Going off of the other thread that was about Mars Rx and starting "battles" or things that are coming to a head, etc.It seems like Mars Rx brings things that have been building up to a head, but we're not supposed to take action? As one example, we have a lot of stuff that just doesn't work properly in the rental we're living in. It technically "works", but not all the time, and not well. A lot of little things, like faucets, light fixtures, wiring, etc. We're pretty well had it, but I'm hesitant to really force the issue right now. Is this the time for planning, not taking action, or is it just a time for very calculated, well thought out action when things are coming to a head? IP: Logged |

This is my theory based on my personal observations about Mars Rx which are very limited to be fair: whatever Mars rules in your chart hold off till Mars is direct to start something new in that area specifically, if you don't the Rx dynamic might get in the way of things running smoothly which in some cases could be problematic enough for something not to take off bc of it...IP: Logged |

Maybe this is actually the time to make sure they're taken care of - if you're putting off telling your landlord. Some people say that Mercury Rx isn't all bad, that you can use the time to go over things, or do something right this time. IP: Logged |

Mars is RX in my 6th house and it SUCKS. I don't like it! I work in a high stress retail position that involves minute, painstaking details, and my review is coming up. I'm dreading it to the point I'd rather just quit and survive for a few weeks than worry myself or feel bad. IP: Logged |

I just realized that Mars Rx is traveling through my H4, which makes sense. And we're looking at homes to buy, so maybe that's part of why nothing is working out for us in that area... It feels so much like Mercury Rx still, it's kind of ridiculous. Plans getting all screwed up, too many appointments, and people seem to constantly be calling and texting me when I'm trying to focus on other things. I can't wait until it goes direct, this has really been the worst Mars transit for a while! IP: Logged |

Oh man, I wish I could explain the predicament that came up these past few weeks that had me thinking a lot about this Mars Rx. I can say now from my experience that it is a little bit of both—a time to hold back and scheme and wait for the right time to "attack" and also, a time when the "battles" you've started, come back to haunt you. Mars Rx can also be a time if any of the planning and scheming to take action has already been done, then this is when you go in for the kill. I think some of this might also have to do with Saturn being Rx, too. I have witnessed someone get gutted out in the public eye because of the fights they started in the past and it has not been pretty. But something tells me that once Mars goes direct, this person is going to come back swinging. IP: Logged |

I edited out my long post, but that's interesting. ^^ And goes along with something I found of an old interaction I had some years back. I wanted to talk to this person, but as far as I know, they're no longer here.This is how I've been feeling for a long while now, whenever I've had to defend myself:  Alter the wording to fit certain situations. There was a much better one, but I can't find it. My head is killing me. I wanted to be asleep three hours ago, but forgot that I was making yogurt in my instant pot. It's in the fridge now, so hopefully I can sleep, if I can find the tylenol and get rid of this pounding, and pointy pain in my left eye. IP: Logged |

Mars is currently in my 8th house again.I was wondering why I had a renewed interest in Aliens, Reptilian beings and all sorts of weird things that are unsettling(at worst). I think what Mars retrograde does , is have you revisit a past passion or review actions taken. Now in your case I would caution that if you do take action, you take into consideration that a lot of it is motivated by emotions. So you may respond in a very extreme manner and not objectively. When Scorpio is supplying the energy for Mars, there is a tendency for one to act in a manner that is destructive also. IP: Logged |

We're trying to gather information to help us get out of our lease if we find a home to buy (which wouldn't be so pressing if they would just fix what's broken in the house we're renting), or just pay a minimal fee to break it.
I wrote out a litany of the crap that needs to be fixed, or has been "fixed" that still doesn't work properly, and taken pictures, etc. It's backed up by an email I sent when we first moved in, but I don't actually believe any of it is grounds to break our lease legally.
Mars rules my H9, so I'm thinking that legal matters won't be an area I'll want to get involved with right now, but maybe it will fare better after it goes direct. IP: Logged |

It is really frustrating to deal with these kind of small inconveniences, so I empathize.With the transit of Pluto on my natal Moon, I felt like I was the local municipalities "play" thing. There was a week where we had no lights and had to light candles. The irony is that the more we tried to fix it i.e calling,writing e-mails etc. That we eventually swore off the whole thing and resolved ourselves to them sorting the business out at their own time. When we did "give up" . The lights went on and all was well with the world again. I wonder how your 4th house/Moon is looking. I am not saying don't take upon arms and fight. Do what will give you ease. IP: Logged |

Mars was squaring my Moon when it was at 5 Sag, and then moved backwards into my H4. It was also squaring my Sun, and conjunct my NN/Neptune. Otherwise, I don't think there's much affecting my Moon right at the moment, although Saturn is starting to touch on my T-square again. I don't really feel the Saturn square Moon transit, though. That's usually pretty noticeable, in terms of my relationships with women. Yes, really exasperating...
But, I have noticed that the more I concern myself with it, the more my energy becomes ungrounded. So I think I will send off this last email, allow my husband to say his piece, and leave it at that. I'm sure they'll want to come out and "take a look" at the things that need to be fixed, which is also a rather unnecessary inconvenience, as I doubt they'll actually fix anything, or pay to have anything replaced.  But whatever, I guess. I am kind of over it at this point. It's a small town/area, and I'm sure we'll be noted as difficult people to do business with, but I'm not sure how much I care about that. If we have to rent again, we won't be using their agency!  IP: Logged |

Good point looking at the house Mars is transiting in but then combining that with what house Mars rules in your chart and then you get a real good picture of what area is not going smoothly for now. I am looking forward to it going direct too! IP: Logged |

Mars rules my H9, so I'm going to guess that until it moves on we won't have much luck (if any) with our desire to break our lease without some financial hassles. They weren't very upfront about the issues with this house when we signed the lease, but there is one technicality we might be able to hit them with, but it's just that...a technicality. And I would have to look up the specific law that applies, etc. It's a pain. It would probably just be easier to give them some money and go. IP: Logged |

^ You don't have to move your response!This thread isn't just about my Mars Rx experience, although I can really dominate a thread.  I'm just baffled by how this transit is going... I can't think of anything else responsible for all of the jerky energy in my life right now. It's basically just like a Mercury Rx transit for me, but with more anger coming to the surface. But I'm so glad to hear that you've been able to patch things up and gain clarity with people, Teasel!  IP: Logged |

I've definitely been feeling the build up. I mean, I'm a triple Aries! I can't imagine other Aries-heavy people. Torture. Transit wise t.Mars is opposing t.Uranus in Aries (my 11th house) and I just put in notice to my job citing the main reason as feeling I just didn't fit in, which is only partially true. Ironically enough t.Jupiter is in my 4th house now, when it was ruling my career house in the horary I drew prior to getting this exact job. And this job is VERY VIRGO in nature. I can't stand it! Moon is ALMOST in Libra, and Saturn (which signifies my next career I think) is in my 6th house as well. t.Venus is in my 1st so I have no doubts I'll get another job that I like pretty quickly, well, quick in realistic terms. RX wise and whatnot I don't know. IP: Logged |

Its been Retrograde in my 12 H forever. 12 H rules things that are hidden and the unconscious. My dreams have been more powerful because of this and my love life has been at a stand still ever since its been retrograde. Although not that it was flourishing when it was direct - ha. But with Mars direct - can't wait till it enters my 1st H in Sag, things will definitely be less confusing. IP: Logged |
