You are eager to talk about your dreams today but could grow annoyed if people don't take your sharing seriously. Their attention may wander while you're unfolding your interpretations of the symbolism that arises from your subconscious. Worse yet, others might even cut you off completely, without regard for your state of heightened vulnerability. You may need to resist your tendency to lash out at their rude behavior now. Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius wrote, "How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it."
You are itching to bring a sensitive topic out into the open today, but there are those who think that any mention of a controversial issue is too much. However, you won't take no for an answer because you realize how catalytic such a conversation could be now. But obstinacy on both sides will only harden, possibly bringing the disagreement to an unpleasant head. Recognizing that compromise isn't a sign of weakness enables you to exercise your flexibility. Dr. Debasish Mridha wrote, "Intelligence does not always define wisdom, but adaptability to change does."
You are in your glory today, smoothly slipping in and out of conversations, being serious one moment and funny the next. Your ability to engage nearly anyone on any subject is supported by communicator Mercury's presence in your 10th House of Status. However, the messenger planet's uncomfortable square to contentious Mars activates your buried anger so that it could flare up without notice now. Avoiding touchy topics maintains the peace. Marya Mannes wrote, "The sign of an intelligent people is their ability to control their emotions by the application of reason."
Your current self-confidence motivates you to take chances and say things you might normally keep to yourself. Although you may have an excessive amount of good information at your disposal, you could struggle as you try to tie it all together into a coherent theory. Stick with your most creative ideas now, for they are the ones that carry the greatest potential. Novelist Cathy Hopkins wrote, "Don't wait for your ship to come in, swim out to it."
You can skillfully turn any conversation into one about spirituality today. But you may have a particular axe to grind with someone who won't play a supporting role in your story. You're capable of transforming the nicest person into an unpleasant character if you don't get your way now. Ironically, your connection to the metaphysical teachings you want to discuss is severed when you try to micromanage things from the top down. Author Julia Cameron wrote, "The creative process is a process of surrender, not control."
You are irritated beyond measure when someone arbitrarily rejects your best arguments for no reason at all. Subjectivity has no place in a debate that should be built on facts. Nevertheless, your logic falls on deaf ears today, so save your best comebacks for another time and place. Rather than trying to win an argument now, just laugh and appreciate the absurdity of the moment. The winner of the current competition is the player who has the most fun.
Although there may be conflict among your network of friends and associates, you just want everyone to get along in spite of their differences. Unfortunately, your good intentions aren't enough to make everything harmonious in your world now, especially when people's beliefs take their thinking in a variety of directions. Instead of trying to smooth over the existing contention by changing anyone's mind, lead by example. Demonstrating your acceptance of multiple points of view inspires others to do the same.
You're not likely to hold much back when sharing your thoughts today. Although you can be very dramatic when you have a captive audience, going overboard with theatrics detracts from your heartfelt message. Rather than substantiating everything you say with facts, you're more likely to employ your opinions. There's nothing wrong with letting others know how you feel, but it's only fair to inform them of your subjectivity from the start. Science Fiction author Philip K. Dick wrote, "Reality is just a point of view."
You may be harboring deeply rooted feelings that you have no wish to share now. However, your unexpressed anger can tilt a conversation away from love and toward fear. You might attempt to gloss over your negativity by spinning it into a positive message. Unfortunately, it becomes obvious to others that you don't really believe everything you're saying today, leading them to doubt your other statements, too. Showing your vulnerability by revealing your less-than-optimum perspective can be quite cathartic as long as you steer clear of blame and self-pity.
You want everyone to know exactly where you stand and are certain that you can communicate your position with a high level of clarity today. However, something may go wrong even if you believe everything is going right. Logic comes naturally to you pragmatic Capricorns, but your words are tinged with aggression now; you can put others on the defense even if you are not attacking. Maintaining an emotionally clear posture is possible, but only if you fully own your suppressed feelings. Elie Wiesel taught, "Take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim."
The strength of your convictions is tested today when you are confronted with previously unconsidered facts. By discrediting the sources, you can reject the new information before you consider it. However, if you believe that the collective truth is more important than any single position you take, then you must be willing to reevaluate your assumptions again and again. Testing your faith now only strengthens it.
Creating a big to-do about nothing is one way to draw attention to your plight. However, you are likely to be misinterpreted by a coworker who thinks you just want to grab the spotlight. But personal recognition is not your primary motivation now; instead, you hope to cut through all the phony stories and help everyone see reality from a fresh perspective. But you may be so tied to your mission that you don't even realize the consequences of your emotionally charged words. Marcel Proust wrote, "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes."
