IT’S ALL FUN AND GAMES UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT

There’s no denying that there’s a rambunctious quality to the Mars/Jupiter conjunction on August 14th. That’s because Jupiter is exuberant by nature and can’t help enlivening the energies of any planet it’s near. One becomes more daring, loud, and boisterous when Jupiter is next to Mars and given that they are both traveling through the zodiac sign of Gemini – baiting. This is all right as long as it’s all in the spirit of fun, but Mars, when aroused, has a tendency to take things too far. It’s not unlike a child in a classroom who – emboldened by a prank – tries to outdo himself. Whatever the joke, stunt, or escapade things look like they’ll get out of hand which will result in a slap down courtesy of the Mars/Saturn square on August 16th. How severe this will be all depends on taking responsibility. Come clean with what happened and you’ll get off with a light reprimand; pin the blame on somebody else and things will only get harder.
