Mars turns DIRECT! Return of Will Power and Energy: January 12

Vedic astrologer Joni Patry says Mars turns direct January 12 after going retrograde in October, restoring personal energy and willpower. Mars stations near the fixed star Aldebaran in Taurus, which may intensify global conflict. It moves through Gemini until May 10, then Cancer, where it's debilitated and affects real estate.

Hi, I'm Joni Petrie, and welcome to my YouTube channel. Well, today I want to talk about Mars going direct, because it's soon to go direct January 12th. And what does that mean for us all? Well, let me just say this. Mars went retrograde October 30th. And since that point in time, haven't you kind of felt like your energy levels been lower than average? Well, I can say it's true for me, because Mars represents what energy, and all of us have been sort of like, lacking energy while Mars is retrograde. So I've got news for you. You. It's about to go direct January 12th. You're going to find that energetically, you're going to feel more energized and things will start to move forward. But I hope during this Mars retrograde that you have learned a lot about yourself, because what retrogrades do is they bring things back for us to reassess and learn from.
Mars being retrograde. Mars is also the planet that rules anger. And yes, many things from our past that we have particularly been angry about have come up and been surfacing. So we've had to look deep into ourselves for a healing. But now that the work is pretty much over and done with, we can now move forward. So I want to say watch how your energy, your courage, your excitement, your willpower, Mars rules. Willpower starts to return in a whole different way. This is exciting to look forward to. So that workout plan that you've been postponing, you can get going with it again. Why? Because now you have not only the energy, but the willpower and drive and ambition to do this. This is wonderful. I love Mars finally going direct. Besides this deep, dark stuff that it's put us through and the anger that its surface, I'm ready to move on from. And we will, all of us will, even as a nation, as a world, as humanity. That's what's important, too. But Mars is still going to remain in the sign of Taurus. So Mars hasn't liked being in Taurus too much. And as it's stationing around the 12th, realize that it's somewhere around 14 degrees of Taurus. This is just about 2 degrees off of the fixed star Aldebaran, which is called the red one, the eye of the bull. It's angry, it's feisty, and mainly possibly because it sits right opposite the fixed star Antares, star of war. Mars stationing when it stands still. Well, a station is actually when it changes direction, because in that process, it pretty much stands still. So it's going from retrograde, so it's been going backwards, backwards, backwards. And it's got to stop order to move forward, you see. So those degrees that it pretty much stands still on, which will be around 12 January, are vital and potent. And when it conjoins some major fixed stars like this one does, rest assured there's going to be some blow ups concerning what Mars is all about, which is what? War. So if you think the war in the Ukraine or wars in other portions of the world, maybe dealing with China, all these other places, North Korea, people are going to start.
Rallying up because Mars is stationed with these stars. This is power, this is anger. Big things are happening around the world while Mars stations because Mars becomes more powerful when it's standing still. So if you think the anger and the war and the frustration are going to go away the minute Mars turns direct, think again, because it's standing still at a very, very treacherous part of the zodiac. But once we get Mars moving forward, and let me just say by March 12, it's going to leave the sign of Taurus and move forward finally into the sign of Gemini, where it will stay by around May 10th. And while it's in Gemini, it's going to really stir up things concerning.
Communications, Internet, how we connect to one another. If you think that what we've been learning about.
The cahoots of the world and how they're controlling the media, we haven't seen nothing yet. Watch what happens when Mars goes through the sign of Gemini. Now it's going to be picking up some speed here. So it's not like it's stationing in retrograde, stirring up all this past hurt and pain and things that it did while it was in Taurus, now it's in Gemini. And things have to progress. Things concerning travel too. What's been going on, possibly with the Internet, with airlines, with computer work, things have to be attested and probably the things with the airlines, Southwest Airlines, all these things, things are going to be worked on. But there's still some issues and problems that need to be solved while Mars goes through the sign of Gemini. And if you've watched any of my previous videos, I do see where the sign of Gemini, particularly when Mars first enters Gemini, which will be around 12th, things are going to really stir up with China because Xi Jinping has his son there at zero degrees of Gemini. So you're going to see things with China come to the forefront. Anger, frustration, rage, war, major problems around the world. But China is going to be at the essence of what's probably going on. Watch and see then as we just follow Mars down the path. Around July 1, Mars is going to go into the sign of cancer where it's going to be there for about two months. So Mars will actually. No, it's going to be in cancer beginning May, around May 10 till July 1.
And this will affect the housing markets because what a lot of people don't realize in Vedic astrology, Mars rules real estate, go figure. But it truly does.
And with Mars being in the sign of cancer, it's actually its debilitation sign, which means its weakest, which means things are going to really come down with the housing markets. Not in a good way, but I think it's a way that's going to change the predicament of how the markets are and change the world. And in terms of real estate, can we afford things? All of those things are going to change and I think in the long run it makes it better. So don't worry too much about this. But you're going to see that that's going to be the focus from May till July. So throughout the month of June, major effects with the economy and everything are about to be staged and blow up in a whole different way. I don't think it's a bad way, but we're gonna see this is going to be the most transformative time of the year because of the Jupiter Rahu conjunction that happens around June 2nd. Get ready. Mars being where it's going to be tells the story of the unfoldment of the communications and everything dealing with probably the corruption that's been going on worldwide all always. Mars is going to stir things up. But the one thing I want you to remember for yourself individually, your energy levels are going to come back, your drive, your ambition are going to come back. So 2023 is going to get started on a bum note for the first five months and after that you're going to see things change for the better. But personally.
Going to enjoy a much better wave of energy through my physical body and you should too. So let's get ready for Mars as it turns direct. But most of all, prepare. There's going to be some things that happen worldwide, but it's going to be better overall for all of us. So with that I'd like to close if you would like more information about me, about my school.
