Mars in Sagittarius: Adventurous Passion

Passion planet Mars treks through adventurous Sagittarius from October 8 to November 18. This dynamic energy adds confidence and flair to all intimate encounters, and suggests that exotic experiences are the key to enhancing relationships.

Sagittarius is a mutable sign, so passions will be somewhat flexible during this period. Your interest in someone -- or something -- new is easily aroused, so follow your own truth. Relationships must have a sense of integrity whilst Mars moves through Sagittarius, as this is a highly principled placement. Based on your sign’s modality, here’s how Mars in Sagittarius will influence intimacy for you in the coming weeks.

CARDINAL: Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn
As a Cardinal sign, your passion has a subtle or hidden feel to it. You’ll have to put in effort to create heat in relationships now. Communication and time away from daily routines helps set the mood. Be honest about what you want -- and who you want it with. If possible, escape the day-to-day; a love hideout is perfect for passion. Sparks may also fly while you’re travelling, so consider shifting locations to ignite the fires of love.

FIXED: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius
Splurging on special experiences will add a luxury to your passion now. Show the one you want they’re worth it by going all-out on an indulgent adventure. A little effort goes a long way. If you’re single, a blind date through a friend holds promise. If you need tips on spicing up a stagnant love life, ask your friends for suggestions. Support from your nearest and dearest helps you take risks and leads to more passion.

MUTABLE: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces
Passion is easier to spark now as Mars activates your angular houses. This can be an excellent time for reclaiming your mojo and re-establishing regular intimacy. Sparks can fly at home or at work. If you’re up for a raunchy mid-day rendezvous, boldly act on your desires. It’s up to you to take charge and keep the passion alive. Splurge on lingerie, wine, chocolate or bubble bath to help set the scene for seduction. You won’t take no for an answer!
