Astro Alert: Mars Enters Pisces

On the 14th, Mars, the planet of action and confidence, enters Pisces, the sign of the dreamer, the poet, and the mystic. It’s an unlikely combo that can lower our energy levels, but heighten our intuition and our compassion for the next month and a half. This transit supports charitable actions, creative projects, and a fluid, adaptable way of pursuing what we desire.

Mars enters Pisces:
April 14 – May 24

After a spree through adventurous Aquarius, Mars - the planet of action and desire – shifts into otherworldly Pisces, slowing us down and refining our senses for the following month and a half. At the end of his cycle through the zodiac, Mars is introspective and intuitive rather than straightforward, supporting us to act based on our feelings and insights and to be adaptable, seeking to flow with life rather than to impose our own rhythm.

Even if we’re in the heart of spring, our energy levels might be lower than usual at this time and we might have more success with a flexible schedule than with a strict to-do list. It’s essential to have more moments of relaxation and escapism in the next month and a half and to embark on new projects with a sense of ease and inspiration. Before starting something, it might be essential to create the right state of mind for it: for example, if you feel unmotivated to finish a task, it might help to do a short meditation or to visualize the end result. 

Mars is a gentle warrior in Pisces, asking us to listen to our inner rhythm and to step lightly. As a challenge, it could predispose us to repress our desires, to always put others first, and to postpone action out of uncertainty. If you have these tendencies, be kind with yourself in the following month and a half and find compassionate ways to ask for what you want and to take action. If you have no problems with self-assertion, Mars in Pisces can be a soft influence that allows you to move forward in alignment with your intuition.

Those of us with strong Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces energy will benefit from the resources and encounter the challenges of this transit the most, but all of us will receive a boost of inspiration in the life area ruled by Pisces in the birth chart.
