^Careful Decisiveness Emerges^

People have a desire to modify themselves, maybe their bodies, hair for example, in order to be better channels for self-expression and participation in trends around them. 

There is much restlessness, and also obstruction. When some plans are blocked, others dart into view and one tries them out, trying to get from here to there quickly, with constant activity. Long-term advantages can be seen and grasped, making up for any recent losses or expenses. 

Mars has been in the sign Libra for a very long time, since December 7. Today it goes into Scorpio until September 13. In Libra, Mars was in the sign of its detriment. This is not "bad" but can cause wavering, indecisive behavior, and a tendency to rely on someone else for decisions. Now, in Scorpio, we may feel more sure of ourselves and our long-term direction.

Song of the day: Them Boys by Brantley Gilbert
This gets one dimension of Mars in Scorpio square both sun and Jupiter in Leo--Mars being the younger man and Jupiter-sun the older one commenting on his unmanly, boyish irresponsible behavior. Another version is harder to listen to but shows the singer and his group laboring through the song for a TV show. 

Organizing things at home seems essential. Suffering and gloom can be alleviated or avoided by settling down to ordinary tasks. There is curiosity and friendliness. You can sense what is useful (and what not) immediately. It is enjoyable to feel sympathy with strangers or casual acquaintances. There is catholic interest in life as a whole. When one avenue is blocked, others come into view, if one maintains morale.

^Rising Beyond Indignation^

I wish there were some magical words I could say to get you through this difficult day. As it is, I hope that warnings will stiffen your spine and give you courage to face the issues coming up.

A sort of disconnection from one's native land is something many will feel. Where am I, why am I in this peculiar situation? Why do I have to work so hard at things which seem meaningless? 

Then there can be intensely indignant feelings. One senses the trickiness of the world or individuals in it. One senses one's inner integrity rising up as, "I will not tolerate this nonsense in people, so I will live my own life apart from them and not let them interfere, and be at peace in my own wise world." 

So far so good. Then one may see in some individuals (Palestinians in Israelis and, with less justification, the reverse) intensely angry or hateful feelings which could overpower them and take them to the point of something close to murder, or else if it works out only on the emotional plane to violent emotions of revulsion (which might fairly be called hate). We all need to learn to control such intense indignation and I know no better way than through prayer, with faith in the Highest. Being taciturn is normal at times; or melancholy; but cruelty has to be avoided assiduously. 

Song of the day:  No Greater Love by Matt Maher
Even if you think you don't like Christian songs, you might find this one uplifting.

On a less intense level, some will be wanting to improve their appearance or way of presenting themselves, through fiddling with hair or clothing or whatnot. There are decisions about one's way of participating in the social milieu. There is also a sight-seeing propensity, a curiosity about people and life, which need not be morbid even when observing what appears sick or wrong in some individuals. A friendlier trend could be evoked, if one maintains enough optimism to do it, with a wider range of understanding and sympathy, with a recognition of equality (moon trine Uranus even as it squares Saturn).
