So basically, the astrology looks kind of tough with Mercury in Cancer and Jupiter in Capricorn squaring Mars in Aries. Some of these themes I'm about to list already popped off for y'all, but I'm here to help you cope! Don't yell at me for being late.

This is prime swing on somebody energy once they say or do something you don't like. This is the type of energy causes people to fall out with each other over emotional, heated arguments. This is the type of energy that makes brake check someone to be obnoxious.

So I got a few suggestions because with Mars in Aries squaring Jupiter, you're not on the edge, you already jumped. Mercury in Cancer just makes it that much emotionally charged in how you process it. This is a terrible T-Square, especially for Cardinal people.

Mercury in Cancer is responding to the Moon, so last week, you probably felt the tension, it was hard to keep your cool. It will get even crazier once the Moon transits Capricorn tomorrow and hits Mars, Jupiter, Pluto and Saturn all retrograde in the days following.

How I would define the Mercury in Cancer square Mars in Aries transit by itself is how words can be emotionally damaging. If you got into it with someone, trust me, you are going to remember not just what was said, but how it made you feel.

Mercury square Mars cuts in any signs, Mars square Jupiter is just notoriously reckless, not just that, Jupiter is in fall in Capricorn in opposition to Mercury, so basically, limited perspective is a theme here and it's very unhappy.

To make a longer thread shorter—

LAVENDER: ruled by Mercury, soothes you and eases anxiety and overthinking, encourages clarity, will emotionally deescalate you with Mercury in Cancer. Definitely make use of it as Mercury hits Pluto, then Saturn before it leaves on August 4th.

EUCALYPTUS: ruled by the Moon, some say Mercury, encourages meditation, stillness, is not necessarily sedating like LAVENDER (to me, it is), but calms just as LAVENDER does, encourages solution-based thinking, wards off gross energy, people with this in their showers are WINNING.

CLARY SAGE: ruled by the Moon and Mercury, great for mediums and psychics if you have felt intuitively blocked, helps with stress, and even said to be is great for getting into 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 mood. With its properties of the Moon and Mercury, may help you emotionally process.

CHAMOMILE: ruled by the Sun and it's Leo Season. Chamomile is famous for bringing about peaceful sleeps, so it's a perfect tea to drink as the sun sets. Even though Chamomile is sedating, may be great for conscious (Sun) meditation if it does not sedate you or to relax and chill.

BAY LAUREL: ruled by the Sun, again, it's Leo Season. Infamous for wishing, but one of my favorite ways to use Bay leaves is to cleanse and ward off bad vibes and introduce good vibes, also great for psychics prior to channelling

ROSEMARY: ruled by the Sun, can be used in place of anything, highly cleansing, not to be slept on for the way it will illuminate, as Sun and Moon herbs do, but have you ever worked with Rosemary and felt sad after? That's what I thought, the goat, don't sleep

Normally, I wouldn't advise working with Mars herbs while Mars is in Aries, but a craving is a craving

GINGER: ruled by Mars, I had on and off cravings for ginger drinks since Mars ingressed into Aries. If you need to get moving, this is the Mars herb you need during Mars in Aries. Energizing and confidence-inducing while making you conscious of your actions... this is the one

CINNAMON: ruled by the Sun and Mars, to me, Cinnamon is more than a herb to attract money to me, but to really get motivated in preparation for something, it is also an intense aphrodisiac for men (Skin—Mac Miller), amazing for cleansing with the added empowerment and psychics

So remember that when you're dealing with these herbs in whatever form to be aware of pregnant women and pets and even allergies, do NOT apply undiluted essential oil to your skin as people forget to say that.

These are just a few of my faves, some responsible for keeping me sane during this time, I hope I could help you and that like me, you already have some of this laying around that you forgot about and can utilize for yourself somehow!

Feel free to use these suggestions after Mercury leaves Cancer... because that Mars/Saturn/Pluto square is just...

Idk and if you wanna tip for the info and regarding the planetary astrology, it's appreciated, stay calm, though
