Tonight is a rare and wondrous sight, as Mars makes what is called, “Close Approachâ€. In Astrological terms, it makes for a tumultuous time on planet Earth. The last time Mars was this close to Earth was 2003, (which numerologically equals a “5†years, the number associated with Mars.)
Everywhere you look, you can see the day-by-day destruction of so many things around us. The industries of Health, Agriculture, and everything we hold dear, is seemingly crumbling around us. This creates a perfect storm of anger, which leads to the mob mentality that is rising all over the world.
Mars, as a Fire Planet, rules the Zodiacal Fire Sign of Aries, the God of War. You don’t really need a psychic to tell you how unpleasant things are for everyone right now.
You think Mercury Retrograde is bad? You must not know about Mars Retrograde! Right now, Mars is in “reverse†motion at 23º in Aries, his own sign. This just makes it more intense. Mars retro started on Wednesday, September 9th, and will stay retro until November 13th.
Mars Retrograde Scenarios:
—Anything made of steel will tend to malfunction, including materials for cars, rockets, and planes;
— Accidents involving deep cuts, or slashes (including more amputations);
— Accidents involving cars, trains, buses and planes;
— Bacterial infections of the brain (such as Naegleria fowleri);
— Blood disorders;
— Neurological disorders (after-effects of COVID-19);
— Head and facial injuries (Aries rules the face);
— Mountain-climbing injuries and fatalities (Aries the Ram, rules Mountains and Heights); and
— Wars;
Any important dates that come up around then? Like, maybe the United States Presidential Election? Hmm. Thought so. Not only that, Mercury will go retrograde on October 15th, 2020 — just to add a little gasoline to the fire.
Most Astrologers warn Aries that they will be most affected — not so. Anybody with planets in the other Cardinal signs of Cancer, Libra and Capricorn will be feeling it too. Especially those who have any planets in those signs within 6º before or after the “Direct Hitâ€. I will be posting these dates soon, so stay tuned.
In the meantime, I would suggest buying stock in Aspirin, and Essential Oil manufacturers to help make it through these ever increasingly-intense times.
I’d strongly suggest scheduling a reading with me soon, as I’m currently offering an Apocalypse Special. Just request it by name.
