You’re going to have to find a way to play nicely with others as long as Mars is in Libra (August 27 to October 11). That’s because there’s no such thing as going it alone when the planet of gumption and drive is passing through the realm of Venus. Cooperation and collaboration are the means to your ends. This means that you will have to learn when to yield the field, to find a place where conflicting needs dovetail, and to share the credit with those who don’t deserve it. Politesse is an ill-fitting suit for the red tempered planet, but there’s no denying that this passage through Libra will improve your manners and your appeal. Signs most affected: Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn
