Have Fun Playing with Power as Venus Opposes Mars


Feeling feisty this week? With lighthearted Venus opposing passionate Mars, your love life might seem like a battleground of sorts right now, and this pairing's undeniably ardent energy will only continue to build to a powerful crescendo this coming weekend!

But rather than polish your proverbial sword for a messy fight, why not use this antagonistic energy to hone your relationship skills? After all, diplomacy will get you what you want faster than if you throw any daggers.

As the planet of beauty, Venus tends to favor playful seduction over brute shows of strength. Venus is currently situated in Aries, the first and most demanding sign of the zodiac, and it's no secret that Aries doesn't like to wait for anything -- passion in particular!

On the other side of this titillating equation is Mars, the planet of desire. Mars represents pure, unadulterated energy -- a potent force of action. Since Mars is uncomfortably retrograde in polite, people-pleasing Libra at the moment, it's all set to explode into fiery filaments if it can't express itself as it wishes, and its retrograde (in effect until May 19) is slowing it down even more, making it feel weak and ineffectual.

When hyperkinetic Mars is thwarted in this way, jealousy and passive-aggressive outbursts aren't uncommon. So, if you or your partner, lover, or potential paramour find yourself triggered by something this week, simply imagine Mars and Venus in a sexy tango instead of a pitched battle. Consider stepping out of your usual role as you have fun playing with power, rather than willfully wielding it.
