It is important to keep yourself moving during this time period since you tend to experience greater restlessness than usual. While this can mean a change in your living situation, it usually implies exercise of some kind. Whether engaged in strenuous athletic competition or taking a daily walk in the park you likely benefit from physical activity, particularly if stress has a hold on you now. If you play sports, this can indicate success in achieving goals whether at a beginning or advanced level.

The primary hazard of this interval is to overdo it. You can take on too much and easily become overcommitted if you are confused or lack purpose. Physical exhaustion can follow. However, you have an opportunity to move ahead in certain areas of your life. You can progress rapidly in fulfilling your desires, as doors tend to open up for you, especially if you have a clear idea of your direction. Wherever you need to stand up and assert yourself, you likely have the confidence now to take the necessary steps. Risk is a feature of this period, and if you have a good idea or plan, you usually get rewarded for the chances you take.

This is an excellent time to step outside your normal boundaries or to expand them by venturing into new territory. Travel is a good choice to broaden your horizons but anything that makes you consider your life in a larger context will do, even reading a good book can produce the effect. However, you generally develop the furthest by being exceptionally dynamic. As human beings we tend to prefer established routines to new ones, and we often resist change even if it is obvious, at least to others, that it is in our best interest. You now have an occasion to move past set limits with relative ease. Enjoy the freedom that this period can bring and the new experiences that are waiting for you if you seek them.
