Feeling scattered? Mars Retrograde energy is tricky – here’s why
Show Notes

Feeling scattered? Maybe a bit lethargic?

Got a lot going on but not making much ‘real’ progress? 

It could be because Mars is retrograde in Gemini… 

Let’s unpack this today. 📦📦📦

Mars moved into Gemini in August, and in this zodiac sign – Mars is quite curious. 

It’s got a lot of ideas on the go (sometimes a few too many…😳) 

Mars is also going to be moving backwards (or at least that’s what it will look like from our perspective here on Earth) for several months from now until mid-January 2023.

👉 This is likely to have a significant impact on what you can get done in your business.

Basically when a planet goes retrograde (particularly Mars) we can feel like we’re moving 3 steps forward, 2 steps back; or having to re-do things a few times…

In my opinion, this retrograde energy is something you can learn to embrace in your business to really refine what you want to be DOING. 

Mars is a DOING energy so we’re going to be reconsidering how we expend our energy in our businesses. 

Mars is related to our ability to focus, so when it’s retrograde (particularly in a sign like Gemini where it likes to do lots of things) you can have a lot of difficulty in focusing your energy and getting those ‘masculine’ type tasks underway.

You might also notice more frustration and even fatigue – especially if you have strong Mars energy or a Mars-ruled chart (which I’ll explain shortly). 

However, when Mars goes direct in mid-January, it’ll start moving forward quite quickly. 

This means you may notice you can get a flurry of things done all at once, so it could be good to plan for a more active January-February than usual in 2023.

This retrograde is going be most strongly felt by people with Mars-ruled charts – that’s Aries and Scorpio Rising, as well as those who have Gemini Rising (because it’s happening in your 1st house of identity).
