Venus in Pisces today joins Mercury in Pisces which will station Rx tomorrow and conjoin the NN. Conversations from the heart may be destined the next week

Venus moves into Pisces today, where the field of attraction shifts from the conscious into something more diffuse and numinous. Venus is in exaltation here, operating beyond preference or logic and instead responding to emotional truth, surrender, and spiritual coherence. Beauty is perceived through feeling rather than form, and our values are shaped by compassion, devotion, and veiled truth. The heart becomes more receptive, more impressionable, and more willing to merge with something larger than itself.

In relationships, Venus in Pisces draws us into the pre-verbal realm of connection. Bonding happens through shared emotion, intuition, and unspoken understanding. Romanticism flourishes, often idealized and sometimes unrealistic, but undeniably magical and tender. This is love as empathy, where intimacy is created by meeting another person in their vulnerability without needing to define or contain it.

This ingress is especially potent with Mercury also in Pisces, creating a subtle dance between love and language throughout the month of February. When Venus and Mercury align, they form an artist’s conjunction that translates feeling into image, sound, and mood. Words become suggestive rather than precise, charged with symbolism and emotional nuance. Communication leans toward the poetic and intuitive, favoring music, art, and even silence over rigid explanation. Thought and affection blur together, making it easier to express love creatively, even when clarity feels out of reach.

To work with this energy in relationships, the invitation is to attune rather than manage. Listen for what is being felt beneath what is being said, and let compassion lead interactions. Allow space for ambiguity without rushing to define outcomes or intentions. This is a time to nurture connection through shared artistic expression, imagination, and gentleness. Venus in Pisces reminds us that love does not always need structure to be real, and that deep bonds can form when we allow ourselves to soften and stay open to the current.

☿℞ Mercury Retrograde — Reflect, Rethink, Realign

Mercury has stationed retrograde at 6° Sagittarius, ahead of the Sun — what astrologers call a Promethean Mercury Retrograde. When Mercury moves ahead of the Sun, it carries messages from the future back to us. It’s as though our minds are catching glimpses of what’s to come, but the body and world need time to catch up. We may feel restless or overstimulated, yet insight is brewing beneath the surface.

As Mercury retraces its steps, it will re-enter Scorpio later in the retrograde, deepening our awareness of what has been unspoken, hidden, or emotionally charged. We may uncover truths that have been gestating since early October, especially around communication, trust, and emotional honesty.

If Mercury is moving through your
Sagittarius or Scorpio houses, you may be rethinking themes of learning, travel, purpose, intimacy, and shared energy.
If you have mutable placements (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces), you’ll feel this as a call to adjust your rhythm and stay flexible.
Those with fixed placements (Ta**us, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) may feel the tension of change asking for steady integration.

This Mercury retrograde also forms part of a water trine with Saturn in Pisces and Neptune nearby — a beautiful invitation to blend intuition with discipline, to slow down and trust the inner tide. The skies are whispering, not shouting.

And remember: if you were born under Mercury retrograde, this can be your sweet spot. While others may feel delays, you often find clarity, insights, and breakthroughs. The cosmic rhythm is speaking your language.
