Have you been feeling a little out of sorts lately? Perhaps, as usual, it could have something to do with the stars. Cosmic events can have a bigger impact on our energy levels than we might expect, which ends up making an impact on all other areas of our lives. Mars in particular can have a major effect on our energy levels because it affects our drive, passion, and motivation. On December 19, Mars moved into the sign of Pisces, a very adaptable sign that likes to go with the flow. Pisces is also highly sensitive to their environment, so this can make facing certain obstacles more challenging for Pisces than other signs. Here’s how Mars in Pisces can affect your mood and your energy.
- You’ll be more inclined to just “go with the flow.”
Even if you’re usually a planner, you might shy away from that behavior while Mars is in Pisces. The influence of Mars can sometimes lead people to become more organized and driven, but when Mars is in Pisces, the opposite is true. It can be tough, especially in the middle of winter, to work up the energy to organize and plan as usual, but just setting aside a few minutes each day to make to do lists and take stock of your responsibilities can be extremely helpful.
- You’ll feel more passive about the direction of your life.
Mars can often make one feel more “active” about the way they approach their life-they might feel more motivated to change things and decide to take their life into their own hands. However, Mars in Pisces can actually inspire a passive approach. You might feel that there’s no point in trying to gain control over things that you feel are out of your reach, and you’re more likely to “let things happen” rather than trying to “make things happen.”
- You’ll need a creative outlet.
When the influence of Pisces is strong, people often feel drawn to the arts and any form of creative expression. Don’t stifle that urge! You should pursue whatever form of art that calls out to you and inspires you. Set aside time for yourself to explore your ideas and see what you create! It could be a good time to try something new and get into an art form that you’ve never considered before. You might end up discovering a new talent that you never realized you had within you.
- Your energy levels will fluctuate unpredictably.
As previously mentioned, Mars has a big impact on how energetic we feel throughout the day. When Mars is in Pisces, a sign that often struggles with maintaining their energy levels, you might also feel drained or extremely motivated at seemingly random times. Do your best to get eight hours of sleep, drink plenty of water, eat healthy foods, and get a little exercise each day, even if it’s just going for a short walk. This is especially important at this time of year, so take care of yourself!
