This transit enlivens the edge where “I” meets “You.” Desire becomes more audible, and the body’s yes/no sharpens. You may feel bolder about asking, naming preferences, and stepping toward someone rather than staying safely neutral. Even tension can feel enlivening, not threatening—like a spark that wants traction. Attraction, rivalry, and partnership all carry heat, inviting a more immediate presence with the person across from you.
Working consciously here means turning impulse into invitation. Courage doesn’t have to dominate; it can make room. When you let your will speak plainly while staying curious about the other person’s truth, you create a clean field for agreement or honest difference. This is a chance to practice a brave kind of cooperation: to negotiate without hedging, to bring energy without pressure, and to remember that mutuality is stronger than victory.
Life Areas & Expression
Relationships & Connection
Conversations lean toward candor, attraction has momentum, and requests come easier. A brave question or direct invitation can open a door, especially when paired with genuine listening.
Work & Purpose
Team efforts pick up speed, and negotiations benefit from clear proposals and swift follow-through. You’re more willing to take initiative while respecting roles, which turns potential competition into productive synergy.
Creativity & Expression
Co-creation thrives on shared heat—think jam sessions, brainstorming, or playful sparring that sharpens the work. Risk feels fruitful when you show your taste boldly and let others meet it with their own.

Use the surge of initiative to say what you want without making it a test. Let your yes and no be simple, and leave space for the other person’s truth to stand beside your own.
If you notice yourself speeding, slow enough to include the relationship. The win here is not getting your way; it’s feeling your will land cleanly in a field of mutual respect, where action can actually move forward together.
I bring my fire to the table and leave room for yours.
