Decisiveness. Mental assertiveness. Honesty. Practical solutions. Technical skills. Fast work, rapid progress.
Extra energy for speaking, and traveling quickly. Mars and Mercury are in mutual reception which helps to avoid the pitfalls of this influence. This is a good time to make quick decisions and write about finances, work, health related issues and/or mysteries. Writers may be flooded with sudden ideas and inspiration, be sure to keep a tape recorder handy to capture new ideas. This is also a positive time for dealing with machinery, metals, successful surgery, and strategizing for any competition or debates.
Wednesday, Dec 4 2013 - Mercury Enters Sagittarius
You seek knowledge to expand your world view. You are a born philosopher, enjoying any information which helps you see the big picture. For instance you may enjoy a religious debate. You place importance on freedom of speech and thought.
The planet of communication and processing information has left the intense and suspicious sign of Scorpio and is now bursting with optimism in Sagittarius! Now is the time to learn new things, travel, meet new people, or just expand your thinking and information in some way. This is not to say that it is all wonderful as Mercury is in detriment here so try to avoid doing too much when spreading the word out or taking on more classes than you can realistically accomplish. Mercury in Sagittarius can be very wise and appreciate the 'big picture' however there is also a danger of becoming overly exuberant with a new thought or belief and becoming overbearing or pompous with opinions.

02°Sg43' D 02°Pi43' D
Overstimulated imagination. Subtle perceptions. Right brain (intuitive) thinking. Confusion. Misperception. Deceit.
The news may be full of speculation, scandals and outright misrepresentations at this time. Some may say, "How is this different than any other time?" Well things could get even more confusing and convoluted than usual now. On a positive note, this is a wonderful time for creativity and spirituality. There is an enhanced sensitivity to what is being communicated now. Some may experience paranormal activities or perceive what is being said 'between the lines.' Be careful to avoid scams and dishonesty, if you are unsure of the veracity of a letter or story, withhold judgement until after this influence has passed. Also, be aware that your imagination may be more powerful and colorful now so be careful not to get too carried away with things in the real world. This is a dreamy aspect of escapism and art so enjoying a new movie, video game, concert, art exhibit, etc. could be most inspiring now.
Saturday, Dec 7 2013 Mars Enters Libra
You have a strong desire for diplomacy and justice, and a strong creative urge. You may become indecisive when opposed.
Mars has left the detail oriented and at times persnickety sign of Virgo for the sign of partnerships and competition - Libra. Mars will be in Libra for a good long time, from Dec 7th through July 25th 2014. Mars is more powerfully felt in this cardinal sign and may cause more verbal and written outbursts. Mars in detriment in Libra causes more projection when expressing it's energy and aggression. This could lead to sparring with partners or whoever you may deal with on equal terms. This would not be the best time to start any type of litigation or divorce as it could become nastier than usual. The key is too focus this dynamic power in positive ways. Mars in Libra which is ruled by Venus and Saturn by exaltation can be very productive. Working or constructing something significant in a partnership may result in more being accomplished now than ever before. Exercising together, redecorating, or constructing something beautiful/artistic could have outstanding results.
