You may witness extremes in your contact with others. Sometimes you attract people who have a profound influence upon you, although not always in your best interests. What can draw you is the power that they seem to manifest. It can make for compelling encounters but may lack sustainable peace, as you tend to thrive now on intensity more than anything else. It is possible that you are the aggressor and draw those that you can dominate in some way. Issues over control can emerge now, which can threaten the basis for your involvement. A key to success in this cycle is the ability to compromise with respect to everyone?s needs.

Seeking pleasure may have you craving for more, if your objects lack substance. To achieve lasting fulfillment, this period often requires that you eliminate what is irrelevant or unsupportive of that. You may find this difficult to do, particularly when you are attached to what impedes satisfaction. To the extent that you are willing to look directly and unflinchingly at the way you relate to others, to things, and to yourself, you can make important strides in obtaining greater happiness. This period can strip away all that is inessential to the core values that you hold. In recognizing what is meaningful and what is not, you can build a better image that is based upon what is true rather than what you might want, or what you might want people to see.

Money issues may emerge during this interval. You often have strong desires, especially for beautiful or pleasing things, that compel you to spend. If you are low on resources, this may magnify the shortfall. Restructuring your finances now can ultimately lead to greater worth in the future. Agreements that you reach at this time can have profound effects. If you are obsessed with an outcome, you may go to great lengths to realize it. Your persistent efforts usually payoff since you can force other parties to meet you halfway or further. However, be aware of the significance of the commitments that you make now. Be certain that they meet your needs not merely in the present because their impact can last for a long time.
