We’re barely per week into the brand new 12 months, and if you happen to’ve already felt like your resolutions did not get off on the proper foot, the AstroTwins say may very effectively be as a result of Mercury and Mars are each retrograde. These heavy-hitter planets affect all the pieces from our communication, to our group, to how we take motion—and so they’re principally scrambled proper now.
Because the twins not too long ago wrote for mbg, “From December 29, 2022, to January 18, 2023, [Mercury is] backing up by way of Capricorn. As we try to set our resolutions, the cosmic trickster reminds us of the adage, ‘Man plans, God laughs.'” And with Mars in retrograde for roughly one other week, they add, it is solely including extra gasoline to this fraught hearth.
In different phrases, the celebrities aren’t precisely aligned for optimum development or tackling your resolutions, and as such, the twins advocate ready till the brand new moon in Aquarius on January 21 (which can be a supermoon, BTW) to actually begin making headway.
