Mars Retrograde - Transformation of the Warrior Energy
October 2, 2020
Mars is the warrior in our birth chart. It rules our ego, our physical expression, and our sexuality. One of our greatest soul lessons is to master our self will, and transmute it into Divine will. Depending upon the placement of Mars by sign, and its relationship to the other planets, will determine the level of challenges and support you have to access its amazing power.
In Western Sidereal Astrology, we calculate the charts according to the way it was originally done in Babylon, much like the Vedic, or Eastern Sidereal Astrologers do. However, we include the transformational planets of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto in our interpretations to support the paradigm shift occurring on so many levels.
From Sept. 9 - Oct. 1, Mars moved into a retrograde motion in the fire sign of Aries. Mars wants to be in action now, get things accomplished, and do it according to each person’s will. However, when Mars goes retrograde, things may be delayed or prevented from happening according to our timelines.
This often creates feelings of anger, frustration, and conflict which are then are projected onto others. Accidents may occur if people are careless or distracted when driving or using other machines. We can all see how much more volatile things have become since Sept. 9.
On October 2, Mars moved back into the water sign of Pisces, creating a sense of emotional upheaval and uncertainty for many people. It’s important for us to recognize that this transformation from the 3rd dimension of fear, anger, and resentment towards those in authority, is a lesson we agreed to learn as souls during this period of our lives.
Now it's time for us to awaken, and remember that we have incarnated to be kind, loving, and compassionate human beings. We need to release our attachment to behaving as unconscious human doings. Unconditional love is not condoning violence and hatred. It is embracing our humanity and helping those who are struggling to find joy and hope during these challenging times.
Are we willing to own our feelings of anger, fear, and resentment from past experiences, so we can stay present to the ever-changing landscape in our global community each moment? Then we can transform this negativity through a prayer for peace, a smile at a stranger, or a warm embrace for someone who is struggling.
Pluto in the fire sign of Sagittarius, is making a square to Mars in the water sign of Pisces, until Oct. 24 and things are heating up, just like the kettle boiling on the stove. It’s a great opportunity to redirect the energy into activities like martial arts, dance, drumming, yoga, exercise, and water sports.
We’re being asked to release the old limiting beliefs and behaviors from our childhood that we used to protect ourselves from being abandoned or harmed. What if we paused, took a deep breath, and stayed open to a more loving response instead?
Then we can all experience the joy as life flows more easily in our lives. Water energy is fluid, intuitive, and extremely powerful when used in harmony with the strong fire energy.
This is an amazing time to be alive in the history of planet earth. Let’s stay connected to our Divine source, and maintain a heart of gratitude. Then we can surf the wild waves together and welcome an exciting new chapter as we complete the last 3 months of 2020, and prepare for 2021.
