Astrology this week begins by emblematically asking “What’s your passion?” Mercury entered Aries yesterday for the first time in a year. Today, the Sun opposes Mars for the first time in more than two years, all while the Moon moves through Leo. What all those events (and more) have in common is astrology’s archetypal fire and a correspondence to passion.
Aries and Leo (along with Sagittarius) are the ‘fire signs’. The red color of Mars also evokes fire (even though retrograde through cool Libra), as does the blazing Aries Sun opposing Mars today.
Based on what the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars and the fire signs represent, it’s symbolically hot up there. That’s not to say the other three elements associated with astrology (earth, air and water) are not well represented — they are. Nevertheless, fire is a dominant issue in the heavens right now.
Because you are part of the solar system, it makes sense for your life to be somewhat synchronized with the heavens, just as it is with the seasons. Hence, any issue implied above will probably show up in your life at the same time.
You may already have taken or given some heat since yesterday. You might have known the burn of either annoyance or enthusiasm over the weekend. If such has been your experience, please consider its probable purpose.
