How long does this blocked stretch last?

Mars covers about half a degree a day, so a 3-degree orb gives roughly twelve days, and forcing it costs more than detouring or waiting for the whole of that time.

Why do joints and teeth come up here?

Tradition assigns Saturn to structure, and under a hard angle Mars keeps applying force against a boundary, so the pressure settles into the structural parts: bone, teeth, joints.

In detail

Transit Mars in challenging aspect to natal Saturn, twelve days under a 3-degree orb at half a degree a day, and the most obstructed reading in the Mars series. Mars wants to advance, Saturn wants a limit, and a hard angle has every application of force strike a boundary, so anger gets pressed back inward. Tradition ties the stretch to the structural parts of the body: bone, teeth, joints. Against the slow and unbroken soft angle, the move here is a detour or a wait rather than more force.
