” I want to support young girls who are in their 20s now and tell them: You’re not just imagining things. It’s tough. Everything that a guy says once, you have to say five times. Girls now are also faced with different problems. I’ve been guilty of one thing: After being the only girl in bands for 10 years, I learned — the hard way — that if I was going to get my ideas through, I was going to have to pretend that they — men — had the ideas. I became really good at this and I don’t even notice it myself. I don’t really have an ego. I’m not that bothered. I just want the whole thing to be good.”
— Bjork

Mercury pulls up to the Great Attractor today, suggesting the temptation to say things that are normally withheld may be greater than usual. This could be of use in stirring up a stagnant situation; but remember that things once uttered cannot then be unsaid. Consider carefully before making a determination.
