The next two months are going to be crazy.
Each and every one of us carries a warrior within. Mars rules that warrior in astrology. This is the planet of drive, combat, action, and aggression, emphasizing how we access our primal instincts. Nothing can stop us when the gladiator of our galaxy activates our will to win. You’ve come to the right place if you’re wondering how Mars in Virgo will affect each zodiac sign.
The zodiac sign Virgo is highly intelligent, analytical, productive, and service-oriented. Mars’ entry into Virgo on July 10 will encourage us to go for extra credit and put in the extra effort. It will also encourage you to consume as much information as possible, soaking it up like a sponge. You will also be more motivated to help others, build something from the ground up, and go out of your way to please your partner in bed. After all, Mars rules over primal sexuality, and Virgo is a very generous lover who strives to please. As Mars joins the North Node in Taurus at exactly 0 degrees on July 11, it’s clear that this transit is assisting us in achieving some of our deepest desires.
However, let us not forget that Mars is a malevolent planet that stirs the pot, promotes grind culture, and revels in conflict. Not to mention that Virgo is a highly critical zodiac sign that enjoys pointing out flaws. On July 20, Mars will form an opposition with Saturn retrograde in Pisces, forcing you to slow down, check in with your ego, and rethink your methods. You’re discovering what you’re willing—and unwilling—to do. Fortunately, on August 11, Mars forms a trine with Jupiter in Taurus, providing us with enough positive reinforcement to keep going.
Around August 22, Mars will form an opposition with Neptune retrograde in Pisces, encouraging us to go inward and rejuvenate our immune systems. Mercury, Virgo’s planetary ruler, will station retrograde just one day later, causing communications to fail and papers to jam. Hold on, because Mars will help you tap into your deepest reservoir of strength and resilience on August 24 when it forms one final trine with Pluto retrograde in Capricorn.
Ready, set, go! According to your sun and/or rising sign, here’s how Mars in Virgo may affect you:
How Mars in Virgo Will Affect Each Zodiac Sign
Aries ♈
Mars in Virgo will activate your sixth house of health and daily routine, making you feel more productive and inspired to get to work. Even if you’re prone to pushing yourself to the limit, don’t overwork yourself before you’ve refilled your tank. Take care not to overburden your work plate with reckless abandon, as drama at your day job could easily unfold.
Taurus ♉
Mars in Virgo has you feeling a certain way, baby. After all, you’re turning on your mojo and activating your fifth house of fun and games. There has never been a better time to pursue creative hobbies. It’s also an excellent time to meet hotties. Just be careful not to overdo it and fall in love with something that hasn’t yet earned your long-term commitment. Also, if you’re trying not to get pregnant, you should definitely use protection. If you are, this is your opportunity to go for two pink lines.
Gemini ♊
It’s understandable if you’ve started arguing with family members and feeling frustrated at home. Mars in Virgo will amp up the heated debate in your fourth house of domestic affairs. It’s a wonderful time to address family-related issues head on. It’s also a great time to focus on sprucing up your living space and spending time with close and trusted loved ones.
Cancer ♋
Consider your words carefully, especially while Mars is in Virgo. With the planet of war transiting your third house of communications and close social circles, you’re bound to express your displeasure in some way. Take care not to sound harsher than you intended. That doesn’t mean you have to apologize for standing up for yourself. Allow this transit to demonstrate the importance of communicating your needs without causing unnecessary pain.
Leo ♌
With Mars in your second house of material wealth and self-worth, you may be judging yourself by the number of digits in your bank account. You may feel a new level of drive and motivation to increase your earnings and make purchases that make you feel pampered and supported over the next two months. Avoid comparing yourself to others because you are not seeing the whole picture. Find ways to be grateful wherever you can.
Virgo ♍
Wake up, sunshine. Mars is moving into your first house of self, encouraging you to assert yourself and reclaim your identity. If you’ve been feeling sleepy and disconnected from the world, Mars is about to become your personal life coach. It’s time to face your fears, defend your authenticity, and fight for the life you want. Keep in mind, however, that Mars will most likely increase your temper, so find ways to stay cool when your head gets too hot.
Libra ♎
With Mars leaving your 12th house of solitude and spirituality, you may feel as if you are turning off the engines and closing the garage door. Your stamina may be low because you need time to process some of the victories and losses you’ve received over the last two years. Remove your ego from these experiences, as you will have learned far more from your failures than your successes. Allow yourself some time to reflect.
Scorpio ♏
Mars in Virgo is about to strike your 11th house of hopes, dreams, and visions, making you feel very aspirational. It also considers the impact you want to have on your community and the world at large. You might get into some social media debates and dramas, but you’ll find twice as many supporters and ardent admirers. Use the power of your extended circle to your advantage, because your network truly is your net worth.
Sagittarius ♐
Mars is marshaling the troops through your 10th house of publicity and career goals, so channel your inner Miranda Priestley. For the next two months, you may feel extremely motivated, making this an ideal time to take on leadership roles, commit to new responsibilities, and get promoted. However, keep in mind that the head that wears the crown is heavy, so don’t let arrogance or soulless ambition cloud your judgment. When constructive criticism is warranted, listen to it and accept responsibility.
Capricorn ♑
Whether you’re ready or not, Mars in Virgo is about to take you on a wild and dizzying adventure. You’re in the mood to broaden your horizons through educational pursuits and mind-blowing new experiences as the planet of passion powers up your ninth house of expansion and wisdom. Allow yourself to become an academic as well as an adrenaline junkie, because Mars in Virgo has you feeling like a pirate about to set sail for the open sea.
Aquarius ♒
Are you ready to learn a little secret? Mars is slithering into the shadows of your eighth house of intimacy and taboos, so there’s more where that came from. You’re ready to make long-term spiritual and financial commitments, but you must be prepared to make the necessary sacrifices and investments. There are only so many things you can and cannot control, so surrender to the uncertainty of a transformation.
Pisces ♓
Your one-on-one relationships will be especially revealing over the next two months. You may find yourself going toe-to-toe with an adversary as Mars picks fights in your seventh house of allies and enemies. Whether your adversary is a coworker or a loving spouse who is constantly irritating you, this transit will show you how to both match and diffuse conflict. Even more importantly, it wants you to learn how to distinguish between the two.
