CURSING AND PRAYING Daily Astrology Thurs 29th Oct Mercury square Mars. This one is a bit tricky. Mars is moving forward in Leo, fitted out in splendid battle armour. Mercury is retrograde in Scorpio, wanting to look inwards to the unacknowledged depths. They want different things, and the pressure will build over the next few days. You could find yourself cursing and swearing, or throwing things across the room. There is a solid finding that people who swear are more emotionally healthy than those who don't. But not if they do it all the time. So choose your moment, be aware and give it your darkest all! The fierceness of Mars meets the savage transgressiveness of Scorpio. It is also a good day for prayer. Looking inwards (Mercury retro) to see what's in your heart (Leo) and asking the universe - or Jupiter - to grant it. Fire (Leo) meets Water (Scorpio). Between them they produce hot steam, which in the Native American sweatlodge both heals and carries your prayers up into the universe. But prayers only work if you know what you want. We're not always ready to know what we want - who to be with, where to live. It may take years. The next few days are a time for probing yourself, asking yourself what it is you really want. And that brings you closer to who you are, and what else are we here to do but know who we are? Tip: be animal, lion meets scorpion. Animals know who they are. The animal that is your body always knows what it wants and what to do.
