VIRGO THE VIRGIN Retrograde Saturn deals with limits and responsibilities. Retro Neptune, fact v fantasy. Retro Uranus, change and liberation. Retro Pluto, karmic consequences. Retro Mars, energy management. Thank goodness at least Jupiter’s on the move… CANCER: If you’ve been feeling stuck in rut lately, and frankly who hasn’t, retrograde Mars recommends an in-depth review before you pursue any new direction. Is it what you really want, or are you making survival decisions? The weekend moon in Cancer is this week’s best time for talking it through with your besties.
TAURUS: While expansive Jupiter’s move probably has you percolating with bright ideas, Mars’ retrograde till midNovember isn’t the time to force anything. Which doesn’t mean do nothing, just don’t push it. And sure, we all need a laugh, but this is a week when your jokes could easily miss their mark and backfire. the time wise Geminis back up data and strengthen security. Look past the present moment; what’s happening is temporary, and the winds of change will shift in a couple more months. For now, as Jupiter picks up forward momentum, at least some things will start to gain traction.

ARIES: Mars reversing through your sign for the next two months brings a wonderful opportunity to work with kneejerk reactions and irritability. For which you might find the Hawaiian ALOHA acronym helpful: Akahai, meaning kindness; Lokahi, meaning working in harmony; Olu’olu, meaning positive and pleasant; Ha’aha’a, meaning humble; and Ahonui, meaning patient.

LIBRA: Mars’ retrograde is known to ramp up arguments with partners, and strife in life generally. But handled with courage and care – plus the push of genial Jupiter moving forward – this two-month transit could sort through itchy issues, settle petty grizzles, and get you back on track with your nearest and dearest.
CAPRICORN: The rowdy red planet Mars reverses every other year for some in-depth, behind-the-scenes activity, which presently centres around getting your house in order. From now until mid-November it’s suggested you focus, not necessarily on major renos of Chateau Capricorn, but deep cleaning, and space clearing; more information about which in coming weeks.
LEO: Though it sometimes appears life is steady and linear, in reality everything ebbs and flows. With Mars lowering its amperage, you and everyone else could have short fuses. But don’t go there. Just, if you must, give them the Cat Look, because no-one wins if you lose your cool, especially you.
SCORPIO: Scorpio’s planetary co-ruler Mars going underground for two months has historically caused blowups with colleagues. But Jupiter correcting course will help with clearer communications, and you can manage stress levels best by looking after yourself, because the current heavy retrogrades need the benefit of your laser-like and X-ray perception.
AQUARIUS: Mars heating up communications for the next couple of months could see you, along with the rest of humanity, quick to combust. So step away from heated conversations, don’t engage in snark and gossip. Avoid sensitive, touchy topics, resist the urge to provoke. Or retaliate. And the saint’s halo is now officially yours…
VIRGO: With Mars making its biennial backswing through the intimate, intense part of your life, old issues could resurface, yet again, for resolution. The good news is Jupiter’s leap forward in your fun sector for the next three months. It won’t be back for another twelve years, so seize the days while you may.
SAGITTARIUS: Even if your ruling planet Jupiter has you feeling comfortable and flush right now, it’s best not to rack up non-essentials on credit as a feel-good exercise. Some form of financial management’s essential for the rest of year, so get a grip on the fantastic plastic, and try to find the joy of budgeting.
PISCES: Change isn’t always easy, and people deal with it in different ways. If Mars retro in your work and income zone brings stuff you thought was sorted flaring up again, don’t hit the panic button. Call for backup, because with Jupiter’s forward move, others will be more than willing to help.
