Pisces Weekly Horoscope

Two’s your lucky number starting this Monday, September 9, as messenger Mercury returns for an encore visit to Virgo and your partnership house until September 26. While Mercury was retrograde from August 5 to 28, you might have suppressed your real feelings to keep the peace or because you weren’t confident enough to take a stand. Or maybe you’ve been keeping quiet about your intuitive hunches or a “minority opinion.” Mercury, the cosmic communicator, can help you give voice to some of your deepest emotions, beliefs and desires, even if expressing them makes people, including you, uncomfortable. Every healthy relationship goes through some degree of conflict. It’s not natural for two people to see eye-to-eye on everything! But what makes all the difference in the world is how you approach the situation. If you’re ready to share what’s on your mind or in your heart, stay focused on what you’re saying and, even more important, HOW you’re expressing yourself. It’s easy to get defensive or self-righteous, which can make you come off as demanding or critical (or implacable). Be patient and listen as much as you’re talking. With Mercury here, conversations with a new person could quickly evolve into “how about we…” explorations. Just remember to take your time, get to know them and not assume that everything you see is necessarily authentic.

Regardless of your relationship status, take time out for Numero Uno this Thursday. The Sun in your dynamic-duos zone is generating a lot of heat around that theme, which could skew your judgment and fry your circuits if you’re doing all the giving. Partnerships, even serious dating, should involve a certain amount of balance, and if your scales are out of whack, take a minute to reset them. As much as you love doing things for the people you love, even you need to take the occasional timeout to rest and recharge your batteries. This Thursday, el Sol catches a challenging beam from no-limits Jupiter in your fourth house of house and family, your most foundational chart sector. This is a cosmic cue to prioritize yourself, your physical needs, your closest people and even take care of domestic duties. Devise a plan to spend more quality time lounging in your Fishbowl with relatives, friends or your love interest. On the other side of the coin, if a casual acquaintance keeps butting into your affairs or free time, don't worry about being polite. Just let them know unequivocally that you’re not interested.

On Sunday, expansive Jupiter forms a very different angle: a harmonious 120-degree trine with Venus in your eighth house of intimacy, eroticism and shared resources. There are no built-in brakes here, Pisces, so you’ll have to be the one to decide whether to go all in or get out. There might not feel like anything in between! These two “benefics” can bring opportunity and luck, but their combined optimism can blind you to serious limitations and red flags. (Think of the “manic” state of mood swings.) There’s nothing wrong with being hopeful and generous—as long as you don’t let yourself get duped by a player.
