With your ruler Mars retrograding in your area of self-expression, this is a powerful time to heal any emotional trauma that may be blocking your full expression of your emotions. Aries, this retrograde also activates your pleasure, passion, and inner child healing, bringing up experiences tied to your sense of confidence and playfulness. You may find yourself reflecting on past creative projects, romantic experiences, or even how you allow yourself to have fun. Instead of getting frustrated, take a deep breath and reconnect with the parts of you that crave lightness and joy. Journaling and creative outlets can help you process what you’re feeling in a way that feels both grounding and freeing.
