Retrograde Mercury in Scorpio is approaching a square with Mars in Leo, an aspect that will be exact on Friday, October 30, 2026, but with such powerful energy that it can already be felt and will persist this weekend. It may heighten tensions in conversations, negotiations, and personal discussions.
Mercury began its retrograde motion on October 24 and will remain in this apparent movement until November 13. In Scorpio, its symbolism is related to secrets, distrust, and unresolved matters. Mars in Leo, for its part, represents pride, impulsivity, and the need to be respected.
The recommendation for this Thursday the 29th is simple: Do not respond in the heat of the moment. A misinterpreted message, an unfounded accusation, or a dispute over money can complicate situations that still have a solution.
Which signs should pay more attention?
- Scorpio should think carefully about their words before addressing a sensitive issue.
- Leo will need to prevent pride from turning a difference of opinions into a confrontation.
- Taurus and Aquarius may also feel pressure in their personal or professional relationships, especially if there are unresolved disagreements.
What to avoid this weekend
Do not send important messages while you are angry, check the information before sharing it, and avoid making definitive decisions during a discussion.
At work, confirm agreements in writing, review the deadlines for your tasks, and the conditions agreed upon with your bosses. In love, ask before jumping to conclusions.
