Mars Square or Opposite Saturn
© 2004 Curtis Manwaring
Transiting Mars square or opposite your natal Saturn. You may have to confront your fears now more than usual as you are prone to hesitate when some type of action is required. Feelings of inadequacy and lack of self confidence is typical now. You feel inhibited and unable to express yourself or take action that positively furthers your goals, so often this is a time when you are blocked in getting ahead. The result of this is that you feel impotent, unable to confront and helpless. It is best to work on projects alone and minimize your contact with enemies as much as possible.
