Deeper Insights

This transit turns up the heat on wanting. Desire gets loud, and with it the urge to cut through delay and push forward. The square brings friction where your will and your growth edge rub against each other: a restless itch to do something, right now, colliding with the discomfort of stepping beyond old autopilots. You may find yourself quick to argue, bristle at limits, or feel oddly challenged by situations that normally roll past. The tension isn’t random; it highlights where your energy and your direction have been slightly out of sync.

Working with this energy means choosing a worthy arena for your fire. When you pause long enough to name the real aim, your actions stop scattering and start landing. Courage becomes cleaner: less about proving yourself, more about serving a path that actually fits. Conflict, then, can be used as a compass—showing where boundaries need clarity, where a habit needs upgrading, where fear is masquerading as certainty. Aim first, act second, and let the friction polish your commitment rather than fracture it.

Life Areas & Expression

Relationships & Connection

Chemistry, attraction, and disagreements may spike, asking for honest desire and clearer boundaries. Speaking up is essential, but the deeper invitation is to align action with the relationship you want to build, not just the feeling of the moment.

Work & Purpose

You may feel compelled to initiate projects, challenge norms, or push for advancement. Let ambition be guided by long-term direction so you choose meaningful battles rather than exhausting yourself in short-lived wins.

Body & Vitality

Energy rises, along with the temptation to overdo; the body becomes the first place to show misalignment. Move with intention, channel heat into steady effort, and let physical feedback refine your pace and priorities.

Growth & Integration

This is a season to respect the spark without letting it run the whole show. Give your urgency a task: naming what matters, choosing the next honest step, and allowing friction to teach you where to soften and where to stand firm.

What truly serves you will welcome your strength. When you align your will with your direction, even delays feel purposeful, and assertion becomes a form of care—for your path, your people, and yourself.

When I aim my fire, the road answers.
