With Mars entering Aries, I& #39;ve been seeing lots of tweets about wanting to get in shape & I& #39;m here for it! So I thought I& #39;d do a thread on astrology & fitness, & share my personal experience w it. I& #39;ve been powerlifting for 5 years; started getting physically active 8 years ago.
Mars definitely rules physical activity & fitness.
But I& #39;d also look at the Moon (our bodies, what nourishes us) & the Sun (our vitality, energy).
You don& #39;t build muscle in the gym. Lifting weights tears up our muscles. But resting & eating after is what actually builds them.

And let& #39;s not forget Saturn! Saturn = discipline & limits. Discipline & consistency are key to getting into a fitness routine. Also, knowing what your limits are so you don& #39;t push yourself to a point where you risk injury, burnout.
Saturn can also deal w weight loss.

Fuck it, let& #39;s just go through the rest of the planets & how they impact fitness.
Venus = aesthetics, a common reason why people want to exercise.
Jupiter = expansion. Some of you want to exercise for the gainz.
Mercury = communication. It& #39;s good to communicate your goals.

As for houses. The following would most directly deal w fitness:
1H = self, body, appearance
5H = hobbies, recreation. So if your goal is fun or trying a new activity, could fit in here
6H = routine, work. But also injury, so be careful

First, get clear on your goals. Run a 5k? Lose/gain weight? Look/feel good? The clearer & more specific, the better.
Then decide what you wanna do to get there & be realistic. Muay thai 2x/week? Run 3x/week to prepare for a 5k in 3 months? Stop eating fast food?

Feel free to elect a time, look at transits & profections, etc. re: starting your workout routine. I didn& #39;t elect anything & it still worked out for me.
Astrology can help, but don& #39;t let it hold you back or add more anxiety!
Below are inception charts for my fitness journey!

8H profection month, lord of month Jupiter in 1H Taurus
4/7/14: Started CrossFit, which introduced me to lifting. Went 5x/week, got hella fit.
3H Cancer year, LOY Moon in 3H w Jupiter. Moved to HI, so didn& #39;t have women& #39;s boot camp classes anymore. Realized I need a community to workout; can& #39;t do solo workouts.

1/2/15: Realized I love lifting, so I found a powerlifting gym to focus on that. Been training here w my coach & team for 5+ years. Started competing a few months after this.
4H year, LOY Sun in 9H conjunct Pluto, w Mercury & Venus co-present.
8H month, LOM Jupiter was Rx in 4H.

8H month, LOM Jupiter was Rx in 4H.
Most common denominator here is activated Jupiter (because gainz?!). Jupiter rules my 11H & I like working out in groups, so.
Mars was Rx in the first 2 charts, which is interesting bc Mars Rx is relatively infrequent. Saturn was also Rx in first 2 charts.
