SCORPIO & SCORPIO RISING

Pause your notifications. Mercury is stationing retrograde and filling your DMs with mischief. Over the next few weeks, all of your communications are liable to get garbled — from message board missives to conversations with your cashier. To prevent accidentally starting rumors, or beginning an unintentional game of telephone, pare your words down to the essential truths. If you stick to the facts, there’s only so much scrambling that can occur. Keeping it simple will help avoid chaos over the coming weeks.
