Mars has been at home in Aries for 6th months because its retrograde timeline is about every two years (this means Mars will be direct until late October 2022). Mars represents our drive and anger, and its stay-cation in Aries made some of us feel cagey, impulsive and make rash decisions—like trying to open schools and businesses without a game plan.

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.

Mars conjunct Saturn in Aquarius. When these two heavy planets come together the possible anger of the Martian energy and Saturn’s unyielding need to maintain the status quo can create a powerful blow up.
