Mars squares Uranus. In order to move forward we have to leave our comfort zone. We’re not going to get we want or what we desire using the same path or the same methods. Be willing to reinvent or turn things upside down, even if it’s uncomfortable.
Because the Sun’s in Cancer right now, a water sign, it’s possible that we’re feeling a lot of tension or anxiety in our gut, that flutter of butterflies that we get when we don’t know if we’re safe to make a change. We may be sifting through memories or emotions that may be decades old.
The astrology this week and into next is not easy astrology, but it’s productive astrology. It reminds me of how the body uses a fever to kill off microbes that may otherwise be upsetting its natural homeostasis. This is week to do our release work, but Mars in Leo square Uranus in Taurus may make us feel anxious about moving forward … or give us the push we need to make a major change.
Thankfully Mercury is retrograde, which is slowing down astrology that would otherwise be very impulsive. Also giving us some saving grace is today’s Sun trine Neptune. In its highest expression, Neptune is unconditional love and the miracle of healing.
So, reach towards the waters of Neptune today. They are a support for healing, for transformation, and even forgiveness. The Moon is still in Scorpio as well. Whatever we’re feeling is deep, profound.
