Transits: Mars Turns Direct in Cancer
On February 23, Mars finally moves forward again in Cancer… and this changes everything.
Mars Awakens: The Moment Everything Changes
Something has been brewing in silence. A contained fire, a pause before impact. But now, Mars awakens. And when Mars awakens, action is inevitable. On February 23rd, Mars finally moves forward in Cancer… and this changes everything.
What Does Mars Going Direct Mean?
Mars is the force of action. It has been on pause, like a drawn bowstring. Now it activates, but in Cancer, a sign of protection, territory, and visceral reactions. This is not just an astronomical event; it is a turning point in the energy of the year.
Mars has been holding back its energy.
When it starts moving again, pent-up action is released.
In Cancer, action is emotional, defensive, and territorial.
How Does It Affect Each Person?
This transit will feel like an impulse to move after months of stagnation. But be careful: Cancer is reactive, and we may act based on emotions rather than strategy.
Keys to making the most of it:
Don’t rush. Use emotion as a driving force, but don’t let it control you.
Look at which house this is happening in your chart. That’s where Mars will ignite the fire.
Reflect on how you’ve been feeling these past months. What have you been holding back? This may now erupt.
The Collective Effect
This transit doesn’t just affect us individually. It also marks shifts in the world.
Themes that may emerge:
Protection and security: people strongly defending their boundaries.
Nationalism and territory: Cancer rules homeland and roots.
Emotional outbursts in social media and news: more visceral, less rational responses.
Mars has awakened. The inertia is over. Now, the question is not whether things will change. The question is: what will you do with this energy?
