Feel like you are balancing on a bed of thorns? Mars and Saturn are close to conjunction. Not a comfortable energy at all.

When Mars and Saturn join up there is a frustration that occurs, especially when things are not going our way. This will bring about the inability to control tempers resulting in an explosive outburst as hostilities, that have been on the back burner, come to the fore.

Resentments and anger will be very difficult to control; unacknowledged resentments will boil over during this conjunction and cause all sorts of damage.

This Mars/Saturn conjunction is also troubling as it falls on Antares a violent fixed star of the nature of Mars and Jupiter.

As Jupiter is the overall ruler of this conjunction we look to him for guidance. Jupiter too is in poor condition, in his detriment so not of much use. But Mercury comes into this picture and this is good.

Mercury is in the logical analytical sign Virgo, giving us the ability to look at any explosive situation and deal with the repercussions in a practical systematic manner.

Just be aware that this conjunction is like a hidden trip wire that when activated can trigger an explosion.

When in a red rage anger it is difficult to see the trip wires, so try to bring logic into anger. If not then a lot could be lost.

In a positive vein, a sudden happening could trigger all sorts of benefits, or a project that has been slow will suddenly gain momentum .Be ready for action, use this explosive power to grow rather than destroy.
