Mars Changes Signs

The planet Mars moved from its month and a half bout in Cancer, where our planet of Action and Discipline was debilitated. As of early this morning (Tuesday, September 15) in Hawaii, Mars moved into Leo, joining Jupiter and the Sun in this sign of Power and Responsibility. In Leo, Mars feels empowered and directed and we will all likely feel the shift from struggling to act, to being much more disciplined and ready to march in the direction of our responsibilities and ideals and beliefs. One thing to watch for, is our Anger towards anything we think is keeping us from our higher calling, as Mars energy can also be expressed at others in that way, when we aren't using his power to self-discipline. While he was in Cancer, his energy was quite clouded and tired, so we didn't have the Strength to get stuff done, or really to get that riled up. This is the time to get back to waking up early, and taking care of your body's physical needs, as well as whatever Action you need to take in this world.
He will be giving his dristhi, or glare, at both Saturn in Scorpio and Ketu in Pisces.  This can help to strengthen Saturn since the planet of our Fear is quite unstable in Mars' own sign of Scorpio and it will add some combustibility to Ketu, the critical South node of the Moon who has a tendency to bring harshness to our reality and sudden, unexpected events. Saturn is also giving drishti back to Mars, offering humility and perseverance as well as hesitance and doubt. This alignment will show us that strengthening our bodies alone will leave us fighting battles we are not aligned with.  We must have a purpose, a belief as shown by Jupiter's presence and we must be inspired and have power and Sattwic intention as shown by the Sun.  But we must also fight our inner battles and our fears, so that we maintain our alignment with our Self.
