Weekly Horoscope

PLAY DEAD

Does anyone even know what they’re fighting about anymore? It’s a good question to ask when retrograde Mars squares Pluto on October 9. Your life may resemble one of those barroom brawls with cowboys slugging it out and tossing each other through windows while saloon girls pop up from behind the bar to smash a bottle over someone’s head. It’s complete and utter chaos so the best solution is to make your escape by crawling out on your hands and knees while you can. There’s no talking sense into anyone right now and you don’t want to do anything to provoke matters. People are equal parts furious and exhausted which means that if you give them enough space then the fatigue will set in. Meanwhile do what you can to be as boring as possible. You won’t attract attention and people will leave you alone. If the animal kingdom has taught us anything, it’s not the ferocious animal that wins, but the one that plays dead and lives to tell about it.
