Your strength could be tested by challenges that have the potential to be quite severe and dramatic. Control how you use your energy to avoid exhaustion by spending your time and effort on what you can’t change. If you’re too quick to prove to yourself what your strengths are you could deplete your resources that should be put to a better purpose. Persevering with a long term process of regenerating a few elements of yourself and your life may be a struggle if you start too much too soon. Also if there is anything that has been dragging on for quite a long time, you may drop all your involvement due to boredom.

There is a strong drive to expand the range of freedom you have to gain experiences that make life worth living. Great enthusiasm and confidence in a wide range of goals you would like to achieve can lead to successful results that can take you by surprise. Expressing elements of your beliefs, that are unconventional without backing down or being intimidated by those who consider themselves to have “traditional values” shouldn’t be challenging. Your own beliefs could be radically altered to make you a stronger person who has very little doubt in your identity.

The drive you have to obtain what makes your existence more pleasant and comfortable, by obtaining money and frivolous possessions are challenged by tough restrictions that demand a lot of hard work to eliminate. Patience, persistence and willpower should be used to do what needs to be done without creating a crisis or a drama. You can’t have everything you want but you can have a lot of it if you’re willing to fight for it without making compromises; although it’s not particularly diplomatic or considerate.

Financial opportunities from unusual sources could work in your favour if you have the courage to act on them. This may work at its best if you respond quickly with little hesitation, as such chances can suddenly leave with hardly any warning. Assertiveness to establish social contacts with a wide range of people who at least start off as acquaintances with the option of becoming friends should bring positive results. This transit is great for getting together with friends without feeling obligated to form close or long-lasting attachments.

Knowledge that is potentially ground breaking or can be put to use for ultra modern purposes can be learned very quickly. Perhaps not in much detail but enough to cover what’s important right now. Speaking your mind about or to those in authority or who are considered to be traditionalists could bring forth surprising results in a good way. Those who were thought of as being stuck in their conventional ways may be receptive to new and innovative ideas and methods. Those who were pioneers in the past are forthcoming in encouraging brave choices from those who want to be pioneers for the future.

A lack of consistency in the effectiveness of action taken during this transit is caused by procrastination and distraction. Directing your energy won’t be easy if frequent changes are made. Doubt and uncertainty can cause anxiety that may lead to some individuals questioning what they do. Alterations may be made, but they are unlikely to be clearly thought out. Circumstances that you would rather avoid may have to be confronted. You would prefer to deal with them at another time when you are in a stronger position, but unfortunately this is unlikely to be possible.

Lively social gatherings are particularly appealing if none of the participants takes themselves too seriously. New friendships could be formed with people who will be casual friends rather than those whom you would form close emotional bonds with. For those who have a sexual relationship, this transit is helpful for being assertive and putting what you discussed you want to put into practice. Immediate attention is paid to what is given and received by both people and what can be done straight away to do what is possible to accommodate each other’s needs.

There will be chances to clear any confusion or procrastination to improve mental control and willpower, which supports self-reliance. You will be able to gain more power and control over your life that transforms your way of thinking. It will only happen if you’re willing to do what is necessary by making a few sacrifices to allow dramatic changes to take place, that you know instinctively are right for you. Be prepared to dive into hidden depths of your mind to rid yourself of unnecessary mental inhibitions and self-doubt. Being mentally able to go with the flow eases any process of regeneration that you may be experiencing at the moment, where you will be less cautious about releasing what you have relied upon but no longer need.

Getting things done and playing on your strengths are emphasized during this transit. A strong element of self-discipline to direct your energy on what is most important to you can give you a chance to show your expertise through an unconventional route. There could be a sense of duty that demands assertive action to face events that haven’t been encountered before. Seeking the advice of an older person who has the wisdom of personal experience, or a person who has a substantial range of knowledge can help you to aim your life in the right direction.
