Mars, Mercury, and Astraea Connect Houses Twelve, Two, and Ten

Augustus 23, 2025

Good morning!

A look at the current astrological alignment revealed a Twelfth House Mars in Libra, Mercury in Leo in the Tenth House, and Astraea in Sagittarius in the Second House.

Taking an aggressive approach to a possible lawsuit involving the workplace, or because of some form of defamation or libel that has destroyed your reputation with the public, seems like the way to go now.

Perhaps you’ll gain enemies from following through with that plan, but were they really your friends to begin with?

This is about truth, and it’s about righting a wrong that, quite frankly, could’ve been a long time coming.

The alignments of these planets and the relationships between them can manifest in many different ways.

The Second House governs survival and the necessities that, at the very least, support life or some form of comfortable living.  A trine to Mercury in the Tenth House indicates that any type of conversation or commerce aimed at increasing possessions, money, or that which is needed to survive is good. 

However, a Twelfth House Mars warns against violence from secret enemies, and so, with Mercury, the God of Communication, in trine with Astraea in the Second House, I would refrain from speaking about money or personal possessions in front of certain people.

It’s not that jealousy is so much of an issue now, but it looks to be more like entitlement. 

Sometimes, you have people who are not honest with themselves about their own ability, or their own efforts to acquire what they want and need in life, and no matter what you say to these people, it’s hard for them to release the thought or feeling that they’ve been wronged or slighted.

Overhearing a conversation about how good your life is, and how much money you just spent on clothes and jewelry, can be enough to trigger them if they believe it’s them who should be at the top of the mountain instead of you.

They don’t see their actions as being motivated by jealousy but rather as some form of justice.

On a good note, this alignment favors fun and earning money or acquiring possessions in a fun or pleasurable way. 

Mars in the Twelfth House is not only about secret enemies and violence.

When things are hidden from us or kept in secret, it can take a real effort both physically and mentally to get to the bottom of things.  It can be draining, but more importantly, it’s a natural deterrent.  

Mars in the Twelfth House makes us assertive, energetic, and aggressive when it comes to penetrating the depths of something.  We won’t take no for an answer, and taking this kind of action when no one else will can be highly rewarding.

Some type of secret is discovered now, and the revelation of it will not only balance the scales, but it will also provide a feeling of love and harmony that for a very long time, has been missing from your life.
