What this retrograde invites
Mars is drive, desire, action, the way you move forward and defend yourself. When it goes retrograde, the energy turns more inward: not the time to rush or launch a great offensive, but to review your strategy, recover, understand where your anger or your wanting is really going.
A time to sharpen rather than strike. What is boiling asks to be heard and redirected, not smothered or poured out. You will set off truer when Mars resumes its course.
