Happy Friday the 13th! It's a day to celebrate the Goddess, Freya, and the wonders of creation. Today also happens to be the day that Mars goes direct after a two month retrograde in Aries. Venus is also in Libra, opposing Mars. It’s a day when the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine can come together to find balance. Also, when I say Divine Feminine or Divine Masculine, that doesn’t mean gender, cuz we all have both energies.

The red warrior planet—Mars, has returned home from its frustratingly cold time in Pisces. It’s journey through that watery and emotional sign may be the reason Mars will be spending an extra amount of time at home (7 months! as opposed to 6-8 weeks) to dry out and get fired up. In bold Aries, Mars rules!!! —and he can be his fiery self, powerful and focused.

Aries is considered the first sign of the Western Zodiac.

Today is the end of Aquarius season and so to give it a weird and proper goodbye, I wanted to look at how each sign expresses itself in the 11th house, the house ruled by Aquarius. But first an explanation of how this chart thing works…
