Words and feelings don't always match up for you, and that's actually where your charm lives. Your Venus sesquiquadrate Mercury creates this fascinating disconnect where your heart knows exactly what it wants to say, but your mouth seems to have other plans. You might find yourself stumbling over compliments or accidentally saying something that comes out wrong when you're trying to be sweet, but people are usually drawn to this genuine, unpolished way you express affection.
The beauty is that you've learned to get creative with how you show love because straight-up saying it doesn't always work smoothly. You probably write better love notes than you give speeches, or you find yourself using humor to bridge the gap when words fail you in romantic moments. This aspect pushes you to find new ways to communicate care, whether that's through thoughtful gestures, artistic expression, or just being patient enough to try again when the first attempt at explaining your feelings doesn't land quite right.
That transiting Venus sesquiquadrate your natal Mercury is creating some interesting friction between your heart and your head right now. You might find yourself saying things that sound perfectly clear in your mind but somehow land differently when they come out of your mouth. It's like your feelings are trying to speak a language your brain hasn't quite mastered yet, which can make conversations feel a bit bumpy or leave you wondering why that sweet comment got such a weird response.
The good news is this awkward dance between Venus and Mercury is actually teaching you something valuable about how you express affection and connect with others. Pay attention to the moments when your words don't match your intentions because that's where the growth happens. Take an extra beat before responding in conversations and you'll find ways to bridge that gap between what you feel and how you say it. This transit won't last long but it's giving you a chance to become more thoughtful about how you communicate care and creativity to the people around you.
