If Mercury in Aquaria rebirthed your perception as prescribed, today as he passes over the anaretic degree you will see how and where your perspective has been shifted. This is valuable intel you don't want drowning in all the feels once Merc dives into Pisces later today.

Merc will spend nine weeks in these watery realms thanks to his retrograde from Feb 17th, a magical day if there was. In reverse gear he will dance back to this anaretic degree of Aquaria, checking in to ensure that new clarity of vision and understanding survived its dunking. This means we are officially in the shadow of his retrograde and things are not always as they seem.

Merc in Pisces is said to be uneasy here but he makes magical seahorses of us all. Gently schooling in the skill of surrendering to tides and currents, allow yourself to be transported beyond. A curious journeying that plunges us into sensation and emotion, all is liquid and fluid as we are gently moved by undulations that carry us into unchartered waters. Sharp edges, hard corners and clear direction give way to hazy dream states and intuitive pathways.

This placement is manna for creatives and artists, poets and dreamers. It fosters our spiritual growth by speaking our soul's language, a place beyond our steel trap minds. It is a viscous visionary state where symbolism and story, mythology and fabled lore is valuable currency.

Another layer of connection to our deepest divine feminine is on offer for anyone willing to truly traverse their emotional terrain.

Beware the lure of anaesthetic or bypass. Skip drowning in nostalgia or depressive hopelessness as your soul stretches far beyond all you think you know. This is an exercise in trust, following the kind of guidance your rational mind baulks at. It is felt not explained. Swipe left on anything that feels off on any plane of existence.

And instead darkling, let yourself be moved.

One can be the master of what one does, but never of what one feels
