August 14
Mercury sextile Mars
This is an excellent energy for negotiating because you’ll be able to organize facts and prioritize them in such a way as to make a compelling case. Moreover you have a very strong sense of what the other party wants which means that you can anticipate their every question, reservation, and request. Usually the Mars energy would push for what it wants, but when it forms a sextile to the much more playful Mercury, you’ll be able to enter into a volley of sorts where you bat ideas and numbers back and forth until you come up with something that will make both sides happy. And that makes for the best negotiation of all. Signs most affected: Aries, Gemini, Leo, Virgo, and Libra
