Further proof that Saturn is making himself heard in Cancer.

The Rover's main mission? Finding evidence of WATER.

Cancerian, life-supporting, wet, wet delicious water.

Go little Rover, go!

Mars Rovers in Quest for Grail: Signs of Water

All I have to say?

Wow.

Big upps to my ruling planet, Mars. Last night, a bunch of really sweet science nerds at NASA cheered as their beloved rover bounced a bunch of times and finally landed safely on the surface of the Red planet to search for past signs of life.

This is also interesting from an astrological perspective. Mars entered Aries on December 16th -- its home sign. Mars digs spending time here, but might cause some awkward, violent upheavals (earthquakes, anyone?) and unpleasant warmongering. This is personal and collective. We might feel more ambitious, aggressive, and prone to tantrums when we don't get what we want.

I think I am way too enamored of science nerds.
