Episode Ten: Mars Enters Leo
The Fire Reignites — Lessons in Power, Purpose & Pride
Welcome back to The Cosmic Crux, where we talk astrology—no fluff (okay, maybe just a little). I’m your host, Mar Alejandra of Mar and the Stars, and in this episode, we’re tracking one of the most powerful returns of 2025: Mars re-entering Leo on April 18th.
This isn’t just a transit—it’s a return to center, a resurrection of creative fire after a long emotional detour. From bold beginnings last November to the shadowy depths of retrograde through Cancer, we’ve been asked to confront our relationship to visibility, purpose, and power. Now, the fire reignites—but this time, from the soul.
🔥 Inside This Episode:
Rewind + Reset: The Mars-in-Leo storyline that started in November 2024, went retrograde in December, and now reclaims momentum.
Lessons from the Fire: Why this isn’t about ego-driven leadership, but heart-centered expression.
Sign-by-Sign Epiphanies: Breakdowns by modality—fixed, cardinal, and mutable—including deep dives for Leo & Cancer placements.
Reflection Prompts: What does authentic power look like for you now? What’s no longer worth performing for?
✨ Key Takeaways for Each Sign:
Leo & Cancer (6°–29°)You’ve both been shaped by this fire—Leo, you’re learning to lead from resonance, not reaction. Cancer, your care now comes with discernment, not depletion.Epiphany: You’ve outgrown the old identity. Let your expression evolve.
Fixed Signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius)You've been asked to loosen your grip on control and embrace vulnerability, joy, and collaboration.Epiphany: Real power doesn’t isolate. It connects, creates, and radiates.
Cardinal Signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn)This retrograde paused your momentum—but it wasn’t punishment, it was preparation.Epiphany: Patience sharpened your precision. Now, move from clarity.
Mutable Signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces)You’ve been absorbing, adapting, and integrating. The inner signal is clear—it’s time to act.Epiphany: Intuition has sharpened. Now ground your vision in action.
🎙️ Quote of the Episode:
“Mars in Leo wants us to take up space—but not for show, for soul.”
