Aries — Saturday 9 May 2026

Dear Aries, Mars is home in your sign right now, which should feel like a shot of something strong. And it does — the problem is you've been drinking since Tuesday. That particular flavour of *Mars in Aries* energy isn't just drive; it's the inability to sit still when things aren't moving fast enough, which today they aren't, because *Saturn* is also in Aries, six degrees behind, wearing a hi-vis jacket and holding a clipboard. The two of them are rattling around your chart like rival contractors who've been booked for the same job. When things go wrong, you don't catastrophise. You don't spiral. You *pivot*. Immediately, decisively, and into something that wasn't the point at all. The original problem gets quietly abandoned while you throw yourself into a completely different project with the energy of someone who has definitely processed their feelings. The *Sun-Jupiter sextile* is genuinely generous today — there's real warmth in the air, and actual opportunity if you can resist treating it like a starting pistol. You can't, though, can you. --- *Fortune: The plan you abandoned was the one that would have worked.*
