Cosmic Lessons for Twin Flames: Mars in Cancer and Venus in Aries Retrogrades
Understanding the energetic shifts and their influence on twin flame connections
The divine masculine archetype of the Zodiac, Mars, has completed its retrograde in the empathetic emotional sign of Cancer. Cancer’s caring and protective energies call one to emotional awakening, family, and ancestral wounds.
For the divine masculine group, this shift was a call to recall the feelings that had been rejected or repressed for so long. Socialized to associate strength with stoicism, the masculine energy was invited to destroy these drained constructs and step into the strength of emotional closeness and softness.
In twin flame reality, this time could have seemed like withdrawal or emotional withdrawal on the masculine partner’s side. But it was not withdrawal in the sense of rejection — rather, it was reflection. The divine masculine was called to heal old wounds of abandonment, fear, worthlessness, or shattered family ideals. This backspin was an invitation to see that true strength lies not in the repression of emotion but, instead, in claiming one’s feelings and allowing space for a deeper union with the divine feminine mirror.
