The stars are urging us to focus on communication. This Pisces sun is serving up a healthy dose of empathy and intuition. Couple that with Mercury in Aquarius, the sign of innovation, and you might be asking yourself just how to best do all the connecting that’s called for.
Take this as a good opportunity to explore your personal communication style. (Capricorns and other overachievers might want to check out Robert Norton’s classic Foundation of a Communicator Style Construct for extra credit.) Whatever your style, keep your temper in check this week, as the fast-talking, sharp-tongued Mercury makes a square aspect with the Sun in Pisces. It will be easy stir up more drama than you’re prepared to handle. But if you can get your mind and emotions all lined up, this can be a huge boost to your creative pursuits.
We welcome the full Moon in Virgo on March 6, which means it’s time to focus on the details, get organized, and take care of any lingering tasks. Just be mindful not to get too caught up in perfectionism or criticism of yourself or others.
Consider how all this relates to the collective. If we can tap into community spirit while also staying grounded, we’ll get a lot done together this week.
