Cosmic beings, are you ready for a more mellow experience? This first full week of 2025 begins with a cosmic shift as Mars retrograde transitions into the nurturing waters of Cancer on January 6, inviting us to embrace a softer, more introspective approach to life’s challenges. After months of navigating Mars’ fiery, dramatic retrograde energy in Leo, this change signals a slowdown, giving us the space to connect with our emotions on a deeper level. While Cancer’s influence can stir up moodiness or passive-aggressiveness, it also empowers us to tune into our inner world, helping us better understand what our hearts truly desire. Use this time to practice patience with yourself and others, allowing feelings to flow naturally without judgment.
