please explain.How rare will this Mars in retrograde be this autumn and which constellation will it be in?don't worry about such things because horoscopes are a load of rubbishHow rare will this Mars in retrograde be this autumn and which constellation will it be in?Mars will be in Cancer throughout most of the Autumn this year.



Starting in July, around the 20th, you'll see this fabulous line-up across the early night sky: Saturn in the East, Mercury, Venus, ending with Mars in the West, near Orion's upper right "hand". That will be a lovely sight!



Next, in August, Orion's right foot and right hand line up to point to Mars in Taurus. By September, Mars is creeping back to the East right into Gemini and Orion will have already set in the West.



By October, Mars has moved into Cancer, where it will stay until December before moving into Leo.



The positions of the planets are different all the time. I'm sure there are computers or calculators somewhere that can tell you when to expect this particular configuration to happen again, but I dont' know myself how to determine this.



I use this website, below, when I want to know what's in the night sky on any particular date or time, using my own location as "home" (e.g. Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, UK versus Raleigh, NC, USA). Just set up a login and password, plonk in your current location, and click on Whole Sky Chart. It will tell you what's in the night sky on any chosen date, any chosen time, above your location.



Hope this helps!
