We are charging full speed ahead into Aries season with the Sun blazing through the first sign of the zodiac! Aries, being the bold and fiery cardinal sign that it is, thrives on fresh starts. But when things aren’t moving fast enough? Stress kicks in. The good news? That spark of new energy you’ve been craving is already on its way!
Now, let’s talk about what’s happening in the sky because Aries season isn’t just about the Sun, it’s bringing some serious astrological shifts with it. We’ve got Mercury, Venus, and Chiron all in Retrograde in Aries right now, and each of these transits has a message for us.
Mercury Retrograde in Aries: Pump the Brakes!
Mercury in Aries loves speed, fast thinking, fast talking, fast action. But when it’s in retrograde? That’s the Universe throwing up a big “SLOW DOWN” sign. If you’ve been impatiently waiting for things to move forward in the area of your chart where Aries sits, Mercury Rx is saying: “Yes, changes are coming, but you need patience.” Easier said than done for Aries energy, right? But trust me, resisting this slowdown will only lead to frustration.
Venus Retrograde in Aries: What Do You Really Value?
While Mercury asks us to slow down, Venus in Aries retrograde is putting our values under review. This isn’t just about love, it’s about everything Venus rules: relationships, finances, beauty, pleasure, and self-worth. Where Aries lands in your chart is where you need to reassess what truly matters. Are you rushing into love? Overspending on things that don’t actually bring you joy? Ignoring your self-care? Pay attention!
A real-life example? Aries rules over the adrenal glands, and when we don’t slow down (Mercury Rx), we put stress on our bodies. That means honoring Venus Rx by prioritizing relaxation, self-care, and not constantly being in fight-or-flight mode. Your body, mind, and soul will thank you.
Chiron in Aries: Where Have You Lost Your Fire?
Chiron, the wounded healer, is still making its way through Aries, and this transit asks some tough but necessary questions:
- Where have you lost your bravery?
- Where have you been afraid to assert yourself?
- Are you holding back your true desires just to please others?
This is your moment to reclaim your power. If you’ve been playing small or letting fear hold you back, Aries season (and especially this retrograde period) is your chance to heal, reset, and come back stronger.
Final Thoughts: Embrace the Energy!
Yes, Aries season is about action, but right now, the cosmos is saying: “Before you charge ahead, check in with yourself.” What are you pushing too hard? What needs a realignment? Use this time wisely, and when things start moving forward again (and they WILL), you’ll be ready to hit the ground running, Aries-style!
Wishing you a bold, brave, and balanced Aries season!
