MARS SQUARES JUPITER:
On Tuesday August 4th at 9:07 A.M. EDT this boundless mass of energy will swoop down and draw us all into an ego-fueled moment of grandiosity. This can be the most positive or negative of aspects depending on how you use it. At its worst it can be arrogant and blind to the needs and desires of others. This combination tends to be overbearing and it’s easy to let your ego act from an unconscious place without regard for the results. But if you are someone who is used to this power because you have a similar aspect in your natal chart and have done some valuable work either psychologically or spiritually, you should be able to handle this without any negative effects. At its best this is a very energetic and active day when you can push through restrictions that may have been holding back your plans and projects. If you have something to accomplish you will have the force to do so. Just keep in mind how important it is not to act in a selfish or domineering manner. You may still be able to accomplish things, but you could create some lingering resentment from those you run roughshod over. A gentle voice goes a long way towards smoothing over any resentment that might occur.
