Today's Words to the Wise

The Moon is now charging through impatient, adventurous Sag.

Mars, meanwhile, is currently trudging through meticulous, deliberate Virgo.

The above sets up the Moon and Mars for an exact clash (crash?).

That clash / crash takes place at 6:21 pm EDT (GMT - 4 hours).

Two Traps: If and Whenever Circumstances Hamper You 

Circumstances may (and I repeat “may”) hamper you between now and 6:21 p.m. tonight (per the above).

Between now and then, as you try to complete a task, achieve an objective, etc., you may run into obstacles.

If you do run into any obstacles, then don't let it get you down or "sink your battleship."

By the same token, don't keep "firing away," sticking to your guns. Don’t keep insisting on getting exactly what you want, when you want, where you want, how you want.

Instead, open yourself up enough to truly consider making some sort of change in your tactics.

Here’s one General Tip For How to Thrive Today… 

If only for laughs and giggles, try this:

Instead of falling into either of the two traps described above, keep your eyes on the prize.

Keep your focus on what it is that you’re ultimately trying to accomplish.

(Aim to do this rather than focusing your attention on how you accomplish it). 

Dare to try something new.

...and (Oh, Yeah) Here's the Nitty-Gritty about How to Live Life Large Today…

Ask yourself questions, such as the following:

• “How could I work around this mildly annoying (if not outright infuriating) barrier that currently blocks my way?"
• "Might it help me keep from popping a blood vessel to change gears and go do something else for a while?”
• “Who knows? Maybe if I do that, some sort of “Eureka!” moment will get me up and dashing out of my ‘bathtub’ and back to this scene of the ‘crime’ that I’ve been ‘suffering’ here, just now.”
• “I mean, really… Doing that could only be better than hangin’ here and beating my head against a wall.”     

By the way, please note this….

Caution: Your Earthly Experiential Mileage (EEM) May Vary

In other words, yes, the Moon and Mars are squaring off about 10 hours from now.

And perhaps I am your favorite oh-so-wise ;-) local astrologer.

Even so, nothing sez that you’ll necessarily run into any frustration or fury whatsoever, within yourself / without yourself.

You might run into such frustration, or fury, or both…

… and you might not.

  But If You Do Run Into Some Such Peskiness... 

If you run into such peskiness, while you’re out and about, roamin’ round Planet Earth today...

... then consider my writing here to be words to The Wise. 

O Wise One... 

... May you live in excitingly challenging (and, of course, interesting) times today. ;-)
