Mars turns retrograde today. He will spend the next several weeks trekking backwards through his home sign of Aries. Mars retrograde is a piece of astrological symbolism that is easily experienced. This time around it’s triggering much of the big 2020 astrology. You didn’t think things were gonna ease up as we enter the final stretch of the year did you?
When a planet is retrograde the energy symbolised takes on a more inwardly focussed expression. Because Mars represents this very yang, very outward, forward moving expression of energy, when it reverses palpable. More so than Venus or Mercury.
This week feels a bit like a confrontation with our core selves, as if the ego sees through its own image and catches a glimpse of all the soul level tectonic movements that have been going on this year.
