Well, once again, the mantra speaks for itself and the aspects of these days. With Mercury stationing conjunct Mars in Leo (a sign denoting self acceptance) and trining Chiron, the wounded masculine (while in Aries), we can see this as an uncomfortable, but healing, time. It's not easy to go into what we consider our vulnerable weaknesses, and yet, it is where we find our greatest gold!

The "outside" may be demanding a lot of our attention, but I'm feeling that it is a test, only a test, of how much we love ourselves. Will we neglect our own personal processes and growth to meet the demands of "the Man"? Or will we be strong enough to draw the line, realize when we have given enough and refuse to be intimidated into giving more. The rewards are great for the inner work which is not so valued in this high paced, expensive, world. It takes guts! Let's do it!
