Sagittarius Sagittarius

Mars retrograde in Leo is here to tell you that, “finishing a project is the ultimate act of creative bravery” (@inspired to write). All fire signs arrive on planet Earth with a special sense of destiny. You were born to deliver teachings of truth. If there is something you got started, now is the time to circle back and finish it. Action Mars is motoring back through fellow fire sign Leo in your house of higher wisdom and has you reaching into your depths for the inspiration to need to get your arms all the way around a half-baked plan. You may also be feeling pulled toward various international locations that have been places on the map where you once lived in another lifetime. Whether you are reading about it, writing about it or boarding a plane to get there, you are feeling drawn to cultures far beyond your own country of origin. Mars is lighting a fire of desire within you to re-explore landscapes where your gypsy Soul once roamed long ago. This pull may also be connected to philosophical and spiritual studies that energize that same feeling of wandering into wide-open spaces that allow for endless study and personal growth. Retreat into those lands again and it will provide an abundance of faith in your unfolding higher purpose. Mars will remain retrograde in Leo until Jan. 6, when it backs into Cancer again. Mars returns to Leo to rekindle your Soul jets in mid-April through mid-June, which is a key timeline to consider for expanding your creative reach with the work that you do. Use the retrograde of Mars and its recovery of lost footsteps to resurrect any idle content that was once tabled and shelved but is brewing for greatness. Mercury is moving direct within your sign as well, so those mental wheels are back in gear and moving forward once again. Even if something is a work in progress, at least it will feel like progress, which will activate its own kind of wind. Your ruler Jupiter in your opposite sign of Gemini is in heavenly harmony with Venus in Aquarius at the onset of this Starcast, giving rise to stimulating exchanges and time spent with some of your favorite people. The energy has a natural dip post-Christmas as you experience the inner stretch that the New Year is destined to bring, so keep life simple at that time with your thoughts on sunrises that give you yet another day to begin again.
