MARS ENTERS AQUARIUS

So, over the rainbow, MARS ENTERS AQUARIUS, imbuing us with a fiercely independent streak and the spirit to exert considerable force in defending our uniquely freaky chic.

Watch closely. Count the ways in which your closest brethren and your dearest foe all strive to diverge from any mainstream expectations. Sense the incensed anger and the outrage in protest to perceived injustices and unfair practices, see action and activism against such wrongs. Witness particular disdain for being categorised or made to fit into traditional boxes, railing unrulishly against conventionalities and striving tirelessly and recklessly to establish new paradigms.

The fixed nature of this sign means that Mars can be intransigently resistant to change, and being an air sign, it is inherently disengaged from its emotional and grounded aspects. Yes, we want the world to come around to seeing things from OUR fixed point of view, but fuck’em if they want us to shift to theirs. We will fight for our cause with mind to put an end to theirs.

And sex? Fuck that too. I mean… in an experimental and open-minded way, of course. Others will need to fall in line with our whack concept of sexuality, even if it means it’s more fraternal, with a fluid boundary between friendship and intimacy. It’s intellectual stimulation that turns us on, frequent squabbles and scraps over impossibly utopian ideals, and entire wars over political distinctions and humanitarian causes which must be hard fought (and won) before we can allow ourselves to give, and give we will (that’s a promise). Meanwhile, leave us alone to plook our wireless wifi-ready chatbot munchkin-man.

**As Mars conjuncts PLUTO in the next 24 hours, turn the intensity of all of the above x10 (and watch out for the obligatory violent outburst).

I couldn’t spell it out more clearly for ya…
