Philip Sedgwick - SkyScraping: Mars Trips the Galactic Fantastic 12 Jun 2025
Mars enters Virgo next week - 17 June @ 08:35 Z (GMT) to be precise as mandated by the sign it enters - a zodiacal vantage that ensures furrows in the field are straight and properly plowed. Praise Ceres, his zodiacal neighbor. Venturing through Virgo, here he remains until his Libran ingress on 6 August @ 23:23 GMT,
Actually, with not a lot of thought, it makes sense that Mars enjoys transiting Virgo. Investing daily energy into progressive steps is, well progressive. Mars loves progress, especially progress that happens swiftly and with relative ease. While in Virgo, all essential sequences for moving forward require immediate attention and full documentation. It is about crossing ts, and dotting is. Dont forget to include me, shouts all of the js, Eris is in Aries, you know!
So, an interesting aside note here in case any of you would like a positive, fun distraction. There is a most unique feature film, MARS, created by Jeff Marslett. If you want to get the down and dirty facts about life on Mars, this film presents an enjoyable scenario as to how that could have come about... in a distinct Virgo manner. Its a fun watch, if youre inclined.
Back to facts and details.
During his Virgo visitation, Mars engages a series of superclusters by conjunction. Because of the size and density of superclusters, the influence of these transits is not limited to the day of exactitude. Figure from late June through 15 July the transits influence the perfection of all real world activity, including but not limited to outreach in social media, online in any form and all engagements that one chooses to pursue that further the causes of creating better straits for all and access to all required life services. Virgo is about service, after all.
Here are the days Mars reaches partile conjunction for these superclusters:
Leo Supercluster 3 July
Sextans Supercluster 5 July
Coma Supercluster 8 July
Vela Supercluster 10 July
In the interest of simplicity and conciseness, here are aggregate effects of these transits:
There is a push for pure confidence and positive self declaration.
Releasing addiction to perfection leads to the acceptance of nominal and optimal as positive concepts, for all real world applications
Hone in on lodestar navigation. Determine correct direction. Stay on your path, know your altitude and do not exceed known operational limits. Do all your own work.
Affirm recently discovered attributes to yourself while gazing in a mirror. Literally and figuratively, do the best self reflection you can. Why not brush your hair to perfect coiffing while youre at it?
Constellate life. Connect all dots. Leave no relevant fact unconsidered. Defeat the devil (who loves to live in the details) by remaining consciously vigilant regarding all details.
Reality check truths. Source your thought processes.
Life is not a game of Soduku, no matter how good your score.
Next, on 11 July, Mars squares the Great Attractor. As such:
What new learning occurred in the past week or so?
You want to be included in life, right? First, consider any shunning, discarding, judgments you may have unwittingly cast upon others. If these people can assist your purposes, invite them to join in, provide a clear directive of what you intend to do, and support them in following along. If they cannot directly support your objectives, get out of their way. Verify that you conspire to create no impedance for others to encounter.
This is an optimal time to assess what you need to know that is not in your knowledge profile to accomplish tasks at hand, and more, how can you go about acquiring those facts?
Judge not. Exclude no one. This is especially true the last five days of July.
As 1 August rolls around, Mars squares the Galactic Center. This transit lasts pretty much the last week of July and the first week of August. Set yourself aside, away from all the noise and nonsense. Ground your being to the planet, enjoying the rich influence of gravity. Then, imitate tall trees. Remain rooted. Reach with an open mind to the heavens. Progressive ideas, many of those ideas exceeding emotional comfort zones, pour through the Galactic Center portal and are at the disposal of all who download, install and open the galactic apps.
Clear outdated ideas and scrub up the mental container where you accept new ideas into your being. Maybe do some of these sessions while speaking to yourself and record it. Listening back through those recordings, the second and third times can be so revelatory in terms of what was not heard. With Mars in quadrature to the Galactic Center, what can be heard now that we couldnt hear before? Give thanks each and every time a recognizable insight drops in your figurative lap.
Forewarned is forearmed. Any job worth doing is worth doing right. Now must be the time to engage this task as it is now that this task appears. With a modicum of compliance, this Mars in Virgo thing increases efficiency in life and when it does that, energy rises to fulfill the needs of completing essential tasks.
More soon.

(5,175 posts)I have natal mars in virgo 12th house (health issues) and cluster of planets in Leo 11th house. Auspicious. Good time for heart surgery.
Now is a good time to make fear and pain allies, they are warning systems, not torture devices.

Our troubles really are our strengths when we realize they have been there to protect us all along.
