Aries Aries

As Souls, we evolve through our polarity. So relative to your Sun sign, you evolve, Aries, by embracing the Libra archetypes—the sign of relationships. Mars enters your opposite sign of Libra on Wednesday, Aug. 6, creating a significant shift for you. With Mars as your ruling planet, Mars feels at home in Aries—direct, assertive, bold—but in Libra, your natural impulses are softened, redirected, and sometimes challenged. Mars in Libra energizes a strong pull toward balancing personal will with the needs of others. You will have a desire to join forces rather than strike out on your own, encouraging you to listen as much as you speak. Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of partnerships, so working with others is your bold move—with this transit extending until Sept. 21. Temper your fire with grace, patience, and teamwork. You win by moving together, not by flying solo. Fortunately, as soon as Mars enters Libra, he forms a powerful Grand Trine with Uranus in Gemini and Pluto in Aquarius, energizing transformational change within Soul connections that occur with stunning speed. You may also unexpectedly meet someone who changes the trajectory of your life—perhaps they expose you to a new field of study or even introduce you to a new Soul path. New relationships across the board are possible now. If you do not see eye-to-eye with others, choose your battles wisely and know that you have all the energetic prowess in the world to ensure that everybody wins. This is a consciousness-rising trend as well—a make-love-not-war approach to all things, so become a peaceful warrior.

Mercury stations direct on Monday, Aug. 11 in fellow fire sign Aries, which should go far in getting your feeling wheels moving forward again in all of your cherished endeavors. My favorite transit of all, however, is when our two most benevolent planets, Jupiter and Venus, join to form a new-phase conjunction in Cancer on Tuesday, Aug. 12. The last time they merged in this way was Aug. 5, 2001, opening abundant doors for you in areas of home improvements, real estate, and within all of your emotional connections.

The softer you become, the better it gets!
