Mars in Gemini - How will it affect you?
Mars has entered Gemini on August 20th, 2022, and will be in the sign of Gemini until March 25th, 2023.
This is a 7-month transit with a long retrograde from October 30th, 2022, to January 12th, 2023.
Mars in traditional tropical astrology is the planet of activation, war, conflict, passion, sex, ambition, drive, and overall ENERGY. And in the sign of Gemini, this is bringing a mercurian flare to the energy. This means that we need to be ready to have heated arguments, be ready to have the energy to move forward, reflect and change whatever this planet is activating in our chart.
Everything has its shadow and potential for something great. As you read your sun, and rising horoscope for this transit, keep that in mind. While we do not have control over how exactly astrological transit manifest in our lives, what we can do is figure out how to move intentionally with it.
In the next few months, ALOT of planets will be in retrograde all at the same time. This will be a time of deep reflection. Getting it right. Not avoiding or running away from the past, but actually facing it so we can move forward. The potential here is major healing and growth. If you remain stubborn and closed off, you will miss out on the potential and face a lot of the shadows. Which also brings healing so either way… you will come out of this year viewing things very differently.
These horoscopes were channeled and read using the rising signs HOWEVER if you do not know your rising sign you can def look at your sun sign because it will still influence your sun. Sun = Soul, heart, ego, and your core identity. Rising = Identity, your body, and how you respond to the world and the world responds to you. Take what EMPOWERS YOU, and leave the rest!
……….
Gemini- Mars is transiting your first house (Gemini Rising) you might have a sudden strong urge to work out or try something new regarding your body. You might dye your hair red, you might change your clothing, etc. But all this energy is going to run through your body and want to get out. If you find yourself feeling more anxious than normal, I would add some somatic practices to your routines. This transit might also make you feel a little defensive. Like you need to explain yourself to people. Try not to fall into the trap, just do you!
Taurus- Mars is transiting your second house (Taurus Rising) you might feel this strong urge to hustle. To meet your money goals. Also, clear out anything that is blocking you regarding money. This will be a great time to create systems for new projects and businesses that will allow money to flow more freely. This is a great time to level up and raise prices as you level up your offerings (job, career, and/or business). Def “Going after the bag” vibes. The 2nd house also rules your self-esteem. If you are someone who has struggled to find value and self-love outside of “money” and possession, this transit is going to show you that you are more than what you own. This can look like a loss of money if you aren’t being intentional with how you spend it.
Aries- Mars is transiting your third house (Aries Rising) you might feel like having all the hard conversations. Nothing will get past you, and you aren’t shy about confronting what needs to be confronted. Important conversations will come out of this transit as well as you will have all the right words. Don’t avoid any conversations because I promise you will come out of it with everything you needed to know. Just remember to remain level-headed. If you avoid conversations, you might run the risk of your emotions growing more and more intense. This may cause you to blow up, so to avoid that: speak your mind as soon as you can. Do not let it grow.
Pisces- Mars is transiting your fourth house (Pisces Rising) you will focus on your home. Your home, family, and ancestral ties. I see you finding motivation because of family or home matters. You may discover new information about your ancestry that motivates you on your path. There might be some disagreements and conflicts in the home, but whatever comes up is to create better communication. Anything that hasn’t been talked about in the home will be made clear during this transit. Generational patterns you may have missed might become super present during this time or you will feel more passionate than ever to not repeat past mistakes you saw in your home growing up.
Aquarius- Mars is transiting your fifth house (Aquarius Rising) you will feel super creative. New ideas that excite you will be activated. You may also find yourself writing more than usual. Use your words in creative ways. Writing poetry, writing letters to your future self, past self, and maybe even to others. This transit is def pushing you to find more joy in your life. Be adventurous! You might be the person in your friend group who is aggressively trying to live your best life while everybody else is catching the winter blues lol
Capricorn- Mars is transiting your sixth house (Capricorn Rising) “Get it together” Vibes lol The fifth house is our routine. It’s our wellness. You will be focused on your daily routines and how they help us to feel grounded. This transit is going to have you write things down, to-do lists will be your best friend. Organization will be your best friend as well. Maybe there will be tension between your routines and your wellness goals, but at the end of this transit you will have figured it out. Mars is giving you all the energy you need to get this figured out!
Sagittarius- Mars is transiting your seventh house (Sagittarius Rising) the focus will be on your intimate relationships. A lot of sex, a lot of passion, or a lot of conflicts. Conflict isn’t always bad. It brings changes, transparency, and growth. This is what I see happening during this transit. What needs to be communicated for you to find more passion and connection in your relationships? This transit is only bringing you closer to more exciting and passionate relationships, and in the end, you will find that.
Scorpio- Mars is transiting your eighth house (Scorpio Rising). Truth and transformation. I see y’all discovering a truth about yourself, and that changing where you are going. Focus on your truths though. Focus on what it is that needs to change for you to live closer to who you are meant to be. This is the house of rebirth, and by the end of the transit, you will be having your phoenix moment. Death and rebirth don’t come without grieving the past. Allow yourself to move through the grief. This house also brings up debt and loans, so you may also find yourself making a plan to clear out debt and pay things off.
Libra- Mars is transiting your ninth house (Libra Rising). Sharing your wisdom but also actually living as you preach. You might feel more restless than normal, but channel this energy into confidence and enthusiasm. This transit is helping you be more open-minded. Allow your mind to expand what it already knows as well. You might find yourself bumping heads with people, but use this as an opportunity to grow. Growing your mental library. This is not a time to stay in your comfort zone. You’ve outgrown your old space, and now that spirit has moved you to a bigger space it feels scary. Don’t worry, you were once scared of the space you’ve now outgrown. This is the potential of you being a living embodiment of all the work you’ve done.
Virgo- Mars is transiting your tenth house (Virgo Rising) you will feel so much ambition! Energy towards figuring out what is your legacy. What do you want to be known for, and what do you want to leave behind? This area of your life will be given the motivation and wake-up call it needed. If you haven’t been thinking about these things or you have been on the wrong path, it will be made abundantly clear and with mars there to help, it will give you the drive to make the changes necessary. You are going to feel a deep desire to be noticed. To be recognized for all the hard work you’ve put into your work. Let where you are naturally recognized be where your energy moves towards. You do not need to force or convince anyone to recognize your genius.
Leo- Mars is transiting your eleventh house (Leo Rising), friendships, long-term goals, and generosity are the themes. How do you naturally make a difference in the lives of those around you? What difference do you want to make long term? Things are getting better for you as Mars makes its way through your 11th house because you will have the energy to plan ahead. The energy to put your ideas on paper and take action. So at the same time that you are thinking about your long-term goals, you are also going to spend some time reflecting on your friendships.
Cancer- Mars is transiting your twelfth house (Cancer Rising) you are going to feel this energy focused on matters of your subconscious mental health, spirituality, and shadow self. In the highest expression, this transit is going to open you up spiritually. Recognizing your spiritual place in this world and also your natural gifts. You might be moved to go on a spiritual trip. Try new technics. In its shadow expression, this transit can bring up some deep truths about your shadow. Where do the negative feelings live that maybe you have suppressed? This house, while it’s sometimes dark and misunderstood, It’s also super healing. So whether it’s taking spiritual trips into the underworld of your subconscious mind or sitting with your shadow: you will come out of this transit healing a lot and knowing so much more about yourself.
…..
May this give you the guidance you were looking for. May Mars bless upon your life all the energy, ambition, and power to move forward in your purpose and joy. Asé.
Sending you love and blessings,
Ash
