One thing about this week is communications are the focus: whether bad, miscommunicated, deleted or denial. There is a little window later in the week when things start to clarify.

Mercury goes direct next week (this has been a particularly challenging Mercury Retrograde for gazillion reasons). Part of it, yes, is Venus is also retrograde. When you think about it, Venus expresses love, what attracts us, how we flirt, how we engage people, persuade…

Venus enhances all these skills because she's about how we each are moved to connect with people. Of course, some people are very good at seduction or selling. And others want to meet you in a very heartfelt place. Others chat, buzz, and stimulate. This time, Venus Retrograde is in Pisces… not everybody feels in clear focus. This period is absolutely fantastic for diving into the dream world, visioning and creativity — because with Venus and Mercury Retrograde in Pisces, we can invite the realm of fantasy, imagination, spirituality.

Some of us may go into La La Land and the deep sea of unreality. Depending on what you need to get done, it may feel as though you're adrift or have trouble concretizing anything. The delays will end after this week and the challenge is to invite in what is possible.

This week ask yourself: "Am I being clear? What is it I really want or need to say? How do I get my message heard?”
