MARS - the planet symbolizing raw energy and the urge to get what you want and includes the drive - be it sexual drive, initiative or courage -brought the New Year in with a bang as it began its transit through the fiery, dynamic sign of Aries Monday, December 31st, at 9:20 PM EST ... Mars has come home to the sign it naturally rules and operates extremely efficiently, for good or for challenging, as it is considered to be in dignity in Aries .. it has the greatest potential to be very constructive or extremely destructive when infused with the energy of Aries depending on how the energy is used ... This Mars takes no prisoners !!! ... Mars was last in Aries from January 28th through March 9th, 2017 - can you remember taking any action or initiative regarding something in your life, being very aggressive either in a good way or a challenging way to others, or having to stand your ground for some reason during that period ??? ... Mars takes approximately 2 years to journey around the zodiac !!!
Mars in Aries needs to be physically active and tends to be naturally assertive ... it is direct, forceful, and highly competitive ... self-expression is very important here as is the need to do your own thing ... should ones free self-expression be blocked there is the risk of repression - which could lead to some form of illness, projection - which can lead to confronting aggression in others, or displacement - which could lead to fighting with team members ... finding areas where one can be spontaneous is important ... there could be a flair for starting things - which sometimes are not finished after they lose their initial novelty !!! - or there could be mechanical skills !!!
Mars in Aries produces energy that is very good for facing obstacles as well as producing confrontation, and consequently there may be a need to control being too rash or impatient ... one best functions with a lot of freedom, variety, and a chance to be a pioneer ... with this energy comes great restlessness, being willful and a high degree of initiative, sexual drive and physical energy ... sometimes sexual matters may be handled very impulsively ... identity is usually tied to independence and spontaneity ... it has been said that anger and self-assertion are at their most honest here ... this Mars gets mad, gets it out and gets over it !!!
Mars in Aries teaches us that we get the most effective results through active doing ... there is usually a reliable but uncontainable supply of raw energy which must have an outlet and ultimately a direction ... here we have a no-nonsense approach to things ... sometimes it may become necessary to stop and ask oneself "What am I actually after?" ... there is definitely a lot of get-up-and-go as well as ones share of hard knocks ... courage and initiative are usually at the top of the priority list, but love and patience are frequently missing ... one can rather easily spark enthusiasm in others with this energy !!!
Mars in Aries is very much the "warrior" or "Amazon" ... the best expression of this Martian energy is that of the untiring champion of the underdog using both word and deeds to help promote your cause ... showing people what you can do rather than what they should do can set an inspiring and uplifting example ... the energy of Mars in Aries can be expressed in the following ways:
POSITIVE: self-assured, self-willed, independent, survivor, bold, energetic, fighter, fearless, direct, brisk, championing, outspoken, daring, dashing, exhilarating, spirited, leader-type, strong stamina, enthusiastic, self-starting
NEGATIVE: inner doubt, egocentric, uncooperative, selfish, aggressive, pushy, militant, violent, unsubtle, intolerant, quarrelsome, foolhardy, exhausting, ostentatious, bullying, insensitive, insatiable, self-defeating, anger ridden
With Mars in Aries, it benefits one to direct their energies into a worthwhile cause rather than bullying and badgering others ... knowing who and what you are dependent on not only emancipates but supports you !!!
Aries born individuals this is roughly a six week period for you to be infused with an extra boost of energy even though you probably have more than enough energy to get you through naturally - you could become a force to be reckoned with !!! ... use it constructively and not destructively ... we all will be infused with extra energy especially to make new starts !!!
Mars now joins Uranus - what a dynamic and potentially hazardous duo !!! - already in transit through the sign of Aries per retrograde motion ... they will meet up in conjunction, one going forward and one retrograde, between the 11th and the 14th of February so lookout !!!
Mars remains in Aries until February 14th ... and then all of that aggressive energy will shift into Taurus which could make Valentines day quite interesting !!! ... for those of you wondering, Mars will not go retrograde this year !!! ... in fact Mercury is the only personal planet - Mercury, Venus, Mars - taking retrograde journeys this year !!!
As Mars begins its transit through Aries, it's time to start making plans for new beginnings - especially appropriate as we usher in a New Year - and actions by taking charge of and beginning to change something in your life that will result in positive personal and spiritual growth ... hopefully this will ultimately enable you, somewhere in your life, to step up and become "the leader of the pack" !!!
