In the morning, Mercury in Capricorn squares off with Chiron in Aries, prompting communication issues. This transit finds us overexplaining, talking an idea to death. It’s almost like a reverse Mercury retrograde; instead of others misconstruing what we’re saying, we believethat our sentiments are coming out wrong. Other people might understand us just fine, yet we have a compulsion to keep hammering the point in. Due to our insistence on micromanaging each word that comes out of our mouths, others might exit the conversation, making our communication fears a self-fulfilling prophecy. Remember, not trusting your audience is an indicator of not trusting yourself. You are capable of explaining your views adequately. Say what you want to say and don’t overthink it. Only provide more information if you are asked.
After sun-up, Ceres in Sagittarius squares Neptune in Pisces, perpetuating a disconnect in how we offer care. At this time, it will be critical to listen to what our loved ones say they need instead of assuming we know the solution to their problems. In our enthusiasm, we can optimistically jump in to assist…with the wrong kind of support. Giving too much too quickly can be overwhelming for others and draining for ourselves. This is an important moment to guard your energy and be vigilant against fantasy projections to avoid disappointment.
