About Mars retro…
Are there similar precautions to implement as during a Mercury retro?
I’ve not heard astrologers mention this.. but buying an MP3 player just after Mars turned recently (Nov. 2007) well….!!
It’s been a nightmare to get it to work, changes problems with every hour or day, exchanged it, same thing continues… and the companies are absolutely no help.

Interesting coincidence? Or is there something about MARS retro as well as MERCURY? :-) aaargh!!

LD, usually if you look, you’ll find something underlying your gadget problems. It could be Mars retro, or it could be a transit to your chart. I would look at Uranus (gadgets) and Neptune (music) as well as Mercury and Mars.

I do think Mars retro has a bearing on machines, especially cars (Mars rules metal). My boyfriend is in the process of opening a new business, and that has been dragging on. The workers run into snags, sometimes they don’t even show up. But the computer and gadget world hasn’t been too bad for me. My internet connection has been pretty good, slow at times but nothing has broken down (knock on wood). Then again, I haven’t bought any new electronics lately.

What about the rest of you? Do you think Mars retrograde has a bearing on high tech gadgets? Have you noticed any problems?
