Mercury Retrograde in Pisces you sneaky little 🤬
So THAT’S why everyone’s in their feelings 🫠🐟🪐
I wasn’t even aware we were in retrograde 🤷♀️
I was just sitting there thinking…
Why is everyone so intense?
Why am I getting emotional novels via voice note?
Why are old clients, old friends, and possibly old versions of myself resurfacing?
And then I saw it.
Good old Mercury retrograde, this time in Pisces. ♓️
Ahhh. So that explains it.
When Mercury (planet of communication, tech, thoughts) appears to move backwards, things tend to get a little… reflective.
Add Pisces into the mix the dreamy, intuitive, emotional, boundary-blurring water sign and suddenly we’re not just misreading texts.
We’re misreading vibes.
We’re feeling everything.
We’re revisiting the past; in HD 🙈🤣
So what’s actually happening?
Mercury retrograde = review, revisit, rethink.
Pisces = intuition, emotion, subconscious, spirituality, blurred lines.
Laymen’s terms?
🪐 The past may resurface.
🪐 Unfinished emotional business may knock.
🪐 Conversations feel deeper, heavier, or oddly fated.
🪐 People may be more sensitive, nostalgic, or even needy.
If things feel weirdly intense right now, here’s how to stay grounded:
1. Pause before responding.
Not every emotional wave requires you to surf it immediately 🌊
2. Reality-check the story. Pisces energy can romanticise or catastrophise.
Ask:
Is this true?
Is this old?
Is this projection?
3. Journal the déjà vu.
If something feels familiar, it probably is. Retrogrades love patterns!!
What is this reminding you of?
4. Strengthen boundaries (gently) Compassion doesn’t require self-sacrifice. You CAN care without absorbing.
5. Ground your body: Water energy needs earth. Walk barefoot. Plant a shrub or better still, herbs 🪴
Lift weights. Clean a drawer. Do something practical.
6. Expect delays, emotionally and practically.
Tech might glitch (thanks Merc! 🪐). Plans might shift. People might need reassurance - remember softness.
The deeper invitation:
Mercury retrograde in Pisces isn’t here to ruin your life. (Honest! 😜)
It’s here to show you where you’re still tender.
Where you haven’t quite forgiven.
Where you might still be romanticising, avoiding, or over giving.
So if you’ve been wondering why everyone’s so needy and intense…
It might not be you.
It might just be Mercury asking:
“What unfinished emotional story are you ready to close?”
Be gentle
Be clear
Double-check your emails / texts and voice notes before deciding that something/ someone is off, breath.
And maybe don’t text your ex. 😉
DEFINITELY don’t text your ex 🤣
Please take what you need from this post, and leave what does not align - I don’t want any trouble 🥴🤣
