Mars Enters Aries
Mars - the God of war, ruling over our physical drive, passion, desires, and even anger - will enter into his place of power in Aries. Mars normally spends approximately 6 weeks in a sign, but this time around, Mars will be spending a whopping 6 months in its rulership.
Mars is a fierce warrior that stops at nothing to get what he wants. He is brave, courageous, determined, and very aggressive in his pursuits. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac bringing to life all kinds of wonderful dreams and desires. Whatever we were envisioning for ourselves while Mars was in Pisces will now come into fruition while Mars is in Aries.
Aries energy is fiery, and very much about identifying what one wants, what one needs, and what one desires. It’s on a constant path of egoic identity exploration. Because Mars is such a powerhouse of energy, we will be shocked and amazed of all we can accomplish under this energy.
Of course, each transit has both pros and cons. The pros of this energy is identifying a new path, revealing new desires, taking the lead on making things happen, fuelling new passions, and stopping at nothing to reach our goals. The cons however, could mean we burn ourselves out, we are self absorbed, we are highly irritable, we are too aggressive, we are all consuming, and we can throw tantrums at the drop of a hat.
This very long transit will play out on the global stage via rioting and protests, innovation and independence, passion and progress. Individually, the clarity of the new path in which you are desiring to follow will fully emerge and encourage you to be your bravest self to fight for what it is you want.
Aries and Scorpio placements will see the bulk of the energy as Mars is their ruler, but everyone has Mars positioned in their charts. Wherever you find Mars transiting through the houses of your chart, you will see a sudden shift of energy and progress moving forward.
Be forewarned, Mars will be making some serious aspects to some other major planets over the next 6 months, activating certain crisis points of tension within our lives. Chiron, Black Moon Lilith and Eris - already transiting through Aries - will be the first ones up to feel the fire of our new power.
Regardless of how Mars in Aries will manifest in your life, you are on the threshold of new beginnings, where new passion, drive, and excitement are about to be unleashed.
