Mars, the planet of action, energy and tensions, goes retrograde in Cancer from 6 January 2025 to 24 February 2025. This period is ideal for reviewing our relationships with the past, resolving family issues and redefining our priorities. When Mars returns to its proper course, it will give us the opportunity to implement the changes we planned during its retrograde. Remember that it is in a falling sign, so energy will be slightly suppressed, especially when it comes to emotion. Vengeful tendencies will be evident, all around us. This astrological influence can be skewed in favour of those who channel their energy creatively, investing time in artistic activities.
