Your Mercury & Mars when angry
What’s your Mercury & Mars and how do you express your anger? What are some unhealthy ways you’ve expressed it in the past and some healthy ways you’ve learned to cope better with it?
Leo/Gemini and I get very quick to anger. Sometimes when I’m angry, it feels like a steam engine going off. I become very passionate when I speak which sometimes can come off as dramatic to others, I guess.
My mind will compile a list of all my arguments and when I’m really pushed, I’ll rattle off that list like word vomit until I’m done. (Although this has only really happened once in life.)
Once I calm down, I think, “Maybe I should’ve phrased that better or not have said that.”
So I try not to let my anger get the better of me. I’ll try to think things through before I say them and try to communicate them as compassionately as I can.
Sometimes I’ll journal my feelings and then rip it up. Vent to a friend (if they’re open to it). Or I’ll go for a walk, drive, etc. anything that gets my body moving. I wish I owned a punching bag sometimes. 🤣
What about y’all?
