Astrologer, Lynn Hayes writes: “I’m just impressed that you find time to go to the gym.” Thank you, Lynn. But for a person like me the gym is non-negotiable. When you have racing Mars-y energy the way I do, and you lack an outlet where it can be overtly expressed, it’s going to back up, twist […]
Mars goes retrograde every two years. Where the planet usually transits a sign in two months, these retrograde periods see the planet stuck in a sign, and therefore stuck in your chart, for much longer.
