Mars at 28 degrees 19 minutes Scorpio is sextile Pluto at 28 degrees 19 minutes Capricorn at 1.12 am GMT 22^nd November 2023.

Taking action with strong conviction to do what is important to you should go well if you don’t veer away from aiming for what you want to achieve. An increase in physical strength shouldn’t be wasted; make the most of it whilst it’s here. Destroying what is no longer of any use to you and has become an obstruction in the way of the process of transformation, should be fairly straight-forward, if you’re passionate about your objectives. The effect of personal psychoanalysis can give you the energy and drive to gain power over what you do with your life.

Mars at 24 degrees 59 minutes Scorpio is square retrograde Neptune at 24 degrees 59 minutes Pisces at 8.37 am GMT 17th November 2023.

Intense focus and determination can easily cut through delays and restrictions due to uncertainty, vagueness, deception or procrastination. Assertiveness and being forceful when necessary can help you to clarify any suspicions you have based on your intuition and how you have been led by your instincts. If you have been tolerating a situation for too long you may gain enough energy and drive to take action, but choose to avoid confrontation when action has to be taken; the ability to adapt and use creative solutions may be the answer.

Those who are ruthless or vindictive may use what control they have against those who are not in as strong as a position as they are. People who are on the receiving end of this attack could feel shaken and as if an element of calm and stability has been threatened when they haven’t been prepared for it. This transit is also a breaking point for many where they will no longer tolerate being restricted or oppressed. If this is the case, resist acting now because it won’t go as planned. Bide your time, at least after Uranus is in direct and not retrograde motion, which will be time to retaliate.

Mars at 11 degrees 16 minutes Scorpio is opposition retrograde Jupiter at 11 degrees 16 minutes Taurus at 4.04 pm GMT 5.04 pm BST 28^th October 2023.

When common sense takes a back seat, it can lead particular individuals to act in a domineering and controlling manner. If you are on the receiving end of this behaviour, it’s best to take a step back and not to engage in confrontation. Generally, there could be an increase in what you want to do in a wide range of areas of your life. Taking on too much is a risk, so you will have to engage a touch of ruthlessness in what you want to direct your time and energy into. More care should be taken with how you make financial and ethical decisions; you can’t look after everything and everyone, it’s not up to you to do so.

The Sun at 0 degrees 37 minutes Scorpio is trine retrograde Saturn at 0 degrees 37 minutes Pisces at 7.14 am GMT 8.14 am BST 24^th October 2023.

Discipline and self-control can be managed without being too hard on yourself. You could find that you are inspired to get your life in order as this can give you a sense of peace, by learning to be more resilient and self-reliant. If you know what you want you should be receptive to advice from those with more experience and knowledge than you have. Insecurities or personal anxieties that would normally restrict you are weakened, so you are able to concentrate on what you seek to achieve. Choosing to be ruler of your own destiny means that you will have to work hard, but it doesn’t mean it will be so complicated that it can’t be done.

Mars at 0 degrees 55 minutes Scorpio is trine retrograde Saturn at 0 degrees 55 minutes Pisces at 12.30 pm GMT 1.30 pm BST 13^th October 2023.

Energy is controlled to make its impact felt as strongly as possible. Positions of leadership and authority can be taken off the shoulders of those in a position of command, who have carried that responsibility for a substantial amount of time. Discipline and focus will come easily to those who believe they can push forward against all odds. Pay attention to people with knowledge and experience to offer you; to become a master you must learn from the master. Even if at first it doesn’t make sense in what they want to teach you; there will be reasons for their methods that you won’t understand yet.

Mars at 27 degrees 53 minutes Libra is square retrograde Pluto at 27 degrees 53 minutes Capricorn at 12.58 am GMT 1.58 am BST 9^th October 2023.

Look out for fierce conflict of power between those who actively seek diplomacy and those who have traditionally been in control but are unwilling to give it up. If there are long-term and drastic changes taking place or about to take place in the near future, you should weigh up the pros and cons that will be involved. Transformations during this transit are going to be unstoppable, so it’s best to confront and destroy obstructions now before they can build up to be a bigger challenge than anticipated. It’s advisable not to pick a fight with anyone who is stronger than yourself. There is a time and a place for a battle; this isn’t one of them.

The Sun at 15 degrees 33 minutes Virgo is trine retrograde Jupiter at 15 degrees 33 minutes Taurus at 11.14 am GMT 12.14 pm BST 8th September 2023.

There is optimism in the air but it comes with a dose of reality. Ambitions are kept achievable by monitoring finances so you can live within your means. Although personal investments shouldn’t be initiated at the moment, it will be a sensible move to see what the most reliable options are. Opportunities for good fortune are out there if you pay attention to what is happening around you. They won’t fall in your lap, but they are easily obtainable. A lot can be accomplished with hardly any effort, when previously it would have been too much on your plate. As far as your health is concerned, going outside and experiencing nature could do you a world of good; physically, mentally and emotionally.

Mars at 27 degrees 0 minutes Virgo is opposition retrograde Neptune at 27 degrees 0 minutes Pisces at 8.35 pm GMT 9.35 pm BST 22nd August 2023.

The ability to be organised, methodical and meticulous in the action you take may be at odds with spending too much time escaping into your own world. This is most likely to happen if you feel discouraged from taking the initiative if you suspect what you want to do won’t be done correctly, or to a high enough standard. It’s easy to feel discouraged if the action you want to take won’t go in the direction you want it to go. Any sources of guilt, disorientation or confusion that affect your ability to be clear and assertive about what you want to do, could trip you up is you don’t know how you can deal with them.

Creating order from disorder should progress smoothly during this transit. It may be an exciting prospect to organise a plan of action to build a new and improved future. That will lead to a discovery of skills that will be of practical use in years to come. Burdens from the past can be pushed aside with the minimum of exertion. Freedom from obligations that drain your energy is what drives you to do what is right for you instead of what you think is expected of you. Barriers can be broken without destroying everything in your path.
