Mars enters Sagittarius Saturday at 5:57 pm EDT, after about a month and a half in Scorpio. Sagittarius is a fire sign — and Mars is a fiery energy. If Mars in Scorpio was the slow burn, or the sense of dropping deep into the erotic magma at your core, Mars in Sagittarius is about fanning that heat out into the world.<\/p>\n

Smoke tornadoes as ‘the man’ burns at Burning Man 2012. Where will your adventure lead you? Photo by Amanda Painter.<\/figcaption><\/figure> It\u2019s about letting something ignite within you that can translate your more idealistic desires and sense of soul-purpose into some tangible adventure. You\u2019re being invited to go beyond your known borders in a bold and adventurous way — whatever that boils down to for you.<\/p>\n

But the realization of a sense of purpose in life can feel terrifying. Because once you own that, you begin to run out of excuses for not getting down to business living it. What if the sky\u2019s message is that the current adventure ahead of you has a clear purpose and as much assurance of success as is possible? Will you choose your direction, go forward, and keep going forward? Do you trust what you want?<\/p>\n

Note that as soon as Mars enters Sagittarius it will be closing in on a square to Neptune in Pisces.<\/p>\n

Mars square Neptune is partly a caution to be honest with yourself and wary of self-delusion in your motives — that is, to be wary of \u2018wants\u2019 that are really just distractions. It\u2019s also a reminder to keep careful tabs on your alcohol and drug use. On a more metaphysical level, Mars-Neptune is a good reason to keep your energetic\/psychic boundaries strong and to stay in clear psychic integrity.<\/p>\n

But Mars square Neptune has incredible creative potential, too. And in a sense, creativity is delusional. That\u2019s the whole idea. It\u2019s not supposed to make perfect sense or be practical. Any relationship into which you channel your creative fire, regardless of its label (work, love, play, etc.), is about to get a real lift.<\/p>\n

As it does, you may very well find your voice in a way that is close to your heart. Not in the pages of your journal or the confines of your imagination, but out there — in your community.<\/p>\n
