Your desire to assert your autonomy and individuality will be enhanced or hindered, depending on how well you can work with existing structures, systems and traditions which provide your stable foundation.

Rather than trying for extreme changes, go for slow and subtle. Your best chances for success will come from learning to crawl before walking and running. So while this transit may bring attention to tedious matters, take advantage of this time and get organized. Cover details, take advantage of the patience brought out by this transit and don’t rush to the finish line.

You may become more self disciplined at this time and your efforts and perseverance will pay off in the long run. There is definitely a sense of right timing and anything you try to rush will simply not pan out, so better to slow down.

You are likely to enjoy the work you are doing, and even when challenges arise your optimism and confidence will not let you get discouraged.

Your plans and ambitions are in direct opposition to life circumstances or the needs of others at this time.

You would do well to step back, slow down and consider compromising. What you are more likely to do, however, is to dig in your heels and try to outmaneuver others to guarantee that you get your way.

This tactic is likely to cost you valuable personal and creative energy, and strain your relationships.

Consider that in the big picture there is some benefit to taking a path other than what you think is best at this time. Be open to opportunities that arise from listening to others, especially experts or elders in your family or career field.

Try not to take opposition to your plans and ideas as a personal attack.

This will require you to accept some of the limitations as they are and use your creativity and resourcefulness to transform stressful situations into opportunities.
