Scorpio — today

Saturn in Aries is sitting opposite the Sun today, and for you that opposition is going to feel personal in a way that is hard to explain to anyone else. The week has asked a lot of you in terms of holding things carefully, managing what you say and when, keeping the shape of things controlled. Today that effort is going to cost more than it returns. Something in the structure you have been maintaining is going to show a seam, and the more you try to smooth it over, the more visible the effort becomes. Venus and Mars are in a tight square, and that friction is going to run through any situation where what you want and what you are willing to show you want are not the same thing. Which, this week, is most situations. Mars and Uranus are in a clean sextile, so there is a practical opening available, something that comes from a direction you were not watching. If you can loosen your grip on the plan long enough to notice it, it will do more for you than the control has.
