Mars is Retrograde in Cancer until Feb 23rd.  Mars turns Retrograde approximately every two years, for around three months.  However, due to its pre and post shadows, the complete duration of a Mars retrograde spans nearly seven months.  This is a period that is meant to be used for deep healing.  It’s all about healing any deeper emotional issues, and resolving any unfinished business.  This can be a difficult transition.  Cancer has a tie to past lives.  That means that past life connections and karmic entanglements can come up during this time.  Uranus in Taurus has been an ongoing theme and influence.  Uranus will leave Taurus on July 7th.  Uranus will then return to Taurus for a short time in November.  This can bring changes in money, possessions, resources, values, and self-esteem.  You may be guided to make some changes, or to bring some healing to these areas.  If Mars is action and desire, Uranus is awakenings and breakthroughs.  These are energies of passionate creativity, joyful self-expression, and emotional grounding.  It’s a great time for unexpected opportunities.  Make sure that you’re embracing change, and taking bold actions.  Mercury in Capricorn is also trine Uranus in Taurus.  This is great practical energy to harness for career success.  It’s great to heal or clear any issues so you can move forward more organized.  Today’s energy is all about turning your goals into reality.  With Mercury trine Uranus you’re being guided to break free from old patterns, and to be open to new ways of doing things.  Mercury in Capricorn helps you to ground your ideas into practical, long-term plans.  This isn’t just about dreaming big, it’s about making things happen.  These energies are helping you to lay the foundation for lasting success.
