This can be a rather fiery transit, since everything to do with Mars has a hot edge to it. Mercury is, of course, the mind planet and, when it’s ‘reversing’ over your Mars, it can mean that an old argument rears its head again or old dramas come back for another go. However, there’s an upside: talking things through (again!) might be what you need to settle a dispute and for everyone to stop bickering. Mars is the ‘forwards motion’ in the sky so this cycle can also be a time when it’s harder to forge ahead. Patience is called for.
To get the most out of this transit, use it to sort through an upset – but this time, handle it with more finesse. This is also an optimal time to get back into a sport you’d dropped in the past.
