My Mercury Conjunct Venus Diary Entry
Alright, so I was flipping through my usual astrology stuff, you know, just checking what’s coming up. Saw this thing, Mercury conjunct Venus, was on the horizon. Didn’t think too much of it at first, just another transit. But work had been kinda stressful, and honestly, things at home felt a bit… quiet. Not bad quiet, just… distant? Like me and my partner were ships passing in the night, lots of logistics talk, not much real connection.
So, this transit pops up. Mercury – that’s talking, thinking, messages. Venus – that’s relationships, harmony, maybe even appreciating nice things. Them being conjunct, I figured, maybe it’s a good time to, you know, actually talk? Like, properly talk about how things felt, not just who’s picking up the groceries.
I actually spent a bit of time thinking about it beforehand. Usually, I just blurt things out, but this time, I sort of mulled over what I wanted to say. How could I bring up feeling a bit disconnected without it sounding like an accusation? That was the tricky part. I wanted it to be a Venus conversation – pleasant, connecting – not just a Mercury data dump of complaints.
So, one evening, felt like the right moment. Wasn’t planned down to the minute, but the vibe felt okay. I started the conversation. Just said something like, “Hey, feels like we haven’t really talked in a while, how are you really doing?”.
And honestly? It went way better than I expected. No defenses went up. We just… talked. I shared how I felt a bit lonely even when we were in the same room. They shared some stress from their side I hadn’t fully grasped. It wasn’t dramatic. It was just… easy. Like the words came out right (thank you, Mercury) and the feelings behind them were understood with kindness (hello, Venus).
- We talked about little things that had been bothering us.
- We actually listened to each other without interrupting.
- We ended up laughing about some misunderstanding.
- We even decided to plan a specific date night, something nice (Venus!) just for us.
Afterward, the air felt clearer. Lighter. It wasn’t like some magic wand fixed everything forever, but that specific knot of quiet distance? It definitely loosened. It really felt like the thinking (Mercury) and the desire for connection (Venus) just lined up perfectly for that conversation.
Looking back, it was a good reminder. Sometimes you gotta think before you speak, especially about heart stuff. And sometimes, the stars give you a little nudge, a little supportive energy, to make those tricky conversations flow a bit smoother. Didn’t solve world peace, but it definitely made my little corner of the world feel a bit nicer. Solid transit, that one.
