Solar return Mercury in tension with Mars

Thought and effort tend to run at different speeds in a year with Mercury and Mars in tension. Ideas can arrive faster than the means to act on them, or action can get ahead of planning, and the year often turns on matching one pace to the other.

About this page

The reading above rests on the established meanings of the planets, signs and houses involved, not on a passage from an older source, and was approved before publication. Anything below it is interpretation and context rather than a claim about what a source says.

Astrology is a tradition of interpretation, not a body of established fact. A transit or a solar return describes a tendency the tradition reads into a period; it predicts nothing.
