Cosmic Transit

The Raw Energy of Ashwini

By @marcus_dubois

Mars is currently sitting in Ashwini, right where it’s most at home.

Ashwini is the first nakshatra, and it’s pure, primal start-up energy. Think of a horse galloping into a storm. It’s impulsive, it’s fast, and it doesn’t wait for permission. Since Mars rules this energy, you’re likely feeling a strong pull to initiate something new. You don't want to wait around for things to happen; you want to make them happen.

But be careful. That kind of speed often leads to accidents or missed details. Ashwini is about healing, too, but it’s the kind of healing that requires a quick, sharp intervention. If you've been procrastinating on a health routine or a bold move at work, now is the time to strike. Just watch your temper.

I’ve been checking my own chart on the Vyom app, and it’s clear this Mars transit is hitting people differently depending on their rising sign. Are you feeling that sudden, restless itch to start a new project? Or are you just feeling burnt out?

Don't ignore the urge to move, but remember that the fastest route isn't always the safest. Use this time to cut away what’s been holding you back. Just don't gallop off a cliff in your haste.

Mars in Ashwini gives you a raw, aggressive edge to dominate your competition right now. Use this fire to push your projects forward, but keep your ego in check so you don't burn bridges.

On May 25, 2026, the Sun enters Rohini; it's a prime time to favor cooling, hydrating foods like cucumber and mung beans to soothe your Pitta dosha. Use Vyom to track these planetary shifts, as aligning your diet with the stars keeps your energy steady and your focus sharp.
