Because Mars and the Sun travel at different speeds, they can only form conjunctions once every twenty-six months. November 17th is the beginning of this new synodic (has gone around the zodiac) cycle and closes out the previous cycle which started October 7, 2021 (Libra). This new synodic cycle launching on the 17thhas important milestone dates:
Nov 17, 2023 Sun conjunction Mars (25 Scorpio)
Oct 14, 2024 Sun opening Square Mars (21 Libra/Cancer)
Jan 15, 2025 Sun opposite Mars (25 Cap/Cancer)
April 21,2025 Sun closing Square Mars (1 Taurus/Leo)
January 9, 2026 – New Sun Conjunction Mars (18 Capricorn)
Because of their weird speeds, each Mars/Sun synodic cycle, in a particular sign is a unique opportunity because only a few will happen in any lifetime. Case in point the last time we had a Scorpio Mars/Sun was in 1991 and the next time will be in 2070.
The Scorpio Mars/Sun energy is of course the plumber, surgeon, detective, deep diver and expert in both crime and punishment and master of the psyche. The world will be on a journey as this synodic cycle unfolds between now and the opening square in fall of 2024. At that point we may have a good idea of the tasks that need all our skills harnessed during this 2023-2024 time. By January 2025 at the opposition, we will be clear where we had successes and losses and can adjust our goals and tackle with new knowledge. Then in April 2025 more obstacles will come forward but now we have mastered skills and recognize solutions quicker. Finally, we wrap this cycle in January 2026 and begin the new path. For those people with planets at these degrees, you will no doubt feel and ride the aspect in a personal manner and would benefit by connecting back with this Scorpio energy of this new moon for some insight.
