Mars will be in Aquarius through April 5th, putting some with Sun or Mars in air signs (Aquarius, Libra, Gemini) in an experimental mood when it comes to the pursuit of desires. Aquarius puts Mars, the planet of action, into a mode of airy detachment, and this lifting up out of earthy Capricorn creates an observation deck above the maddening crowd. Aquarius in Mars brings to light patterns of ideas, so innovative solutions can be hatched.

Mars' sojourn in Aquarius also puts focus on the tribe, posse or group we belong to, and how it serves our individual goals. We can see where we fit into the community, and we may be drawn to working toward a cause with others. Named for the God of War, Mars stirs the will to act, and when tempered by the compassion of Aquarius, could inspire both random acts of kindness and a desire to fiercely protect the weak and vulnerable.
