Mars, the planet of gumption and drive, enters the zodiac sign of Virgo on June 17th. This is bound to make you more industrious, organized, and even hypercritical but there's more to Virgo than just that. Of all twelve signs in the zodiac, only Virgo depicts a woman. That's saying a lot considering that Astrology has been around for over 2500 years. Virgo has always been depicted as a woman – especially an unmarried woman – living in a man's world. Mars in this placement is going to champion women's rights – along with the rights of anyone else who feels ignored, oppressed, or disenfranchised. Mars expresses strength in the sign that it's passing through. While other signs outmuscle, intimidate, or resist – Virgo outwits. Look for that area in your life where you feel held back or put down and use your head instead of your anger. Mars in Virgo emphasizes shrewdness which means that where there's a wile, there's a way. Mars will be in Virgo from June 17th until August 6th.
