Astro Update ~ Mars and the Drama Club.
In this post I will focus mostly on Mars, the planet that acts as the agent of the soul. Helping us pursue and bring action to our desires.
The past week as I have connected with friends and listened to what has been going on with them - with myself - a very distinct theme emerged. It was one around boundaries, specifically around being female and choosing to discard our feelings of unease in certain situations so to not rock the boat or bring unwanted attention.
Social situations, professional settings require us to show up in a certain way, but when we ignore these instinctual feelings of “this doesn’t feel right, or I am uncomfortable” the after effect is murky and for myself feels dirty - more than anything a betrayal to myself.
This is where Mars can be helpful, the warrior energy is willing to fight for what is wants, what it believes, and is not scared to rock the boat per say.
Mars has entered Capricorn in the cosmos and is now giving us the opportunity to bring action to all the s**t that has surfaced this past year. The conjunction of Saturn and Pluto has been steeping in the collective energy for some time now, and with the help of Jupiter and Mars action is finally becoming tangible.
For me, anger has been an emotion that has required some extra space in my attention. As a female most messages from society do not encourage us to be angry, but whenever I go into a space to do some internal exploration, anger is always the first emotion that comes up, repressed and seeking exposure.
Part of what I am learning is healthy expressions for anger. Activities, spaces that hold space for this emotion. Hot yoga, swimming, punching a pillow (yep I have done that) whatever floats your boat.
This month in astrology offers us an invitation to bring in action. I always find it helpful to remember we begin with yin, with reflection, THAN we move to intentional action. So where is Capricorn in your own chart? Where has all this energy been directed in your own personal life? Start there and then let Mars do its thing.
As our ancestors have said, as above - so below. ###
