As Mercury retrogrades back into a square to Saturn in Aquarius, the Sun joins it halfway through its retrograde, bringing with it insights into hidden motivations. Jupiter is also halfway through its retrograde opposite in Taurus, bringing further insights and clarity. Yet mid-points are not end points and we shouldn’t draw any conclusions.

Mars is finding its strength in Cancer while retrograde, fuelling up again after being depleted. It’s time for round two.
We’re more likely to see extremes as Mars retrogrades in Cancer, in all kinds of spheres, including in weather forecasts and fighting wars. Rahu’s aspect from Pisces, which is itself conjunct Neptune, adds further extremes in water-related damage and confusion.
