MARS IN GEMINI 20th August - 25th March 2023
Find the balance between expression and repression, words can wound too!
Mars is now in Gemini for 7 months, including a retrograde.
This is VERY long transit for Mars through one sign.
It will be intensifying the Gemini area of your chart.
Check the cusps to see what house Gemini is presiding over.
Notice what planets you have in mutable signs Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo and Pisces, as they are liable to get activated by this transit.
Mars is a planet of action, upheaval, power, anger. It can help you cut things out of your life.
Or give you the power and bravery to action something that’s well over due.
Mars is out of its comfort zone in Gemini, peregrine like a mouthy free range cowboy!
It’s hot, racy and sometimes erratic in Gemini where it can struggle to find its anchor.
So to use the Mars function you need to make sure you are grounded in your body and mind- before initiating anything.
Not anchored, Mars in Gemini leads to scattering of energy, tiredness, changeable perspectives, flying off the handle and backtracking or pie in the sky ideas that don’t birth real world outcomes.
Mars in Mercury’s sign (Gemini) suggests you could feel inclined to air your grievances after a period of repression.
It’s a delicate line between unspoken problems can festering and blurting out unabashed opinions or criticism.
So let any lids off slowly with caution.
Be clear and inject some heart into your conversations.
Gemini can be overly heady and rational, remember your interactions are with other humans too.
Mental gymnastics or debating is likely to add fuel to the fire.
Use this energy to be curious and adaptable to any troubles that arise.
Mars will retrograde in Gemini on the 30th of October, through to the 13th Jan. Pay attention, especially if it aspects your personal planets.
Mars retrograde is an inward journey, a time to reassess how and where you apply your energy.
Whether it is working for or against you.
Check your nervous system and mind for exhaustion or anxiety.
If your monkey mind is running you ragged, it’s a great time to start meditation or breath work.
Use problem solving to understand dynamics and be sure to find a healthy way to discharge this mental energy.
