Planetary People: The Mars Machine & Eclipse Encounters 💥🔥

Mars said 😮‍💨🥵😤 ENERGY!

This is the fifth piece of the Planetary People series in the St. Petersburg Astrology Community. This series is an introduction to one of the seven traditional planets, and this will cover planetary significations, forms of dignity & debility through sign & house, and understanding how engaging with planets feels through an embodied approach. We are connecting our human bodies with the celestial bodies as we all move through the world. Planets are bodies, just as we are bodies, so let's get intimate with them.⁣ This series is loosely based on an article I wrote titled “Planetary People” and will go into greater depth as my embodied planetary relationships have grown with time and practice. ⁣

This is a two part meetup because we will begin with all of the Mars fire, and we will end with a look at the upcoming eclipses: Lunar Eclipse Full Moon in Pisces on September 17 and Solar Eclipse New Moon in Libra on October 2.

The Mars Machine is the time for Mars to shine, or perhaps burn would be the better word? Mars wants action, and this is the first malefic planet we will be meeting. Malefic planets represent the more challenging aspects of life, so expect things to get spicy! 💥🔥

We’re entering eclipse season! While the nodes are still in Aries & Libra, we are having the first eclipse on the Virgo/Pisces axis and the last eclipse in Libra for this cycle. This marks a major shift in the nodal story that’s been developing for the last year. We will reflect on the eclipses earlier this year and look at the next couple weeks of eclipse energy.

Bring your natal chart to reflect on how you embody the planets or to share your feelings on how they show up in your life. Reminder that all of our local meetups are free to attend! Come hang out, learn, make friends, and enjoy locally made kombucha 💛
