As Pluto transits in Capricorn, opposition to your composite Mercury in Gemini, it brings profound transformations to your means of communication. This phase marks the onset of serious discussions and scrutiny of your shared beliefs, ideas, and outlook.

While Gemini is talkative, flexible, and enjoys intellectual stimulation, Capricorn prefers structure, stability, and pragmatism. With Mercury being the planet of communication, this unique mix of polar energies creates a dynamic dialogue between you. But with Pluto's influence, you might find your strategies for handling information showing signs of strain. Pluto doesn't let anything be, always looking to get to the deepest layers. Expect misunderstandings and disagreements to crop up as the veil of casual conversation is drawn back.

For example, one partner's lighthearted comment on the future home's style may spark a profound conversation on life principles or sustainability. The usual chitchat might now feel tedious and unfulfilling as you think deeper about what really matters to your union.

Pluto's transformational energy can lead to a reevaluation of your shared mental frameworks. You may find yourselves delving into discussions on topics previously thought unimportant. For instance, philosophical views, religious beliefs, or political standpoints you once brushed aside may take center stage now.

In all this, remember that Pluto urges you to engage intensely but honestly. It doesn't mind disruption if it leads to growth. The key, however, is to maintain an open mind and to patient. Aim to reach a greater mutual understanding through respectful dialogue.

While this period can feel unsettling, it offers a valuable opportunity to foster deeper communication and a clearer understanding of each other. Yes, it will demand work and patience, but the rewards of a stronger bond and profound shared understanding can truly be worth it.
