We're currently in the midst of our first Mercury Retrograde of the year. The planet of communication, learning, and travel has dipped back into dreamy, intuitive Pisces until the 28th of the month. Expect a dip in your energy levels now that we have quite a few planets in this sign, including the Sun and Neptune, which can make our minds a little foggy. You may feel a lack of direction right now due to the Piscean mutable energy. However, you are encouraged to surrender to the flow right now as this Mercury Retrograde gifts you the opportunity to reconnect with your soul and to receive the next steps for your journey.

Be gentle with yourself and others, as this is a highly sensitive time. Focus on developing your psychic gifts through meditation, divination, or dream work. Your inner world will be very active over the next few weeks. Try to keep a journal to record your experiences or to simply release the overwhelm of emotions that you're feeling during this empathic time. Overall, this Mercury Retrograde can be a beneficial factor in helping you gain the closure you need surrounding situations in which you've played the role of victim or martyr. It's time to revamp your perspective when it comes to using boundaries that empower you and contribute to healthier interactions with others.

Your ruling planet has gone retrograde yet again, and this time, Mercury is backtracking through your opposite sign bringing your attention to relationship matters. Unlike other signs, you're more likely to have an ex reach out to rekindle the connection or to gain closure. You could even find yourself missing someone from your past as well. You could benefit the most from the whole "masturbate then see if you still want to text them" approach. If you're in an existing relationship, this is a good time to address any imbalances and renegotiate your approach. You are encouraged to assert boundaries where they may have become blurred or never even existed.

There is potential to mend any discord within a partnership and this Piscean influence can soften your approach when it comes to working out the kinks. Be cautious of starting new partnerships at this time as there is an energy of confusion in the air and people may not be as forthcoming at this time. If possible, wait until April to make any serious commitments. If you must sign a business contract at this time, pay close attention to the details and be flexible as there's a possibility that the agreement could change in the weeks to come.
