Dear Deirdre,

Thank you for your blog. I enjoy reading about charts! Now here is what I'm curious about:

I am wondering if there is any special thing I can be aware of, considering that Venus and Mars were both in Aries at the time of my birth. My sun sign is Pisces and over the past year and a bit, I've have formed four new friendships with Aries men. Three of these friendships have a really exciting quality about them, and especially two have a child-like innocence and magical feeling. And one of them, is extremely volatile. It's driving me slightly mad, but of course, everything's good I'm learning a lot in the process and feeling an intense drive to grow and grow and grow. So I wondered, realizing yesterday upon looking at my birth chart, that I had Venus and Mars in Aries, if you had any advice on how I can make the best of this volatility. I don't want a crazy emotional rollercoaster or drama. I want to find peace within the fire....does this make sense?

Thanks so much, I hope all is well with you.

P.S. I feel a little scared to send this and I also feel sort of embarrassed that I'm scared. Anyway, love to you. e
