Behind the ScenesWith Mars in Virgo and your solar twelfth house for the month, take it slowly and carefully. Don't push the pace on projects or try too hard to advance things. Go over old ground and make sure you got it right in the first place. Watch for opposition from hidden sources, or traps you didn't anticipate.
