Mercury Rx in Pisces
When Mercury goes retrograde, mistakes, misunderstandings, problems in communication and transportation are likely. Do not sign contracts, nor buy new items, nor begin new projects. It is an excellent time to plan, research, and prepare for something that will happen later.
Don’t make any important moves when Mercury is retrograde. Nothing will be settled successfully for the future during these periods anyway – you will find it nearly impossible to nail down a plan. During a retrograde period, it is hard to get decisions from others. Even if a decision is made, it will be subject to change, either just after Mercury turns to direct motion or much later.
Mercury retrograde periods would not be good times to do anything involving communications, such as launch a magazine, website, or an advertising or publicity campaign. It is a poor time to launch any new projects, even if they are not related to the communications industries.
Similarly, a retrograde period is not a good time to sign any contracts or even to shake hands on any new agreements. Avoid closing on a house during this time nor sign a lease. Verbal agreements are considered the same as written ones. The environment will be quite fluid and changeable, no matter what you are told or what you think.
Sun in Pisces
With the Sun now in Pisces, we are guided by altruistic feelings. We are less motivated to do than we are to feel, imagine, and dream. A “what will be, will be” attitude reigns, and we are guided by a sense of universal correlations. Pisces rules empathy, selfless love, devotion, and wisdom. you will be more sensitive, impressionable, warm and loving. Imagination is increased as you see the poetry of life, and no matter where located you infuse a sense of the beautiful into your surroundings.
You are more of an optimist and dreamer, seeking a quite life with as little trouble as possible. A stronger sense of service and compassion can be felt during this time. On occasion you find yourself put on by others, and torn by emotions and desperate to do the right thing, you become easily confused, giving way for the sake of peace and harmony. You can be more intuitive and sentimental and have a tendency to live in a make-believe world, giving little attention to practical matters. Acting from the highest ideals your kind nature endears you to others. Its shadow side rules self-pity, a feeling of being victimized by life, passivity, and elusiveness.

Be careful of strong negative emotions such as depression and loneliness. These emotions may be quite strong and misguided, do not expect too much from your loved ones they are only human.

You will be more compulsive than usual, be wary of people using manipulation, control or exerting power over you. Jealousy, guilt and other negative emotions may surface, consequently rocky relationships may suffer. There are powerful energies at work in your love life now and the vibration is positive and can force constructive change. If you are finding problems, it is time to reflect on your motivations and where your power and ego are out of place.
