You may be intensely driven to express your opinions today. Your beliefs and convictions may matter more to you than usual, and you may feel a strong need to share your ideas with others. Your stirred mind and passions, however, could lead you to be too forceful when communicating with others today. As a result, others may shy away from you or reject your thoughts. You could avoid this by expressing yourself calmly and dispassionately when exchanging ideas with others. The people you converse with will likely find more truth and substance in your thoughts when they are given an opportunity to consider them without having to feel obliged to. Listening as others express their own opinions may inspire them to listen more attentively to yours.

Expressing your ideas gently and personably, even when you feel strongly about a topic, will make others more willing to explore or accept your point of view. It's easy to become headstrong and domineering when we encounter people whose opinions differ from ours. But maintaining an evenness of attitude and a willingness to listen to others will likely inspire anyone you debate with to do the same. Your good-natured and rational expression of ideas will give others an opportunity to take in what you have to say without the distraction of intense emotions on either side. Whether or not you come to an agreement, peaceful relations are maintained. Expressing yourself evenly and calmly today will help those you converse with be more accepting of your opinions.
