With Pluto's jaunt through Capricorn currently throwing squares at your composite Mercury in Pisces, it's a bit like cosmic heads-up dodgeball. Be quick on your collective feet and develop a sense of humor about misplaced keys because Mercury rules communication and short journeys - and Pluto didn't get the memo about playing nice.

Pluto and Mercury are like the celestial equivalent of a straight-laced businessman and that bohemian artist cousin who shows up unannounced for extended stays. As this astrological dynamic plays out, you might feel as if you are squaring-off in a heavyweight communication championship; words could become low blows and misunderstood intentions the knock-out punch.

So, remember to breathe. Pay attention to your conversations. Keep in mind important emails won't write themselves, despite Mercury in Pisces' fondness for daydreaming. Pluto in the stoic Capricorn might just help you make an inbox zero miracle happen.

Crucially, Pluto's transformative power encourages solid foundations. You anticipate the arrival of a trial-size Capricornian Saturn, bulldozing its way through your communication houses, restructuring as it goes. Don't worry, while it might rearrange the celestial furniture, it will definitely dust off the cobwebs too. Note: Ensuring scheduled phone calls to distant relatives are on point could prevent transforming into a two-headed monster on family holidays.

Pluto square Mercury has a peculiar way of declaring war on small talk. Suddenly, you'll both have this insatiable need for depth and authenticity in your communications. Embrace it. You know the saying, "two heads are better than one," but in this case, two tongues might need a caution tape.

No more sharing horoscopes over breakfast cereal unless you want to dive into a deep philosophical conversation about life, death, and whether that off-brand cereal really compares to the original. This is an illuminating yet intense period. Expect miscommunications but with patience, you can turn this transit into a powerful tool of personal and relational growth.
