DON’T GET GASLIGHTED
Do you know what gaslighting is? It’s when someone is messing with you. It begins with sowing seeds of doubt about conversations you never had and promises you never made and gradually escalates into the other party accusing you of making things up in your head. Suddenly it’s not him who’s cheating, but your suspicious nature that’s taken over. Or maybe it’s not your boss who was misleading but your eagerness to please that led you to say yes to more work for no pay. These sorts of mind games are nothing new when the Sun and Mercury square Neptune (June 6). The hard part will be in breaking ties with someone you thought was in your corner. The truth is he never was. And that will probably be the most painful realization of all.
