Mars in Libra opposes Chiron in Aries at 1:06pm PDT. Mars rules Aries, so we may feel especially judged now for what we struggle to achieve, and experience a lot of frustration when we can’t live up to social expectations. There is a risk of impulsiveness causing injury with this transit and those of us prone to inflammation may experience flares now, and should pace ourselves accordingly. 

This opposition is mediated by yesterday’s Venus/Chiron trine, and Venus rules Libra, so Mars needs to answer to our kinder natures despite the friction this transit is associated with.  So far it appears that Venus/Chiron trine is our spirit of commiseration in this situation, while that Mars/Chiron opposition seems hellbent on giving us something to commiserate about, and today’s Moon/Pluto conjunction just one minute prior isn’t likely to help our moods much.  Thankfully Mars transits are typically quick to taper off after the time of the exact transit, so hang in there and the surliness will give way to something kinder soon!
