Celebrity astrologer Kyle Thomas predicts that Mars retrograde in Cancer, starting January 6th, will bring challenges and emotional upheaval.
Mars leaves Leo and retrogrades back to Cancer on Jan. 6, a transit that celebrity astrologer Kyle Thomas tells PEOPLE can be 'difficult' for many at this time. The red planet is retrograding once again, leaving Leo and returning to Cancer on Jan. 6 where it initially resided at 17 degrees in October 2024. A retrograde is when a planet appears to be moving backward in the cosmos from our vantage point on Earth, however, it's simply an optical illusion to the naked eye.
Despite its lack of physical movement, its astrological effects can be felt quite significantly. Mars, in particular, turns retrograde approximately every two years (or 26 months) for around three months. However, due to its pre- and post-shadows, the complete duration of a Mars retrograde spans nearly seven months. Thomas tells PEOPLE exclusively that Mars retrogrades are'most intense' when they seemingly move back in the sky, though, he's sure to note that the'lead up and fade away' in the months before and after its peak'can still be felt' within us all. When a planet retrogrades, Thomas says 'the things that it rules tend to go awry' in addition to what is ruled by the sign it's entering. For Cancer, he says those themes include 'home, family, traditions, ancestors, domesticity, real estate and parents.' 'Cancer is also deeply tied to emotions,' he adds, explaining that the Mars retrograde in this zodiac sign could have us experience 'a delay' around the aforementioned themes or 'revisit situations and people' involved within those areas. Thomas also notes that Cancer has a tie to 'past lives,' therefore, he predicts that 'past life connections and karmic entanglements' could return to us during this time. He says Mars is also 'weakened' in this zodiac sign
