It's 5:30 am. I'm writing this on the fly.
I think I underestimated the full moon in Libra on Sunday. There is so much tension out there, you can cut it with a (Aries) knife.
I think this is because Mars is squaring Mercury and Saturn is squaring Uranus. I wouldn't go as far as to call this a "perfect storm" but this trio of stresses is going to come to something.
I think the best thing to do is to set your expectations on "choppy". An analogy, last night we had a tornado watch for a number of hours. It was not necessary to hide in the basement, but it situation affects us even if doesn't. You've got to think. Let the dogs out when there is a lull in the storm. Print charts for consultations ahead of time in case the power goes out.
When I met my husband he was a missileer. Every two and days, he'd go to work, underground, manning the missile. During these periods, he was "on alert". That's what it was called.
