There are a few things to mention about this year’s Mars Rx phase starting  September 9^th lasting until November 13^th rolling back from 28*08’ Aries to 15*14’ Aries.

During its retrograde period a number of interesting facts have to be acknowledged on global and individual levels.

When Mars turns retrograde this time all outer Planets will be in Rx motion overruling inner balance leading to projection during stress and conflict. Personal act will be increasingly guided by projective measures.

This phase will last from September 9^th till 12^th which can lead to stress and low trigger events on individual levels also encourages raised reflexes regarding environmental current.

At this point Mars is closing in on Earth to a distance of max 62.07 Million Km by October 6^th which is at 92.8% of its closest possible approach (last on August 27^th 2003 at 57.6 million km).

This close distance is generally known to create unusual weather conditions in reference to given climate and season. A raised amount of natural fires as well as raised temperatures and increased Hurricane and Storm activity. Furthermore, we likely face a strong tectonic shifting especially during moon phases opposite, square or in conjunct with the current Mars placement and especially during the phase between October 12th and 19^th when the Sun opposes Mars in reference to Earth.

The dates of unusual natural pressure occur as followed:

September 13^th weak

September 19^th

September 25^th strong

October 2^nd strong

October 10^th strong

October 16^th very strong

October 22^nd very strong

October 29^th

November 5^th and 6^th strong

November 12^th

The close Mars transit increases martial impulsive activity similar to Pluto’s theme but rather explosive and physically active. A close Mars transit represents strength and its expression ready to prove it.

Mars will realign in a square with Saturn between September 24^th and October 9^th, conjoin with Eris by September 28^th until November 9^th and build another square with Pluto between October 4^th – 13^th.

This will create martial aggravation and retaliation at high range during the entire period and need to be acknowledged within all social activities throughout these 3 weeks. Especially between October 4^th and 9^th we will experience rugged and pressured readiness for escalation.
