Mercury returns to deep-diving Scorpio today. For about the next three weeks, you’ll be more eager to investigate and get to the bottom of things. You may find that you get to know those around you on a deeper level as you prioritize depth and seek meaningful conversation. Some will begin to recognize the larger processes and powers that are at work in this atmosphere. Of course, some may only see such forces in terms of underhanded conspiracies and find themselves feeling vulnerable and confused. Nonetheless, seen in a broad and expansive context, there are indications of an orderly and methodical process underway that is actually quite stabilizing and operating as we should expect. However, today’s glimpse of reality also highlights our mistakes and may reveal that our expectations have been wildly out of line. Faith in ‘the process’ is a helpful antidote to any disappointment.

The practical and analytical Virgo moon opposes dreamy Neptune, heightening emotions and increasing sensitivity. While we’ll be able to see things from an idealistic perspective, it will be important to take off the rose-colored glasses. Snap out of it! Otherwise, you could lack the stability to see the reality of a situation and run the risk of missing major red flags. Specifically, in your love life, it’s important not to project your desires for what you hope for onto a partner. Look realistically at what they bring to the table.

However, be mindful of writing people off too hastily. Avoid compromising your acumen. Guarded emotional reactions could cloud your judgment. You could be prone to being more suspicious and private, assuming others are concealing important information or truths. Don’t be so quick to unleash the Scorpion’s stinger. You could confuse conviction with paranoia!
