The phrase "acute awareness'' encapsulates the interpretation of  Mercury in the 8th house of the solar return.  Your mind is more insightful and reflective during this Solar Return year.  And there will be times when you will see more or know more than you were previously aware of. Knowledge of the unconscious mind grows quickly, leaving you overwhelmed by the change. You are more aware of nuances, motives, and psychological conflicts in yourself and others. Subtle shifts in power and power plays will be more obvious to you now.

  While Mars is in the 12th house in Solar Return , you have the ability to work independently or behind the scenes.  This is a great time to focus on projects which require some degree of “aloneness.”  You must provide your own sense of direction and motivation while working toward achievement, but what you ultimately accomplish can be very original and unique.  Yearlong projects are associated with this placement since many people will not know what you are working on or have accomplished until late in the solar return year.  👉  Read here if you are looking for  Mars in the 12th house in Progress Chart The tendency with this placement is to prevent the left hand from knowing what the right hand is doing.
