ARIES & ARIES RISING

After seven months of unpacking how you express your needs with your words, Mars shifts focus to your domestic realm. Test your new communicative edge within your chosen family dynamics. You’re now equipped to address household tensions head-on. As ever, the compassion sandwich is your best approach, so couch your criticism with care. Call a co-inhabitant meeting and pass the popcorn around. Whatever stagnant air needs to be cleared at home: start there. For best results, don’t forget to flex your finely-honed active listening skills. And give your empathy muscles a workout too.
