Today Mars moves into Virgo for about 6 weeks which is huge this time, as Mars took sooo long to leave Leo having first entered way back in Nov but then he went backwards- then out of bounds which was a crazy time in January through to the beginning of April, forwards again from 23rd Feb and then back to Leo 17th April.
Both Cancerians and Leo types had to put things off for a while during that time as did many of us.
Then from April it was Full on for Leos and Leo ascending signs.
Now we are at the next stage of the year with these Virgo energies coming in so this is no longer about ego achievement and re-establishing our own personal sovereignty, but more about methodical strategy, analysis, safety and care. This would be especially so on global levels at this point in time insofar as the current world situation is concerned.
Its about “putting our money where our mouth is”, the first thing that came to mind. But with caution and care and strategies.
But for we individuals Mars is about “self” and Virgo is about care, caution and responsibility too.
Globally Mars is about armies and war just now, leading the way so the strategies of war are being considered. There should be a changing dynamic from today in that regard with more people involved , not just strong egos which I s r a e l s leader seem to have and we do know t r u m p has that too, so the reflection will not be lost only trump at least wants peace talks – his expertise is money but he has a knowledge of war strategies also. However he desperately wants to stop wars in the world and get on with promoting a healthier environment world wide, so each country can deal with their own culture and economy without war getting in the way of prosperity – the Leo word.
I’m not sure I like Mars in Virgo much as it can bring out too much analysing, overthinking, criticism, but at least it brings action in the right places mostly due to a certain caution.
"Be sure you are right then go ahead "
Its allowing us to put plans into action after doing the research!
Arians will be very much this way, able to finally get to the nitty gritty of everything, the paper work – the red tape if needed, the practical stuff.
Virgos will be busy, having to step up and take charge, with courage. The ball is well into their court now so they can call the shots if they want to and lead the way .
Virgos make excellent leaders in fact and is a very strong sign I have found in my lifetime having a Virgo father who made his mark on the world.
Pisces have Mars opposite to their sign which is a similar effect to Virgo, and perhaps it will make us stronger and bring out our leadership too , it will depend on the relationship of Mars to our Sun in our birth charts. Mine is a trine so that’s a good thing so I am not too worried about it.
I need the vitality and energy that Mars can bring and soon he will oppose my Sun, just as I leave to on a big road trip. In my case Virgo is nearing my Virgo midheaven so he will have a strong influence on me.
I’m pleased Saturn is now out of my sign and Jupiter supporting me in the months ahead. Jupiter will help keep Mars reined in.
So its time to make certain things manifest basically – plans, dreams and goals. Take care of the fine print – make or study the plans, analyse, strategise and then go ahead.
Some will want to wait until the next new Moon Id say which is not too far away now.
Same with health, time for the checks and the following treatment . A lot of you will be tending to health matters you have put off.
Mars is the surgeon in Virgo as it happens!
This move happens while the Moon is in Pisces so its quite a smooth transition even though we will feel the switch of energy.
For a part of today the Moon and Mars will be opposite so that could bring a little angst for some but then smooth sailing.
Coming up in two days is Jupiter squaring Neptune, Cancer to Aries and this is always a spiritual aspect to me that stretches our thinking in a multidimensional way.
However globally it could be an incident at sea that we will hear about. The Moon will be in Aries so that may be something to do with the wars escalating with more countries taking part.
I know for tr u mp very much a Mars person this is a next stage he would have thought very carefully about.
But I hope it’s a sign of a truce even if a shaky one at that time.
To bring a lighter note I thought I would mention Virgo rules our little animal friends, even some not to little, as well as birds speaking of which Asbolus will be around for a while yet.
We may see some unusual behaviour from our pets, cats especially or in nature around us, even some telepathic communication or simply mad dashing around as happened to me this morning as I am looking after my landlords cats. One of them had done some crazy cat zooming, knocking a pot plant down into the sink from a shelf in an impossible to get to place, complicating my morning.
This is exactly what one would expect with Mars now in Virgo.
So we could have restless very critical, fussy cats around to contend with other or other animals that you know .
Critical, fussy people too including ourselves!
The Sun will soon enter Cancer which I will leave for another article as Asbolus needs another mention at that time adding to the mystery and intrigue, and in a more positive light waking us up to reality in very new ways as more lights switch on in our collective neurological circuits.
