With Mars squaring Saturn, you'll probably be fighting an uphill battle this week but not without distraction. Whether this is good or bad is open for debate. We spent most of the summer pinned down under the Cardinal grand cross. The upside of that is that it forced people to focus. Some things snapped under pressure but other things improved.
