Mercury at odds with natal Venus

Your chart · time-limitedSteady♈︎Western AstrologyLoveSocial

Social flattery is unreliable now. Don't agree to events just to look good. Let shiny invitations sit.

In detail

Transit Mercury in challenging aspect to natal Venus, usually three to five days under a 3-degree orb at 0 to 2.2 degrees a day, stretching further around a station. Venus raises the weight given to looking good and squeezes out part of Mercury's accuracy, so exchange tips into flattery, a sales line persuades, and what gets written sounds right without being true. Where the soft angle put reason and warmth into one sentence, here the two substitute for each other, so read the content before the packaging.

FAQ

How long does this susceptibility to a good pitch last?
Mercury runs 0 to 2.2 degrees a day, so a 3-degree orb usually gives three to five days and longer around a station. Decisions involving money are best moved outside all of it.
Why does writing come out sounding right but not true?
Venus raises the weight on looking good and squeezes out part of Mercury's accuracy, and under a hard angle the two substitute for each other, so the content has to be checked before the packaging.
