Mars has begun its 45-day transit through sidereal Virgo on 18th August 2023 and will remain there till 3rd October, 2023.

Mars is the do-er among all the planets. The red planet is the ruler of action, energy, blood, brotherhood, accidents, fire, passion, courage, aggression and even war.

Positively, Virgo can be observant, logical, hard-working, intelligent, precise, dependable and kind-hearted.

Negatively, Virgo can be aloof, pessimistic, judgemental, self-righteous, fault-finding, anxious and overbearing.

How can we make the best use of passionate Mars being in thoughtful Virgo?

  • A good phase to channelise your energy on keeping things in a neat and orderly way. 
  • Time to pay heed to your daily routine and focus on your health and overall well-being.
  • You care about minor details but it does not help to keep worrying about other people.
  • Mars will fuel your passion and make you take bigger strides in your career.
  • This period can cause friction, if you become over-critical or negative.

  

  What is the key message during this time?

Suppose you planned on losing 1 kg in 1 week, by doing 30 mins of skipping every day. Let us say you just managed to do 15 mins on some days and lost 0.3 kgs. You must not get dejected and give-up entirely. You may reach your target later than you thought but at least you will reach it.

Strike a balance between Action and Analysis. Also understand the difference between:

  • Organising v/s Obsessing
  • Caring v/s People-pleasing
  • Asserting v/s Dominating

It is more important to keep moving forward slowly, instead of waiting for ideal situations.
