description
The Mercury square Venus transit often highlights a period where communication and relationships may feel particularly strained or challenging. The mental realm governed by Mercury clashes with the affectionate and harmonious nature of Venus, creating a potential for misunderstandings or miscommunications in social interactions and relationships. This aspect can make it difficult to express affection and understanding effectively, leading to moments of friction or dissatisfaction in both romantic and platonic relationships.
During this time, you might find that what you think and what you feel seem at odds, making it challenging to convey your true intentions. Social interactions could become a minefield of faux pas or awkwardness as Mercury's analytical and often blunt nature squares against Venus's desire for smooth, agreeable exchanges. You might experience a heightened sensitivity to words, both spoken and written, perceiving them as either more critical or more demanding than intended.
