Astro Daily: January 5, 2021

Last day of Mars in Aries. It’s been a long journey for the planet of action and courage. First arriving in Aries on June 27, 2020, it’s been a six month work to shift how we use our Mars. Hopefully we’re a little wiser.

Mars also activated a certain part of our astrology chart, demanding that we rework our relationship with our anger, impatience, and inaction while Mars was retrograde from September to November. (If you need a refresher on where Mars was in your chart, read Mars in Aries: Sign by Sign.) As a Scorpio, I realized I needed to work smarter, not harder.

Come tomorrow, Mars will arrive in Taurus and activate a new part of our chart. Whereas Mars was very strong in Aries, it will have a very different vibe in Taurus. If Mars is motivation, then we’ll be motivated to slow down, enjoy life, and seek out pleasure. We’ll be more aware of money and resource, taking action to create more material stability in our lives.

Just a heads up — and this is something that I talked about in my Facebook Live yesterday — Mars will be in the same sign as Uranus, forming a conjunction on January 20. A story that began in May 2018/March 2019 comes to the forefront. In fact, is the first time that Mars will join Uranus in Taurus in this cycle. (Meaning, this is the first time Mars will conjunct Uranus in Taurus in 80 years.)

The wheel of life keeps turning.
