If you’re single, don’t start any new relationships-Mars Retrograde is a recipe for passive aggression and growing resentment, leading to you popping off over how loudly bae chews gum.

But I would never throw all this Retrograde nightmare fuel at you without letting you know how to get through it all! You just need to remember that your Martian side-your sense of independence, your motivation, your drive-is hard-core flopping right now, so starting new projects simply isn’t an option now. TBH, this transit is going to be rough on everyone. Mars stations direct on November 13, but you’re still cleaning up the mess until the post-Retrograde shadow ends in late December. Finally, from November 3 until November 13, you’re likely to make changes to fix these issues.

From September 13 until November 3, Mars is properly retrograde, and you’re figuring out why all your motivation has disappeared and how to deal with your loss of energy. From September 1 until September 13, Mars is in its first station-it’s slowing down in the sky and making you feel like total crap. In fact, I’ve got a little Mars Retrograde timeline for you. Push on through, bb-it won’t last forever! Mars, the god of war, feels like a total wimp right now, and so do you. But when Mars begins moving backward, that fiery drive and confidence evaporates. Yeah, yikes! Aries is the zodiac’s archetypal warrior, so when Mars is in Aries (like it is now) but not retrograde, you feel determined and ready for action. Basically, Mars Retrograde is a time when your sense of motivation, how energetic you feel, and your sex drive begin to slow down and behave weirdly. Mars is the planet of ego, motivation, aggression, and libido, and Retrogrades are times when things get turned upside down. The cardinal signs Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn are getting hit the hardest by this transit, but Leos and Sagittarians are having a much easier (but still difficult) time. This time around, it’s taking place in its favorite sign, Aries, from September 9 until November 13 (but you’ll feel its effects up until the very end of December). Mars Retrograde doesn’t get as much press as Mercury Retrograde, but it’s objectively a real toughie of a transit. So, I have some unfortunate news- Mars Retrograde is here to bring a torrential downpour on your parade.
