Mercury Retrograde in Pisces- Feb 26-March 22

February 11 Mercury begins its pre-shadow period at 8° of Pisces. It will station retrograde (rx) at 22° of Pisces on February 26 and then travel all the way back to 8° of Pisces on March 20th. Then it will clear its shadow period on April 9,2026.

So, 8* Pisces is a significant point in the sky and this is exactly where the North Node will be sitting from Feb 14 to April 16, 2026. AND Venus will connect to 8° Pisces on Feb 16, then the Sun will conjunct on February 26, then Mars will conjunct it on March 12th!

Do you have planets or points at 8° of Pisces? This may be even more significant for you.

There will be fated + destined events that come into our lives on these days that relate to Venus themes: love, beauty, relationship, creativity, rest, abundance, resources, self worth, values and money.

This is a good time to get very clear about these topics in your life and to say yes to what is aligned and no to what is not!

Mercury in Retrograde is not something to fear. It is a time to slow down + really listen. It is a time for going back and forth over something until you get clarity. When we end up struggling through a retrograde, it’s due to not being okay with waiting, slowing down and ALLOWING things to happen in due time. Essentially retrogrades say, let go of control and let things unfold. The more resistance you have the more difficult they will be.
