Mars trades Gemini for Cancer, a sign where the planet of action and determination has to navigate the emotional ebbs and flows of life. In Cancer, Mars also can no longer be self motivated. Instead, the emotional needs of others take priority.
This is also a Mars that is a fierce advocate for those it loves. It wants to protect. While Cancer is not Mars’s natural domain, instead it’s a Mars where family and home are a main driver. (Read Mars in Cancer: Sign by Sign.)
With Mars in Cancer, we’re beginning to ramp up eclipse season. Mars is now square the Lunar Nodes. We can no longer be passive. We may be pushed to take action. It’s another precursor of the October 2, 2024 solar eclipse at 10 Libra.
The Moon’s also in Libra today and through September 6. It’s not uncommon to see an eclipse a month before. Relationships and social connection continue to be a key theme.
If you are in AUSTRALIA or NZ, this forecast applies approximately for September 5, 2024.
