When it comes to creation, you should first make a draft and then slowly polish it: start writing as soon as the inspiration comes, and only deal with the details when you go back; if you keep the idea in mind, it will make you less motivated. When you are in love, your overtures are full of gunpowder: the person you want to pursue will directly ask and talk to you directly, and you can’t hide it in front of anyone; if the ambiguity period is too long, you will lose patience first. For fun, you prefer games with a winner: ball games, racing games, impromptu challenges. Even if you lose, you want to play again immediately.

Common Misreadings

“Aries in the fifth house plays with the heat for three minutes and can’t hold on to anything.” - Rushing too fast and not being able to hold on are two different things. What you lack is the follow-up arrangement for the first wave of impulse, not the lack of enthusiasm. Another misunderstanding is to misinterpret competition as being a sore loser: the way you enter the game is to compete for position, compete with yourself, and tell the rules well. Competition will make the game more immersive. Some people think that love must start in a flash and end in a mess. What really depends on the follow-up of the placement of Mars is the follow-up. The speed of the start is not determined by the cusp alone.
