Mars retrograde in Cancer

Mars retrograde in Cancer turns frustration inward and toward home. Family tensions surface, household projects stall and anger comes out indirectly. It suits addressing emotional grievances openly and repairing the home rather than starting new battles.

…and back into Gemini

Mars retrograde in Gemini scatters energy and sharpens arguments. Projects stall because attention is split, debates go in circles and travel plans are disrupted. It suits finishing half-done tasks and choosing which battles actually matter.

It begins in Scorpio season and ends in Aquarius season.

Also retrograde at the same time

  • Uranus in Pisces — Nov 15 to Nov 24, 2007 (9 days of overlap)
  • Saturn in Virgo — Dec 19 to Jan 30, 2008 (42 days of overlap)
  • Mercury in Aquarius — Jan 28 to Jan 30, 2008 (2 days of overlap)

Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Mars retrogrades either side of 2007

Previous

2005 Ended December 10, 2005 after 69 days, moving back 15.14° through the zodiac.

Next

2009 Begins December 20, 2009 and runs 80 days.

Both dates are computed from the planet’s apparent motion, not taken from a table. A retrograde begins the moment its daily movement against the stars turns negative, and that moment is findable to the hour.
