Transit Mercury will be in the sign of Pisces from March 16th until March 31st, 2023. Mercury is debilitated in the sign of Pisces.
This means that the planet of communication, intelligence, and analysis is not functioning at its best in this particular zodiac sign.Mercury is the ruler of Virgo and Gemini, and both of these signs thrive on analytical and logical thinking. Pisces, on the other hand, is a water sign that values intuition, creativity, and spiritual pursuits. These two energies can clash, leading to confusion, indecisiveness, and a lack of clarity.
However, a debilitated Mercury in Pisces can also bring about heightened creativity and imagination. It will give us the ability to think outside of the box and come up with innovative solutions to problems. This is an amazing time for artistic or spiritual pursuits.
Do not get stuck in the details and leave some room for imperfection and take pleasure in Venusian comforts and activities. Be aware of any inclination towards alcohol, tobacco, or other substances during this time.
