Mars is referred to as the action planet, relating to physical energy, personal direction, goals, will, anger, aggression, sex drive, sexuality, the way we move, and the way we do things, in general.
One of the primary astrological events for 2016 is a Mars
retrograde period from April 17 to June
29 when Mars will appear to re-trace its steps in backward motion through
the zodiac.
Mars retrogrades occur once every two years. With the
upcoming retrograde period from 8
degrees Sagittarius to 23 degrees Scorpio, the path we are actively carving
through life will be changing - or at the very least, deepening - in 2016, becoming
more fully aligned with our personal belief systems, faith, and truth.
Both Sagittarius and Scorpio are known as quite passionate
signs, and this Mars retrograde period indicates a time of “passions directed
and re-directed.”
In Sagittarius, Mars is actively seeking meaningful experiences
that boost inspiration, exhilaration, joy, and faith, as well as deepening our
knowledge of the truth.
In Scorpio, Mars desires to know stone, cold reality, right
down to its deep, dark (and sometimes ugly) core. Mars in Scorpio leaves no
stone left unturned.
