The effects of Mars retrograde

When Mars retrograde sets in, its assets are often held back, meaning the notion of impulsiveness and spontaneity are delayed. The effects of the motion paradoxically require more time to materialize and set in. Slowness or obstacles may occur during this period and as a result, a discouragement or an unusual strain of tiredness could appear.

It’s best to take advantage of the Mars retrograde period to slow down and reflect on your life’s desires. Use this time to rethink the way you act and analyze the events that make you angry and upset. Find simple ways to calm your mind to evolve more serenely.

The stars also urge you to take advantage of this time by picking up activities that you haven't yet completed. It would be fruitful for you to take a step back and finalize projects you have going on. The Mars retrograde motion will in fact boost your energy. We must really see the action of Mars retrograde as an opportunity to reflect upon yourself and your wishes. This phase should be seen as an opportunity to look at your personal life and act accordingly.

⚠️ Warning: ⚠️

It’s also necessary to remain prudent if you need to fight against something. Don’t test yourself with new challenges and don’t make major changes, because they could fail during the retrograde phases of Mars.
