With Mars entering Cancer, Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains how this impacts the week ahead

With Mars entering Cancer, this cosmic transit brings a freshening amidst the fiery Aries season that we are still in. The planet of Mars bestows energy, courage, and assertiveness. Having been in the sign of Gemini since August 2022, we may have found ourselves quick to flare these past few months. Now, having Mars move into the watery sign of Cancer, our instincts become more emotional led, rather than logical. During the next two months, there may be a desire to spoil our senses with nostalgia, we may also unintentionally hurt loved ones with our passive-aggressiveness. Either way, there is an inner mother that passionately wants to love and protect, just don’t forget to check your impulses.

For the remainder of the week, we have different planets joining forces. On March 27, the planet of communications, Mercury meets with the planet of abundance, Jupiter. On March 30, Venus who rules love and beauty meets with Uranus who enjoys shaking things up. These divine meet-ups are the universe’s way of telling us to have trust in ourselves and our luck. It is okay to dive in headfirst sometimes, embrace the changes that are already happening and expect pleasant surprises.
