This is a good time to cleanse your mind and reprogram your subconscious. Repay and collect any debts that are owed.

Gemini: Communication mix-ups at work may cause stress. Re-organize your workspace, office, and communication systems.

What makes you feel alive? What turns you on? Use this transit to rekindle your inner flame. An old love affair may recapture your attention. But before you go prancing down memory lane, do you really see this person in your future? Focus on how far you’ve come and where you want to be. Committed partnerships should spend time reconnecting and re-igniting their connection. New love affairs aren’t likely to hold up once Mercury stations direct.

Leo: Cleansing your living space is essential for feeling grounded during this transit. Take a personal inventory of your home. How does it feel? Where does the energy flow best?

Before you make any drastic changes or unnecessary purchases, try changing the furniture around, adjusting the lightning, painting a wall, or adding flora in your home. Issues with your family and childhood may come to the light. You may need to retrace your steps and re-root yourself into a new foundation. Don’t be afraid to make peace with your past.

Research passive income streams and think about opening a new savings account. 

Scorpio: Your entire outlook on life is under construction. You may seriously be considering a change of image or social position. Instead of making any drastic changes, do the research. You may need to address issues with low self-esteem. Overcoming your fear of others opinions frees you up to share more of your light. Spend time getting to know yourself. Reaffirm your personal power and ability to manifest the world that you desire. It’s time to reframe your state of mind. 

Sagittarius: Mercury in this position calls you to retreat into solitude. You may feel alone or like no one truly understands you. Subconsciously old wounds and trauma are speaking to you through your obsessive thoughts and dreams. It may be helpful to keep a dream journal or diary with you at all times to write down your feelings. You may experience memories from your past that stir up sorrow, regret, and shame. If you are telling yourself dark stories about who you are and what you have done, then you are only bringing more trauma to yourself. Releasing your guilt and reconnecting to your source of divinity is healing. Spiritual renewal and rebirth is possible now. 

Capricorn: Old friends from the long ago past may be popping up left and right. You could bump into someone you deeply care about unexpectedly. Subconsciously you may take a withdrawal from the social realms to discover who you are without others. Misunderstandings with friends could cause some unnecessary tension. Lies and hurtful schemes will be exposed now. After this retrograde cycle you will most likely know who your real friends are. You may have the opportunity to recapture an old dream and get inspired for the future. This is a good time to research possible organizations and professional organizations that can help you grow. 

Aquarius: An old business project or career goal comes to light for completion. You can’t put this off any longer. You may be undergoing a change of status or position. It may not be going the way you expected. If you want to be successful in this new area you must practice patience. Reapplying for a job may be necessary. If you aren’t happy in your career this is the best time to ask yourself why. Entrepreneurs benefit by getting to know their customers personally. This is a good time to research new marketing tactics. You may need to revamp your public image. Get clear and define your niche. 

Pisces: Your beliefs about the world around you are under review. What do you want for the future? What does the future look like for you? What you do now affects the outcome. This is a good transit to review your stance on education. Students may be pondering deeply about their next steps. You may be struggling with piecing together the big picture, but it will most likely come together in the new year. If you find yourself being drawn to a specific place, go there. You may experience delays in long-distance travel. You may also feel confined and locked into one place. Retraining your mind to expect the best possible outcome is helpful during hard times. Stay focused on the positive.

2019 Mercury Retrograde In Pisces Horoscopes

Creative projects and activities bring a sense of relief and engagement beyond the noise.

What is Mercury Retrograde? 

In astronomy, when a planet is said to be in retrograde, it is an observation that the planet or celestial body is moving in the opposite direction than the other celestial bodies and planets. 

In astrology, when a planet is said to be in retrograde, the characteristics and abilities of the planet appears to be in Reverse. Actions may slow down and in return bring delayed effects to the area of house the planet governs. 

How does Mercury Retrograde effect me? 

Mercury is the planet of communication and information. In traditional astrology it governs Gemini and Virgo. Mercury controls our logic and analytical mind. When Mercury is in its regular motion it helps us process information and communication our needs effectively. When Mercury is in Pisces our communication moves from a more logical and analytical approach to one that is sensual, intuitive, and telepathic in nature. 

Things to do when Mercury is Retrograde in Pisces.

1. Take time to dream: Pisces can be known for their lazy streak but underneath the illusion they are very productive and creative beings. Taking time to try a different approach to your more analytical problems may open a new more creative way to respond. Visualization is a very effective manifestation practice when implemented consistently. Taking ten minutes to visualize your intentions could do wonders in opening up dormant places within your own mind. 

2. Create something: Pisces is naturally creative, all yin polarity signs are. However Pisces has this innate ability to create something truly unique and rare; a phenomena to mainstream society. Moving away from the more left-brained masculine ways of thinking and moving into a more feminine right-brained approach allows us to create from the center of who we are, the balanced being. Choosing to indulge in a creative project could build a bridge between a work related or partner based issue. If you feel stressed, create something alone, with your family, or with your co-workers. Invoking a sense of connection and communication through creation is truly a one-of-a kind experience. 

A gentle note of advice for the March 2019 Mercury Retrograde Transit: 

Focus on being you, loving you, supporting you, encouraging you so you can be everything you need to be for the world.
