As Venus transits into Leo, it enters opposition with your composite Mercury in Pisces, shedding light on the passionate and emotional aspects of your joint communication, while potentially highlighting some lingering challenges. Venus in Leo brings an expressive, warm, and theatrical side of affection. It bathes your connection in grand, radiant expressions of love, encouraging dramatic gestures and a larger-than-life atmosphere. For you, love might feel like an unending performance, a play where you are both spectators and actors, soaking in the limelight.

Conversely, your composite Mercury in Pisces infuses your joint communication with depth and sensitivity. Your dialogues twinkle with insights into the collective unconscious, seeking a mutual understanding far beyond the physical realm. You crave strongly intuitive and empathetic dialogues which resonate with your hearts.

In this opposition phase, Venus in Leo's heart-on-sleeve romanticism may clash with Mercury in Pisces' subtle, imaginative exchanges. You might find yourselves facing a tug-of-war between 'telling it as it is' and 'letting the silence speak'. Outward declarations of love may feel awkward or overblown, especially if you relate more naturally to the muted, mystical language of your shared Mercury in Pisces. The fiery essence of Leo may sometimes overwhelm Pisces' gentle approach, leaving room for misunderstandings or feelings of not being undervalued.

However, this transit also offers an opportunity. By embracing the fiery passion of Leo without losing the tender empathic connection of Pisces, you could cultivate a dynamic, balanced exchange. Venus in Leo is encouraging you to take center stage in expressing love, while Mercury in Pisces urges compassionate listening to ensure that the spoken words align with the unexpressed sentiments.

In navigating this cosmic dance, strive to integrate the passionate, direct Leo energy and the mystical, indirect Pisces tone. The opposition encourages equilibrium: a dance where each of you has room to express love openly, yet maintains a deep sensitivity to the other's cues and undercurrents. This transit, through loving expression and empathetic communication, could deepen and enrich your shared bond.
