Disputes and a dangerously charged atmosphere are likely, but the storm will blow over if you remain cautious. Do not force things, friend; avoid immature head-banging. There still may be a simple solution at hand, since it is possible a slight misunderstanding is at the root of the present conflict. If you face an adversary who is much stronger than you are, drop the dispute quickly. If you are engaging an equal, now is the time to seek allies.
