energy might wrap your words in an emotional blanket, making it difficult for you to convey your points objectively. Meanwhile, the Sagittarian influence on your Venus can result in you both leaning into unrestrained, casual interactions, creating a disconnection and misunderstandings.

This phase encourages introspection, prompting you to examine the authenticity of your affections and the validity of your shared beliefs. As Venus in Sagittarius embodies a thirst for freedom and adventure, the square with Mercury could lead to disputes regarding personal space and exploration in your relationship. You might find that the desire for independence conflicts with the need for emotional intimacy Pisces craves.

With Mercury in Pisces at play, you may be more imaginative, inventing scenarios in your heads, or reading between the lines when there's nothing there at all. It's essential to avoid making assumptions based on these imaginative notions that fly in the face of your Sagittarian pursuit of truth.

Despite the difficulties, this phase also offers the chance to redefine your communication boundaries. This is an opportunity to navigate through the waters of your feelings to discover a communication style that bridges the gap between your sizzling Sagittarian passion and your deeper Piscean emotions. Stay open to this growth process and try not to resist the waves of change rolling your way.

While the Mercury square Venus transit is trying, it's not all struggle. Harnessing the mutable energy of Pisces and Sagittarius, you will find a way to navigate through these challenges, transforming your relationship into a richer, more profound connection that values both emotional depth and unfettered freedom.
