But you know what? I&#8217;m going to enjoy it, because I&#8217;m looking at this transit as a much-needed mental time-out.<\/p>\n<p>Mercury is the planet of communication, and it relaxes as it spins through dreamy Pisces. Some people think of this as a lazy transit, when all we do is lie around and stargaze. But in fact this transit simply quiets all that busy brain activity so we can better hear our inner voice.<\/p>\n<p>Not only is this a great time for getting better in touch with your intuition, but it&#8217;s also great for pursuing creative projects because our imaginations will be soaring.<\/p>\n<p>As an over-thinking Gemini and as a writer, I&#8217;m very much looking forward to this transit and its creative opportunities.
