Here is a look at the tidings of Mars in Cancer as it leaves Gemini after seven months.
March has been something of a busy month for astrology. At the beginning of the month, we had Mercury entering into Pisces, amplifying our inner voices, and then a full moon in Virgo. Then, we saw Saturn enter into Pisces and Venus returning home to Taurus. On the 18th, Mercury shifted into Aries, signifying a time of innovation and direct communication. Of course, one of the biggest events was the spring equinox on March 20th, signifying a time of balance as the days continue to get longer as we head toward the warmer months.

However, March has more in store. On the 23rd, we will see Pluto enter Aquarius for the first time since the 18th century, bringing about a period of revolution and renewal. And, on the 25th, Mars will enter Cancer. But what does this shift mean, and what changes does it have in store for us? Here is a look at the spiritual meaning of Mars in Cancer.
Mars is named after the Roman god of war. As a result, this planet embodies many of our warrior-like traits. It can reflect action taking precedence over words, and passion ruling over logic. Hot-headed and driven, Mars can cause trouble for us when we get too angry or obstinate, but it can also be a great asset when it comes to restoring our energy and willpower.
Cancer is known as a sentimental sign, being guided by the emotions and the heart. A cardinal water sign, it is associated with intuition, sensitivity and compassion. Cancer is also a sign associated with being somewhat closed off by its protective shell, and preferring the comforts of home to the outdoors or adventure.
So, Mars entering Cancer has a number of interesting applications. It is finally leaving Gemini after having been in this sign for seven months. This was a period where passions, action and possibly conflict were in the verbal realm, and we talked out our feelings, plans and concerns. Now, our battles are mainly going to be at home. This could be a period where we defend a close friend or family member and protect them. It could also mean home conflicts and passive aggression as well. It’s important to take the communication skills we’ve learned and put them to play, making sure we don’t carry resentments with us.
