Mars Retrograde

by PRAMA CHOPRA | May 31, 2023

Mars retrograde refers to the apparent backward motion of the planet Mars in its orbit around the Sun, as observed from Earth. Retrograde motion is an optical illusion that occurs when a faster-moving planet, such as Earth, overtakes a slower-moving planet, such as Mars. During this time, Mars appears to move backward in the sky for a certain period before resuming its normal forward motion.

Astrologically, Mars retrograde is often associated with themes related to energy, assertiveness, motivation, and taking action. It is believed to be a time of reassessment and reflection on how we channel our energy and pursue our goals. Some people who follow astrology may pay attention to Mars retrograde and consider its potential influence on their experiences and decision-making, particularly in matters of ambition, and conflict. However, it’s important to note that the interpretation of astrological events and their impact varies among individuals and astrologers.
