Mars in Virgo Has Us Looking for Recognition

There is not a lot of watery energy today. Airy Aquarius keeps fanning the flames of Aries and Leo. Meanwhile, Mars moves into earthy Virgo, giving us a great sense of obligation and a need to excel. All this Earth, Wind, And Fire makes me want to take a trip to Boogie Wonderland. 

The Moon Is Sextile Saturn at 1:58 AM

Early this morning, the moon in passionate Aries forms a sextile with Saturn who is happy at home in considerate Aquarius. Under this sextile, we put a lot of time and dedication into our goals. Between Aries’ passion and Aquarius’ innovation, we feel inspired. It may have been hard for us to find motivation lately, but now we have it in droves.

Now is a great time to tackle your goals. But maybe focus on personal goals rather than professional ones. Professional goals are important, but personal goals will benefit your mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

Mars is Opposite Jupiter at 1:20 PM

Around lunchtime, Mars in conceited Leo forms an opposition with Jupiter in Aquarius. Under this opposition, we can be harsh with our words and stingy in our actions. The temperamental nature of these signs can cause us to neglect the emotional well-being of those around us.

Leo is bringing a lot of arrogant energy to the table, while Aquarius is decreasing our patience for others. We might be tempted to spend a lot of money and time on ourselves, but not have much to spare for our fellow humans. This disregard for others can cause issues in our personal and professional lives.

While it is very important to take care of ourselves, we have to fight against the urge to be greedy. You can look out for “Number One” as long as you remember you’re not the only one.

Mars Moves into Virgo at 4:21 PM

A few hours later, Mars follows Venus into innovative Virgo. Mars rules our drive and determination and when in Virgo, we are driven to be intellectually stimulated.  We are reasonable and pragmatic when tackling our goals. We feel powerful and capable of taking on more responsibility. Though this inflamed sense of duty can get in the way of our romantic connections.

We have a strong desire to be recognized for all of our accomplishments. We may experience intense disappointment if we do not get the recognition we feel we deserve. This desire may cause us to try and overshadow others in conversation. It is important that we remember that this is not Super Mario Bros., and we do not always need to one-up people.
