Retro Mars period: October 30, 2022 — January 12, 2023
So, on October 30, 2022,
Mars will retrograde at 26th degrees Gemini, go all the way back to Gemini's 9th degree to embark on an aerial journey again sign.
The loop that will affect Mars with its retrograde (from the 9th to the 27th degree of Gemini) will begin on September 4, 2022 and end on March 20, 2023, that is, in fact, we will be in this a period when you will have to review the past
and return to what is unfinished.
If Mars is powerful or important on your map, this period is especially important for you: you can change your life by reviewing past experiences and correcting past mistakes. Your actions will now be repeated, or you will turn to past experience to get what you want.
Mars's retrograde slows down activity and
makes it impossible to move forward at the usual pace. The “back door” forces you to rework and review the past, keep on doing what you started, revise your business strategies, or just wait for better times.
In fact, Mars does not like sudden movements in its retro movement. Activity slows down or stops, and attempts to start running abruptly and aggressively end not very pleasantly: it's like running on smooth ice. Do you know what the metaphor is? Be more careful during this period!
Mars retrograde period in Gemini: what to expect?
“Measure seven times, cut once!” A good motto for Mars's upcoming retrograde journey. In fact, Mars in Gemini
is not very strong for itself.
This is a time when people talk and communicate a lot, but in fact these conversations are often empty, or quiet and sweet conversations have every chance of developing into ardent arguments
with attempts prove your case at all costs.
At this time, a lot of information usually appears, and people are determined to absorb it and transmit it further at cosmic speed, but the thing is that most of this information and the news will either be repeated or will not carry any serious semantic seed.
Moreover, retrograde will also add to old information: some old facts may come up, people will return to old topics, some old disputes and negotiations may resume, discussions. It's just that analyzing the old and the past will not hurt!
Now you should be very careful about everything you hear or read. Information distortions can be quite serious, and the news will sound like a “broken phone”. Therefore, it is now important to include critical thinking, analyzing and comparing what you have already heard or read before.
Retro Mars in Gemini: important transits of the period
1.
Mars is in opposition to the Sun approximately halfway through its retrograde journey, on December 8, 2022. This is usually a rather tense time, when the general atmosphere becomes tense, a wave of aggression and negativity, and high-profile events related to disagreements, disputes, conflicts, and grievances rise.
Simple remarks or disrespectful treatment can result in serious conflict, including assault (Mars will not stand on ceremony). Fears can take a back seat when it comes to honor, hurt by ego. Be careful, especially in mid-December 2022 with harsh remarks and being too brazen.
Remember that your attacks or loud statements can lead to serious conflict situations. If you're interested, read about the murder of teacher Samuel Pati on October 16, 2020 in France, when Mars last stood in front of the Sun.

The second difficult transit of Mars in retrograde motion this season is the square with Neptune. This square will be accurate on October 12, 2022, then retrograde back on November 19, 2022, and again on March 15, 2023.
So this transit loop will take place for six months! This transit is associated with deception, hypocrisy, hidden actions and forces, confusion, chaos, mistakes in actions and decisions.
The information that will appear during this period will be very doubtful, inaccurate, or some strange facts will come to light. In general, it is better not to believe anyone or anything near this transit.
Retro Mars makes us go back to the past, and the air element can bring up some data from the past. But it is not a fact that everything will immediately become clear and understandable to you. It is possible that the true truth will be revealed only after Mars leaves the Gemini sign in March 2023.
