They can sometimes even make people more accident-prone or physically exhausted.
All Mars retrogrades share some common themes, but no two cosmic reversals manifest the same way.
How Long Is This Mars Retrograde?

Mars retrograde kicked off on Dec. 6 at 6:33 p.m.
ET and itll wrap up on Feb. 23, 2025 at 9:00 p.m.
ET, meaning there are two and a half months of this Martian backspin to deal with it.

The post-retrograde shadow period begins once Mars stations direct on Feb. 23, and goes through May 1.
So, Whats To Come?
Instead, use this period to give a shot to reconnect with the things that light up your spirit.

How can you cultivate a deeper sense of self-confidence?
Have things been holding you back from fully expressing yourself creatively?
Is your pride keeping you from making progress on your ambitions?

What fuel is keeping the flames of your passion ablaze and is it sustainable?
How can you get more comfortable being open about how you feel and what you want?
These are themes to explore throughout this time.

You dont have to win (or even fight) every battle.
Rethink how youd like to approach your goals.
Working through your fears will make you a much more effective fighter.
