Unleashing the Beast, Mars in Leo

This week's energy carries the chaotic vibrations of the T-square and Grand Cross of Venus (values, love, money), Jupiter (abundance, fortune), Uranus (awakenings, change), and Pluto (destruction, regeneration). Increased sensitivity from Monday's Sun/Neptune opposition can move imagination into overflow. With possible anxiety, confusion, and uncertainties scattering in various directions, we could feel like a 'sitting duck' or easy target… just waiting for something (or someone) to completely snap.This is where we can experience challenge and struggle, if we're still hanging on to a rainbow that promised us gold. Dreamy Neptune may have us fantasizing about a 'happily ever after', but Uranus is surprising us with pieces of truth, to better to understand what we're actually holding onto. And without the assistance of dedicated Saturn and investigative Pluto, we might overlook valuable keys that unlock doors with hidden answers. Go with the flow, and let information and opportunities find you. Resistance of any sort is an energy waster. Listen well, for there is much to learn and grow toward as we travel along side of Jupiter.Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don’t really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It’s just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy. Pema ChödrönWith Sun and Mercury both in grounded Virgo, we'll be trying to lay low as we take stock of all that we've accumulated. Realizing that our wellness matters, we'll be figuring out some new priorities, through weeding, reorganizing, and firmer scheduling. Less clutter on the inside, improves travel and communications on the outside. But in this squeaky-clean vision, a search for perfectionism and something flawless, could sound more like criticism to another. Be mindful with what you share with others.Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves. Henry David ThoreauMars enters Leo. While Mars has been in sympathetic Cancer for the last few weeks, our walk through life may have proved to be more confusing and misleading. As we tried to create a kinder outcome, we may have learned how to dance in the rain instead. Through some fancy sidestepping, we managed to avoid the puddles that would get out feet too wet and muddy.The more you worry, the less you take action; the more you take action, the less you worry. Todd WeberAs fiery Mars travels into ferocious Leo today, we can expect that temperatures and passion will rise generously during the next six weeks. Mars is a warrior vibration that is brave and daring, but it's also aggressive and violent. With Mars in Leo, the energy is raw, sexual, and territorial. The wild beast inside courageously roars while honoring the calling of the heart. We'll be consumed with creating something magnificent and pure, instead of what we've settled for. This is all about action, and we're ready to display our strength. So something is bound to heat up and rise in this beautiful shining light, but if we aren't careful when playing with fire, something could possibly go wrong and end up in flames, uncontrollably burning bridges to the ground. Reminder: You'll be set on fire my friend, and to survive and win this competition, you will need to rely on your natural instincts, your muscle, and your backbone.
