Avoid making major decisions while your perspective is this constrained, as things often look better once the transit passes. Mercury Natal Placements.

This transit lasts 1 to 2 days. If Mercury is retrograde, this square can repeat, creating a longer period of communication difficulties and mental heaviness that requires patience.
