Mars enters Pisces

Mars enters Pisces on 16 November 2018 NZT - the same day that Venus finally turns direct YAY.  Mars is the planet that represents our drive and motivation.  We have had Mars in Aquarius since May 2018 which has been a super long stay.  We have dealt with a lot of different people and groups with Mars in Aquarius.  We had a Mars retrograde in the middle of the year, which made everyone feel super lethargic.  Now we are shifting away from this super long stay of Mars and we are entering a more subtle and soft energy.  Mars in Pisces for the next 6-week stay is a great time to channel your emotional energy into creative pursuits like photography, music, poetry and being romantic.  It is a great time to get into yoga and meditation as we are more eager to connect with our higher self.  It can be a very emotional time, therefore it is important to channel emotions constructively.  We are more open to heal wounded parts of ourselves with Mars' influence as the past will be stirred up.  The flip side to this energy can make people turn to addiction and substance abuse if you do not channel this energy more positively.  Energy levels won't be overly high, however water sports are highly favoured (surfing, swimming, kayaking).  We will experience Mars squaring a lot of the Sagittarius energy over the next 6 weeks.  What does this mean?  We can feel a bit confused in terms of what we believe to be true.  To get a better understanding, feel free to book in a reading.
