This year’s Mars transit through Virgo will teach the spiritual importance of meaningful labor and serve as a herald of the coming purification of the planet Earth; true natures will be revealed through the medium of service. The potent and dynamic energies that the planet Mars imparts will manifest in a variety of ways unique to the domain of Virgo and to the celestial composition of each one of us. There is opportunity, if properly aligned, for newfound progress and achievement to be obtained in the arenas of health, service, and spiritual growth. The retrograde begins during the twilight hours of January 24th and ends the same on April 14th of this revolutionary year of 2012. For those who seek maximum life success and heightened global awareness I welcome you to my intuitive analysis of Mars’ transit through the House of Virgo, beginning with its retrograde phase.
