In this episode, Morgan dives into the intense energies of Mars Retrograde, a celestial event that promises to shake things up from December 6th to February 23rd, 2025. As the planet of action and assertiveness appears to move backward, Morgan offers insights and practical tips for navigating this challenging period, which coincides with the holiday season and significant political transitions in the U.S.

Morgan breaks down the basics of retrogrades, explaining the optical illusion behind this astrological phenomenon, and shares how Mars Retrograde can heighten anger, conflict, and irritability. She emphasizes the importance of understanding how Mars' position in your birth chart can influence your personal experience during this time, sharing her own journey with Mars in her seventh house of relationships.

In a bold move, Morgan doubles down on her advice to use the energy of anger constructively during Mars Retrograde. She encourages listeners to harness this powerful force to set boundaries and cut toxic influences from their lives. While this perspective sparked debate among astrologers, Morgan stands firm, advocating for a personalized approach to astrology that takes into account individual circumstances and baselines.

Throughout the episode, Morgan provides valuable tips for channeling Mars Retrograde's energy positively. She suggests practicing patience, responding rather than reacting, and viewing triggers as opportunities for self-exploration. Listeners are invited to engage in journaling, creative outlets, and meditative practices to ground themselves during this tumultuous period.
