As Mercury stations retrograde, a financial merger brings unexpected surprises. At the very least, time is needed to pore over the fine print and ask some probing questions. Remember no query is beyond the pale, especially when money is involved. If your spidey sense is tingling about a patron, grant, or loan, enlist advice from an advisor or your most sensible friend. By getting a second opinion, you’ll either feel affirmed or ready to pivot. Win-win, either way.
