I've read that everything started during this time will fizzle out once mars goes direct! Mars is transiting my 1st house right now and depleting my drive to do anything, I'm so tired!! I feel so much frustration right now and want to accomplish thing but can't get anything to happen between my lack of energy, drive and nothing going as planned...I'm getting depressed.But this is supposed to be a time of turning inward and not trying to make anything new happen, if you do once mars goes direct it will take whatever you started with it! So I'm just trying to endure this time! Men seem to be more aggressive n taking frustrations out on me, things in my house keep breaking. I know it's not as bad as retrograde Merc, but I'm Venus ruled so it's hitting me really hard, actually harder than rx Merc ever has! I has plumbing issues last week, my heater went out, followed by my hot water heater and I just noticed my washer was leaking a few minutes ago! They say if you purchase anything new during this time make sure it's heavily insured! Don't start new business ventures until mars has went direct in June! I'm going to go take a cold shower now because I can't get anyone out to fix my hot water heater until the morning! Sigh.... Anyone one else feeling this to?? IP: Logged |

Interesting you say men are being MORE aggressive..I've read the opposite has been happening and men are being more passive.

Your house is your foundation. It's you, on the inside. You are being restructured (Pluto in 4H transit shows this time of deep introspection). Mars in first is forcing you to take action showing yourself to others and getting what you want for yourself to satisfy your ego. Retrograde is making you step back and examine this. Trust your good transits like Venus in fifth and Jupiter in 10th - no need to worry how others see you. Step back and reevaluate your structure and how the past ways of being on the inside don't serve you any longer. You don't need to prove yourself quite yet, or force action - Jupiter in 10th will make it easy on you as you are shifting. Plenty of time with NN transit first and mars when it goes direct for this. Mars will activate natal mars and trigger antivertex. This next year will support you restructuring yourself. Your house is telling you to restructure your entire foundation, support and security. Mars is urging you to act but first pay attention to how you send out your energy. It does not want you to repeat situations from the past. Focus on your good transits and celebrate how far you have come. IP: Logged |

Aries ppl become more passive, but the ppl who are generally quiet are the ones starting to be jerks n be more aggressive. "Those who have Aries or Scorpio strong in their horoscopes are dramatically affected by this shift in direction of their natural ruler. For Arians, they find themselves being less aggressive, less pushy and less impatient to have THEIR WAY in a situation. Both Mars-ruled types find themselves more inclined to sit back and review matters in a more detached or impersonal way. They feel more patient to wait on circumstances to unfold before they take action. These individuals may not recognize the anger they feel inside. They may express an unusual passiveness while under fire because they need too much processing time before they can retaliate. Only when Mars turns direct can they move the Mars energy forward.
For those who are NOT ruled by Mars, it may feel quite differently. They may feel more impatient to force matters." IP: Logged |

That's so crazy because I have has exactly what your talking about happening...I'm changing my ways in how I deal with men n kind of testing them. I feel terrible but really I don't care because I'm not going to let another person hurt me. But I'm scared I'm isolating ppl I really like, like they think I'm to difficult to deal with. I'm not sure if I'm being unreasonable or not? So I'm taking a break and trying to find some balance to figure out what's really me n what's my fear my pain acting out.

tMars is in my 5th house ruled by Libra and rx, ugh I started something and it fizzled out before it was even over! Stupid. All the young guys in my life have been acting weird whether that be getting mad over something stupid, or kind of paying unusual attention to me. A LOT of cardinal signs have gone through break ups around now though, I wonder if they will get back together when Mars goes direct in May?IP: Logged |

Very sorry to hear about your troubles. I was gonna start a topic about technology failing around this time, too, after I became unlucky myself. First, my relatively new laptop broke. Then within last week my bf's even newer laptop has different parts failing (first fan, then yesterday - sound). It really scks, because we have some IT related projects to do. I can't believe I have to wait till June to buy a new computer IP: Logged |

Personally I wouldn't, I'll dabble with tge possibility to beginning the actual relationship both physical and emotional nope. The same for starting conflicts, never seems to work in the aggressors' favor.

From what I've read it is common for the relationship to pick back up after it goes direct if they haven't destroyed the possibilities for a reconciliation. IP: Logged |

That's very true!! I started a relationship the day mars was stationary rx....n we really like each other but it seems everything in life is making it impossible to see each other. His job had a sudden change that forced him to be away for at a month at time. We tried so many times to make plans to see each other because he was told he was going to be off, then they wouldn't let him go. Since feb 27th, we have seen each other once for a few hours. Then his job placed him in an area that he works with natural gas....so he can't use his phone because it's potentially an explosion hazard. The only time he has off is a few hours to sleep...he works 17 hour days right now, 3 weeks straight. He said this is insane and he knows it will slow down eventually....I think it's retrograde mars messing with everything! Right now I decided it's better if we don't have any expectation of each other and not talk that much....I don't want to get my feelings so deep that I they get hurt because he can't be as involved in our relationship as I'd like and as much as he would like...I'm afraid I'll get mad n break up or say things I don't mean. I've decided it would be best to wait to move forward after mars goes direct. But we do really really like each other...it's just the situation that's killing us. He told me this distance and getting his hopes up to see me then having it not happen over n over is affecting him so much he has thought about quitting his job, we both agreed he can't do that! I'm just going to wait to go any deeper with him, if I don't im afraid this transit ruin us. His scorpio Venus I'm Pluto conjunct Venus so we both are intense regarding love n relationships.

Reading your post, I got the feeling that your woes are more Uranus in Aries inclined than Mars.I,for instance, have a problem with the stove and oven.They stopped working on Sunday when Mercury was conjunct Uranus in Aries. Uranus disrupts our daily life routines and makes things that we once took for granted, very much in demand or tasks that were "easy", a lot more taxing i.e washing dishes with cold water in winter because the geyser is broken. Your stove suddenly stops working and you don't get that much desired Sunday hot meal(like I didn't) or the roof leaks during a rainstorm and the water seeps through to your room; wetting all your belongings etc. Uranus is annoying and disruptive but also "shakes" things up so that you don't live under the false guise that things will always proceed the same way. And Uranus also governs electrical appliances? So,when things stop working or "suddenly" break, you can be sure Uranus is involved. And I think you should also prepare yourself for more "shakes" or "accidents". As transiting Mars is going to oppose Uranus for a while. So an electrical spark ,because of faulty wiring, could end the life of that much beloved toaster or a beloved pet may get hit by a speeding motorist etc.

Wait isn't retrograde until mid may? and suppose u met someone during the retrograde, would it make a difference if you make it official after the retrograde? I am really curious because I myself am getting ready for summer romance haha IP: Logged |
