Mercury in Virgo opposes Saturn retrograde in Pisces at 7:18pm PDT, bringing a sense of seriousness to our thoughts, as we become aware of the reality of our situation. This is a sobering influence, and it can dredge up some fears and insecurities, but can also hobble imagination, as it is focused on feelings of responsibility. We would do well to remember that we are only responsible for our own actions and reactions, and taking on the weight of the world can be counter-productive to our efforts to improve our long-term prospects.
