Mars enters Leo

Mars crosses into Leo on 21 February 2027 at 13:48 UTC, moving backwards — it had already been through this sign and is returning to finish something.

An ingress is simply a body passing 0° of a sign, but it marks a genuine change of register: Mars in Leo operates through fire means and at a fixed tempo. Mars redirects where effort and irritation go, and how directly people are willing to compete.

Leo is ruled by the Sun, so for as long as Mars is here its behaviour is coloured by that planet as well as by its own nature.
