The stars ask us to prioritize balance, equilibrium, and fairness this week; especially when it is a challenge to do so. Mars and Mental Mercury -now direct-both in fair-minded Libra- encourage us to straighten out all sorts of recent misunderstandings, miscommunications, and delays that accrued over the last month.
Mars in Libra can express circuitously, making it a little tricky for us to ask for what we need directly and straightforwardly, but as Mars squares willful Pluto this weekend that difficulty can build up a backlog unless we clear the air. Mars square Pluto can set up strange accidents and wants to fight for what’s fair and right and just, or just fight; we need to be mindful as we move through life and evenly express both our needs and our boundaries, openly but with compassion.
Those Libra planets ask us to look at our work life balance, at the give-and-take in our relationships and in our politics and see what we can do to bring them into a healthy equilibrium. We may need to re-evaluate fairness of chores and other contributions within the house, make sure the balance feels fair and appreciated. Assess this balance in every job, relationship, and within our society. Instead of stamping our feet if we don’t like the results of our assessment, let’s take on leadership and refocus the goal towards a more egalitarian relationship.
