The cosmic clock ticking, as planets pursue their motion and form celestial patterns, provides a flavor, a meaning, or a message for each passing moment in time. Among these transits, the Mars synod on Dec.7 at when the Sun reaches an opposition to retrograding Mars is regarded by, astrologers as as a momentous event which colors the period around it.
The study mentioned in the news was published on 12th Dec. 2022 just five days after the Mars synod. A chart for the synod drawn for the co-ordinates of Ohio State University has the Sun-Moon-Mars-Jupiter-Neptune T-square aligned with the angles.
As with many challenging planetary pairings, Mars and Neptune have very different gifts. Mars represents the principle of individual action and swift force — its nature is self-motivated, unambiguous, direct, and purposeful. And Neptune isn’t just about lies and deception. That is merely its lower, more earth-bound and shadow side. Working in tandem with Mars, Neptune refines the attributes of Mars, softening the competitive edge, the will to assert one’s desires, and the instinct to win. Neptune helps us to envision a far better world filled with a desire to alleviate suffering, transcend self-serving egotism, and cultivate compassion for all.
Astrologer Adam Gainsburg has described the solar opposition phase of Mars as initiating us into a radical commitment to our authentic vision, as well as reframing the meaningful motivation of Mars from being all about one’s own needs into serving societal needs.
