Mars Square Uranus

Mars Square Uranus - Round 3

"Pressure comes from a lack of preparation. "

— Colin Kaepernick

The Sun arrives in Libra, the sign of Justice and Balance at the end of this week. As the Sun moves through the last degrees of Virgo over the course of the week, it is as though we are provided a trail of breadcrumbs — minuscule details to follow. In essence, by following the breadcrumbs, we are preparing ourselves to better understand the developing view of a bigger picture. We may find ourselves continuing to struggle with uncertainty and vacillation but by keeping a narrow focus on the details, we should be able to make significant progress. Mars moves back into an impatient square to Uranus and approaches the South Node in Aquarius. With Mars square Uranus, self restraint is necessary to keep us from displaying erratic and likely ill-timed outbursts of frustration. The strain may produce some extreme challenges to our nervous systems if we aren't able to keep our focus on the myriad of details that we have directly in front of us. It is more important than ever to look at the fine print, analyze each phrase, word and angle and leave our Big Picture goals, vision, and perspective aside — at least for now. Once we reach next week's Full Moon (September 24, 7:52 PM PDT 1° Aries/Libra), we will find that this week's trail of breadcrumb — the details — have led us to a fascinating new perspective. However, we aren't likely to have any certainty, this week, of exactly where we are going or what it is all leading too. The lack of certainty may produce some uncomfortable questions that, in turn, lead us to try to stretch the truth in an attempt to satisfy uncertainty. However, such dissembling is only likely to produce increased impatience and lead to the increased likelihood of sudden outbursts of frustration.

Sunday's atmosphere is particularly restless and uncertain, potentially leading to to a tendency to blur the lines and stretch the truth as we try to distract from and uncomfortable questions. Increased responsibility on Monday brings increased candor. Nonetheless, the building tension could lead to some tangible strain on our nervous systems. Self-restraint is tested on Tuesday with Mars square Uranus. Steady effort will bring a extra dose of luck to help overcome the tension. If we can stay focused on the details on Wednesday, we should find help maintaining self-restraint — which is extraordinarily important. Continuing our focus on the details and the fine print into Thursday, we may recognize that there are important clues to follow — breadcrumbs — which will lead us to broader understanding and insight next week. Behavior becomes increasingly erratic under the VOC Moon in Aquarius on Friday. Much of the important activity is behind the scenes. The Sun arrives in Libra on Saturday, following Mercury's entrance on Friday evening. We begin to gain increased interest what others are really thinking. However such interest may lead to increasing paranoia. The insights that surface on Saturday foreshadow a broader perspective that will unfold next week.
