Mercury enters Pisces

This is a time when your powers of perception will increase. You will be extremely receptive to the fluctuations in people’s moods and manner. Mercury in Pisces won’t turn you into a mind reader, but you will notice an increase in psychic abilities and nightly dream activity. Your imagination works a lot easier as the flow of pictures and images goes from being a trickle to a steady stream. You might even enjoy the “trippiness” of it all. But bear in mind that your analytical abilities won’t be as strong as you switch hemispheres from cerebral intelligence to emotional intelligence. It’s true that this will make you a deeper and more empathetic person but it could also lead to some serious lapses of judgment on February 28, March 3, and March 8. Signs most affected: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces
