Mars Enters Sagittarius
Mars enters Sagittarius
4th PST 5:01 AM / 5th AEDT 12:01 AM
Mars enters Sagittarius, where it will travel for the next six weeks. As it ingresses, the warrior planet makes the same opposition to Uranus that Mercury made last week. This standoff sparks conflict and intensifies thrill-seeking behavior. Sudden changes in fate are possible.
Mars in Sagittarius dares us to explore possibilities, no matter how ill-conceived! We become utopians in this territory. There are no journeys too perilous or conquests too irrational for Mars to turn down on principle. However, during its clash with Uranus, a planet that enjoys chaos for chaos’ sake, wanderlust can be diverted into borderline nonsensical pursuits. Uranus has no qualms about marooning a traveler far from home, especially if we’re daring the universe to give us a 'memorable' experience.
It's therefore wise to keep your wits about you now, or you may wind up like Odysseus, mired in a misadventure of your own making. The atmosphere is provocative, and we want to stir things up. We want novelty and an infusion of fresh energy; a mission to devote our energy to. But it’s important to find a balance between shifting our routines or breaking out of moulds and throwing caution completely to the wind.
We will become more intentional about our pursuits as the weeks go on. November 23/24 asks us to make an important decision: is a dream worth chasing? Is a vision worth pursuing? Signs point to yes, even if an unforeseen challenge in early December forces us to set up camp and wait out unfavorable conditions.
