Right away, right away, let’s reload,” Baldwin says, apparently in an attempt to keep the scene moving, according to the video published by NBC News.

kaṣmīmī, which translates to “as if in the heart.” In astrological terms, a cazimi transpires when a planet is in close or exact conjunction with the sun, right in the infernal heart of it, if you will.

Why? Mars is the ancient ruler of Scorpio and its favorite place to flex.
