The Mars retrograde is a cycle where we are forced to reassess our current ideas, approach, projects, and our desire. Mars is going to be retrograde in the sign of Aquarius from June 26 to August 12 and in the sign of Capricorn from August 12-27. As a whole, the effect of Mars retrograde will be felt on the various sun signs from June 26 to August 27.
Mars is an active and volatile energy when it’s direct, so we are straightforward, aggressive and assertive. But when it is in retrograde, we tend to become more hesitant about our actions and we seem to be second-guessing our instincts.
Says Ashtar Tashi, spiritual guide and psychic, “Sexual feelings will be more intense. The outward expression of sexuality may be more spontaneous than usual.” So if you are getting into a new relationship, be careful.
You might also feel more anxious than usual this period, which is normal. Do not panic if a new project, interview or relationship happens during this retrograde period of Mars. Develop a wait-and-see kind of attitude and take things slower rather than jumping head-on.
Ashtar also warns that during this period, anger and road rage will be a problem. When we can’t express ourselves, we might become more aggressive and have a higher incidence of accidents. Make sure you don’t let go of yourself at any point. So, how are you going to handle situations this period?
