Simmering (source: pexels.com)

I’m feeling good about myself lately. Quitting my full-time job was the right decision for me to make so that I could focus on being a happier person.

However, I still have a lot of anger simmering under the surface. I’m angry at people who just can’t stop making everyone else’s lives worse. I currently have Jupiter trine my ascendant: a transit that is supposed to make me see the best in everyone. But I also have a couple of progressed aspects that are making me uncharacteristically vengeful. I am not typically someone who wishes others the worst, but that’s where I am at the moment.

I didn’t see anything in my horoscope that would indicate a tendency toward vindictiveness. But when I took a good look at my progressed chart, I noticed a couple of things that could explain why these feelings are bubbling up inside me. I currently have progressed Mercury square my natal moon, and progressed Mars square my natal Mercury. Both of these progressed aspects have me rationalizing my antipathy towards my perceived enemies. Normally, I would try to build bridges between myself and those people who don’t share my point of view. Right now, I’d rather just tell them all to go fuck themselves.

This isn’t the greatest place for me to be mentally, but I’m not really a reactive person so I think I’ll be okay. I just hope that I can contain these feelings because there really isn’t a need for me to let them boil over. Over the next several weeks, I’ll have a procession of planets moving through my diplomatic seventh house, including Venus. Maybe that will make me feel indifference rather than hate. That would be a step in the right direction, right?

Don’t answer that . . .
