Midheaven in Aries

Storm chasers read a thunderhead two counties off by the color of its underbelly, and the strange thing is they drive toward it. You were born with your Midheaven in Aries, and that is roughly how the world meets you: you walk into a room a half-step ahead of your own introduction, your hand already reaching for the thing that needs doing. The last few times you really committed to something, the room knew it from the change in the air, not from any announcement you made. Mars lights your public face here, which is why your work tends to place you the moment you stop waiting for the invitation to tables your effort already belongs at. You move first, and somewhere in the moving you learn where you were headed. The speed of your start is good; that was never the problem. What snags you is the reflex, when a project jams, to throw your whole body at it again, when what it wanted was for you to turn your head half a second and check whether the direction is still yours. Pausing to study the lock does not betray how you work. It sharpens it. Keep opening doors. Just look, one time in three, whether the first room you charge into is one you actually want to be read in for a long while.
