Week Ahead Part 2: You feel weighed down by the sheer intensity of an emotional burden. This partly explains your overwhelming desire to get away. You want to escape, to travel, to experience something new or - failing all that - to explore some totally different territory in your mind. You are tired of looking at the same set of circumstances in the same old way. You yearn for a fresh perspective. Failing that, you at least want to have power over a situation that currently seems beyond your every effort to influence it. Mars may just have left your sign - but Mercury remains in Scorpio, granting you a sense of freedom and a very real opportunity to work the kind of magic that once seemed like a distant dream.
