The exact <b>Mars-Saturn square<\/b> may not happen until Wednesday, and the exact Mars-Neptune conjunction might not actually be exact until next week, but their effects will certainly be felt throughout the week. That could make this week a bit of a minefield.<\/p>\n<p>So, how to get through safely? Let&#8217;s break this down into handy bite-size chunks.<\/p>\n<p>Mars represents many of the basic drives, most notably the drive to sex and aggression. For the last few weeks, Mars has been in Aquarius, which is not a bad place for it. A bit weird maybe, but not bad. However, overall <b>Pisces is too sensitive a place for Mars to be<\/b>. You can expect the general tone for the next few weeks to be a little moodier than usual, amplified this week in particular.<\/p>\n<p>Complicating things further is the <b>conjunction with Neptune<\/b>. Neptune has a way of diffusing anything it touches, if there&#8217;s one thing Mars doesn&#8217;t like, it&#8217;s to be diffuse. Mars want straightforward action, and Neptune is entirely too Zen\/fluid\/unfocused for that sort of thing, and Mars square Saturn is not helping things much either. It&#8217;s a difficult placement where sometimes your ambitions will be frustrated, and sometimes those frustrations will drive you to anger or rash action.<\/p>\n<p>So: where is the light at the end of this particular tunnel? Easy. Odds are very good that there is something or other in your life right now that need significant change, and for one reason or another you haven&#8217;t worked up the courage or the inspiration for the motivation to change it.<\/p>\n<p>Now. <em>Now is that week.<\/em> Plan your attack carefully, make sure you aim properly, then fire. Why sit back and wait for Fate to make the changes you need?<\/p>\n<p>The key to pulling this off may be Venus. It&#8217;s still in Aquarius this week, and thus has a certain fondness for fairness and even-handed dealings. <b>Venus is in sextile range of Uranus<\/b> for most of the week (reaching the exact aspect on Tuesday), so if what you need is a helping hand of fresh ideas or unusual circumstances, there&#8217;s a good chance that&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll get. If what you need specifically is a helpful disruption to the current state of your love life, Friday and Saturday&#8217;s Moon in Sagittarius is up to the challenge of a new adventure, or a new chapter in an existing story. Even though the Moon is Void of Course for most of the day Saturday, traditionally Moon in Sagittarius has a way of getting things done even when it&#8217;s Void better than most other placements.<\/p>\n<p>But, like I said: <em>aim carefully first.<\/em> A frustrated or poorly planned Mars action is as likely to go off in your face as it is to make it to its target.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mars wanders into a bad neighborhood.
