This transit turns up the heat under motives you normally manage with ease. The body feels it first: clenched jaw, quick pulse, a sharpened sense of threat or urgency. Old survival strategies can leap forward—the impulse to dominate, to defend, to force a result. Often the “opponent” shows up as a person or situation that refuses to bend, mirroring a part of you that also refuses to yield. It’s not just conflict; it’s revelation. The question underneath is simple and disarming: what do I actually want, and what am I afraid will happen if I don’t get it?
Working consciously with this energy is less about winning and more about integrity. When you slow the reaction and listen for the deeper need—safety, recognition, autonomy—the heat becomes clean fuel. Anger clarifies boundaries; intensity becomes focus; pressure distills priorities. You’re learning the difference between force and power: force pushes to control outcomes, power stands in truth and lets consequences teach. Something in you is ready to evolve—an identity, a strategy, a vow made in a smaller life. Let the old armor fall without throwing away your courage.
Life Areas & Expression
Relationships & Connection
Dynamics of control, jealousy, or defensiveness may surface, sometimes through sharp conversations or standoffs. This is a chance to practice clear boundaries and ask for what you truly need without threat or retreat.
Work & Purpose
Ambition intensifies and political currents become obvious—turf lines, power brokers, unspoken rules. Aim the drive at meaningful objectives, and let ethics steer your strategy; influence grows when motives are clean.
Sexuality & Intimacy
Magnetism spikes, along with the need for trust and transparency. Naming desire and negotiating consent with care can transform tension into deeper connection rather than a battle for control.

Notice where your body goes to war before your heart has spoken. Pause there. Ask what you hope to protect, and what truth you’re ready to admit. Let anger be information, not a weapon; it can show you where a boundary belongs, or where an old contract needs to end.
Choose depth over dominance. When you honor your limits and speak from the center, you don’t have to push as hard. Some victories here are quiet—the decision not to escalate, the hard conversation held without threat, the willingness to let a dead form die so something alive can happen next.
The heat in me becomes power when I choose truth over victory.
