\"\"As an astrologer I am always looking for coincidences and interesting links, and the release of a huge solar flare<\/a> the day that Mars turned retrograde is one of those interesting connections. \u00a0Mars represents fire, enthusiasm, drive, it’s an aggressive force. \u00a0A solar flare comes from the Sun, but it is fiery in nature and the quality of the eruption has a Martian flare.<\/p>\n

From our perspective here on Earth, the electromagnetic energy from the solar flare could create havoc with telecommunications systems and the fact that Uranus, planet of electromagnetic energy, is in the sign of Aries now (ruled by Mars) suggests that an increase in electromagnetic anomalies would not be unexpected.<\/p>\n

There has been a great deal of fear of the collapse of the electromagnetic grid as part of the 2012 phenomenon which supposes that the Solar Max<\/a> period will occur in 2012, but the Solar Max is actually expected to take place in 2013 or 2014. \u00a0There is real astrological significance to those years because the cycle of Uranus in Aries squared by Pluto in Capricorn will be reaching its peak at that time.<\/p>\n

In any case, with Mars retrograde<\/a> our attention is turned to our own inner needs to assert ourselves and find a way to energize our desires and dreams. \u00a0The added fiery influence of the radiation from the solar storms may affect our own electromagnetic energy fields and perhaps we can find a way to harness that energy to assist us become more conscious of the way energy works in our mind\/body\/spirit system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
