January 8 - January 14, 2018
As he spends his last full week in your relationship sector Mars, warrior planet of the cosmos is speeding ahead of Jupiter, who is at the same time slowing down. It is that combination of Mars racing forward and Jupiter slowing down ahead of a retrograde turn in early March, that is widening the gap. The two began last week aligned, with Jupiter's longer term focus merged with Mars' more urgent focus. The distance between them will widen by the day, creating a clear distinction between what you need to fight for now and what needs to be part of the journey itself. At the same time, while Mars will continue to fire up your passions and fighting spirit until he leaves later next week, knowing that Jupiter is here for the majority of the year takes away from a need to finalise anything. Whether single, in a relationship or between relationships, Mars is focused on getting you to fight for what you want.
