Expect a Change of Momentum/Direction This Week


Hello Everyone,
You might notice a distinct change in the momentum of your projects or even the direction of your life as Mars goes Retrograde from this Monday through April 13th.  Be prepared to retrace some of your recent steps. Mars Retro often calls us to “re-do” what we think we have already accomplished.

If it seems you need to renegotiate deals, re-think strategies, or even reevaluate alliances, go ahead and do so. It’s a perfect time to insure that what you are doing - and who you are doing it with - are genuinely working for you.

Matters will unfold in quirky, start-stop ways through April.  Delays, reversals and weird shifts are likely. But so are new, clever, healthier opportunities and solutions.  So be super flexible and patient.  Rather than muscling or pushing matters through, you might be more successful by employing a “give and take” finesse.

That’s because many of us are discovering a whole new way of directing our motivations and desires.  Mars retrograde helps all of us connect with what deeply drives us, rather than what we think we should do.

Successful accomplishment of our ambitions and desires is still likely over the coming months.  But we’ll be even more effective after mid- April.  That’s when projects, plans, relationships etc. can move ahead unhindered.  2012 has some terrific aspects for growth.  We do have to be wise about it.  And that’s what we are sorting out right now: What wise growth is for us - individually and as a human race.

Mars is retrograde in the sign of Virgo. This shines a spotlight on matters of work and health.  You can use Mars Retro advantageously by asking , “ Am I going about my work and health routines in a way that genuinely serves me?”

Here is where your Sun sign/Rising Sign might experience Mars Retrograde’s Change of Direction/Motivation between now and Mid-April:

Aries: Your work, employees and/or health routines might call for review, re-direction, or simply more problem solving over the coming 3 months.  Ask yourself, “What is the healthiest, most efficient, yet supportive way I could approach my work, co-workers and health?

Taurus: Your Love Life, Children and Creative Expression can be quite feisty over the coming 3 months.  But they may also bring you heightened demands, irritabilities or changes in direction. You have a lot going for you. Look for efficient, yet tender ways to bring greater healing and satisfaction to how you express your love and creativity.

Gemini:  Your Home and Family matters can be quite active. But reversals, irritants, or sudden changes in plans might disrupt your domestic serenity over the coming 3 months.  Keep looking for ways you can approach your home and family matters with a healing, service-oriented intention. 

Cancer: You have a lot to communicate and decide over the coming 3 months.  You might travel more too, including for work.  But you may find some contracts or deals get disrupted. Prepare to renegotiate and/or re-express what you want.  Do this with courage, before you get angry. Doing so will help you clarify what is right for you, what you do want to express, and strengthen your ability to let others know what you really think, know and want.

Leo: Your Money Matters can be exceptionally active now. This is a terrific time to evaluate your financial strategies to make sure they really do work for you.  Put something aside for unexpected expenses over the coming 3 months.  Use Mars Retro not only to take stock of how you are spending your money, but to evaluate if there are more satisfying or healthier ways you could make your money.

Virgo:  Wow! Mars Retrograde in your own sign of Virgo can heighten your assertiveness and sex appeal and basically make you more confident of who you are and what you have to offer. Your work can become more important now. But Mars Retro can also stir up challenges.  Stay alert to possible course-corrections, including in how you express your power. Mars is about courage and assertion and valor.  Are you expressing these qualities in your work and personal life?  Are you allowing yourself to cultivate your gifts and grow?  Use Mars Retro through mid-April to identify and cultivate what really excites and brings meaning to you.  Then, from the spring of 2012 on let yourself “play a bigger game.”

Libra:   This Mars Retrograde through April 14th urges you to retreat in some healing way. Inner Focus or meditation or rewarding service is highly recommended now.  Perhaps it’s time to complete a long-term work project.  It is also time to heal things that have bugged you from the past.  Your dreams and intuition can be stronger now.  Use them. Your ability to forgive is stronger now too. Use it. You are clearing the way for a whole new cycle.

Scorpio: Your friendships and social groups are certainly energized now! And your work might even involve being around more people than usual. But don’t take things for granted as Mars Retro might prompt some changes in alliances, directions or dynamics between you and your allies.  Keep looking for the healthiest way to work with others.  Pay special attention to what service others are giving you (and recognize them for it!) and what service you are giving others (and recognize yourself for it).

Sagittarius:  You may find that Mars Retro sparks lots of activities in your Career and Reputation and Authority.  But it can spark some changes in directions, alliances and intentions too.  Be flexible.  Use whatever snafus arise to find even better ways to demonstrate your authority.  Lead in a way that acknowledges your and other’s good service.

Capricorn: Mars Retro can signal it’s time to redirect how you are pursuing moral, legal, educational, foreign involvements matters. You may be moved to involve yourself more deeply with what inspires you.  You might also have to work a bit harder to carry final decisions across the finish line, including ones for work. Allow any frustrations to show you how you can do things even better.

Aquarius:  Mars Retro can signal changes in direction or shifts in attitudes in matters dealing with Sex, Joint Finances, even Other’s Crises. This is terrific time to evaluate how you are conducting your intimacies with others – physically, emotionally and financially.  Is it healthy for you? Does anything need to be healed or cleared up? Do it!

Pisces:  Mars in Retro can trigger shifts in your Partnerships and Relationships.  If there is something that needs to be healed or renegotiated this is a good time to hash things out.   It’s also a good time to evaluate what you are giving and receiving in your relationships. Take action and be courageous and expressive with others. Give them a chance to know what you want - before you get mad.  Allow misunderstandings to be opportunities for greater healing and connection.
