Sometimes, what's most obvious is what's missing. As the emotional Moon trines communicative Mercury, we're probably eager to share with others, connect with loved ones, and express our feelings in passionate ways. As the Moon proceeds from fiery Aries into grounded Taurus, what was said thoughtlessly in the moment may feel too dramatic or blunt. At 7:28 pm EST, when Mercury struggles to connect with rash Mars, it can become a bigger issue than was ever intended. Let's restore that balance.
Trying to share what you're interested in may backfire. You might think that you're just talking about interesting things you've learned, but your peers could believe that you're bragging or purposefully trying to confuse them. Still, they can misunderstand your intentions, but there is nothing that you can do other than be yourself. If it turns out that they just aren't on the same wavelength as you, then it might be a short-lived connection. Don't worry -- someone else will appreciate your enthusiasm!
Telling information that was someone else's to say could create problems -- whether you thought everyone already knew the details or accidentally shared share out of turn. Watch out for animosity between you and the person whose tea you've spilled, as things might break down quickly! Do your best to ensure that you're not speaking for someone who doesn't want to be spoken for, because if you do, things will abruptly get rocky. Let them speak up if they want to.
Insecurities could open rifts in your recent relationships. Making a joke that hits too close to home or saying something overly pointed may spark insecurities that seed future resentment. It can be hard to see these cracks forming as they begin, even if they're growing within you. As time goes on, you may notice the other person pulling away or find yourself withdrawing -- depending on which role you are playing. Make a point to speak kindly to the people that you care about.
A friend may not be rooting for you like you thought they were. You might discover this as you reach out to them to celebrate a win, and their behavior plainly shows their lack of shared excitement. While it could feel like an opportunity to turn the other cheek, it may not be a good idea to sit in silence about this feeling. If they can't be happy for you when good things are happening, then what do they want for you?
What could you be missing in the heat of the moment? Someone might have struck a nerve in you, possibly pushing you to react in a way that is unexpected -- even to yourself. You may not have realized how much you cared about this, so be prepared to give it more attention internally. Rather than allowing your passion to overcome you and embolden you to say regrettable things or make rash decisions, take a beat to breathe. Figure out what you're feeling.
Surprising conflict in a group could lead to hurt feelings. You might not have expected two people wound one another like this, as it's likely more heated than you have seen from them before. Maybe you're simply confused about what actually took place. It may feel like everyone has conflicting points of view, so ultimately, trying to make everything make sense might not be a genuine possibility. There are often three truths: one point of view, another point of view, and what truly happened.
A lack of leadership could set off arguments. You might be struggling with a tough decision -- the kind of choice that's hard enough without others simultaneously fighting for control. Instead of feeling like you need to take a step down, make your voice heard and have a say in the outcome. If you don't say anything, you may regret it once everyone else has judged the situation for you. They will have had their input, so make sure that you have yours.
Being secure in who you are may trigger others. You might bring an authentically unique energy to a party. This can be intense for others to handle, even when nothing is really happening. The gravity and magnetism that you carry can be challenging for those who are not comfortable with themselves. Any attempts to undermine you because of their issues should be ignored. Let your confidence speak for itself and don't worry about the opinions of those who can't do the same!
You might be who everyone is talking about, Scorpio! Maybe you've done something of note that everyone has something to say about. Whatever the details are, be ready for everyone to be practically glued to them. They may seem unable to stop talking about you. It can feel like a lot of pressure to have so much buzz centered around you, but you're capable of taking it in stride. You can be the talk of the town without sharing beyond your comfort level.
Miscommunication or deception? You might be suffering the consequences of misunderstanding someone else, even if it wasn't your fault. They could have made a mistake in communicating the information, or they may not have been fully honest with you about what was taking place. Figuring out what really happened will probably be rough -- it might be wise to lessen this person's influence on your path from now on. It's time to take back control of the direction you're going!
Unprecedented words may be splitting up your group. Someone might be trying to shut another person out of the circle or even sow discord and make everyone distrust each other. It's important to hear them out, since they could have a good reason for being suspicious of a specific individual. That said, if they have nothing good to say about anyone, it might be time to reconsider their place in your network. Otherwise, it may not stay connected for much longer!
Excessive passion can be misinterpreted from the outside. You might truly feel strongly about a person, situation, or cause, and are merely attempting to direct your passion into positive avenues. Be aware that others may accuse you of showing off or giving too much time to your interests. Ultimately, it's your life -- live it in a way that makes you feel alive! Once they see your vision come to life, naysayers may realize that they were wrong to discourage you.
