Being short-tempered is de rigueur when Mars is traveling through Gemini. You know you're not the easiest person to live with nowadays, but you also can't help feeling like loved ones and friends are being oversensitive. It's like anything you say can and will be used against you, even an apology! An irascible energy, Mars thrives on friction and the heat of conflict so you can't win for trying. The best way to get through this period is to think before speaking, nod and smile in all the right places, and keep your sense of humor handy. Mars will be in Gemini through August 11th.
