What is Mars responsible for in the natal chart?

The beginning is yang, the element is fire; abode - Aries, Scorpio; exaltation in Capricorn; fall in Cancer. The passage time of the zodiac is 710 days (1.95 years), and one sign is 2 months. Mars reaches its greatest strength when, like the Sun, it is at its zenith.

Mars is a planet of the element of fire. These are will, activity, struggle, passion, anger, strength and aggression, as well as noble initiatives, sacrifice and feat. It represents courage, determination, straightforwardness, competitiveness, as well as military action and risk-taking. Mars (Ares) - god of war. Mars is considered an inauspicious planet, a malefic that brings complications and disruptions in life. Mars in a horoscope shows where a person’s energy will be directed, that is, his affection, as well as sexual passion (the ideal of a man in a woman’s horoscope). That's why strong Mars is found in people who are energetic, enterprising, creative, and assert justice. Weak Mars leads to passivity, absent-mindedness, wasting energy on worthless things (sex) and the inability to bring things to completion.

Mars represents pioneers in any business, military, police, boxers and other athletes. He is responsible for real estate, property, construction business, as well as machinery, various types of machinery, weapons, electricity and electronic equipment. Mars also represents engineers, mechanics, electricians, gunsmiths, blacksmiths, steelworkers, cooks and people who deal with fire and iron, as well as surgeons, butchers and others associated with blood. Among relatives, Mars represents brothers.

“Martians” are impulsive, they strive to give everything in one impulse and achieve the goal immediately, in a hurry. Good Mars gives noble initiatives, the implementation of plans, that is, the opportunity to bring what has been started to completion; good, creative energy (positive biofield). Negative Mars causes accidents, foretells danger from fire, and involves confrontation. Such Mars is present in evil, rude people, hot-tempered and cruel. The positive-negative Mars pair can be compared to the police-criminal antagonists.

The mark of Mars on the appearance: sharp, rough facial features, a decisive appearance, developed muscles, hard, unruly hair (in a crew cut), red or blond, as well as reddish skin, freckles, pronounced brow ridges and nasolabial folds (running from the nose to the corners of the mouth), sometimes - a broken nose. Folds on the neck indicate aggressiveness and greed. The voice is commanding, usually hoarse, the speech is sharp and abrupt.

On the hand, the line of Mars is the line of the mind or head (second from the top of the palm) - one of the main ones. It starts between the thumb and index finger, runs along the plain of Mars and ends closer to the edge of the palm on the hillocks of Mars and the Moon. A straight, long, pronounced line of Mars speaks of a strong will and the ability to reason clearly and sensibly. If a straight line crosses the palm to the edge, connecting at the base with the line of life, then this indicates an excess of prudence and stinginess, weak imagination and characterizes a person of action, when the end justifies the means. A too short line of Mars is a sign of weak will, indecision and lack of intelligence, a tendency to deceive and steal, and in women, moreover, strong coquetry. The longer the line, the longer the life (the life line is also important).

The plain of Mars (strength) is located under the line of Mars, between the lines of life and health, which separates it from the Mount of the Moon. The Mount of Mars is located under the Mount of Mercury above the Mount of the Moon between the lines of the heart and mind. The degree of development of the mount of Mars shows how its qualities are manifested: an overly developed one indicates an evil Mars, normal development indicates a good and strong Mars. The absence of a lump speaks of indecision and cowardice (men do not dare to marry).

Briefly: Mars is strength, energy, will, courage, determination, enterprise, competitiveness, ardor and sexual passion. Mars is responsible for property (real estate), machinery, machinery, weapons, electricity, electronic equipment, construction business, as well as fire and iron. Mars represents brothers, as well as men, military, police, engineers, electricians, mechanics, cooks and surgeons.

Mars is the fourth planet farthest from the Sun. Ancient astrologers were aware that the soil of this planet is red. Iron oxide gives it this hue, which is why the astrological element of the planet Mars is iron and the color is red.

Strong and weak Mars in a person’s natal chart

The principle of Mars in astrology is the principle of manifested action, activity and masculinity, the principle of “yang”. The vital activity of a person, which he shows to the outside world, his ability to act and react, depends on how strong the position Mars occupies in the horoscope. People with a strong Mars in their horoscope have very pronounced so-called masculine character traits: physical strength, endurance, high energy potential, active lifestyle, quick response to stimuli. Such people are very mobile, they need to do something, go somewhere, somehow express their energy. If energy is in excess, this leads to conflicts, which is why Mars was considered in ancient times to be the planet of war and aggression. All famous generals and warriors had a strong Mars in their horoscope. Weakly expressed Mars in the horoscope indicates that a person has a lack of vital energy and activity, he is passive and does not show aggression in conflict situations, and tries to settle everything peacefully. Men with such a weak Mars are usually considered “weak” and “weak.”

Mars in Aries

The signs ruled astrologically by Mars are Aries and Scorpio. Mars in Aries gives a tireless warrior and fighter, a nonconformist, a person who spends his entire life in struggle (and with whom or what it does not matter, the fact of the struggle itself is important), which is why among people with Mars in Aries there are so many representatives of military and security professions.

Mars in Taurus

Taurus and Libra, the signs ruled by Venus, are signs of exile for Mars (that is, signs where it is difficult for him to show his strength). Mars in Taurus avoids direct activity, a person with Mars in Taurus will not strive for battles and battles, his destiny is peaceful work, where he is quite successful. People with Mars in Taurus are distinguished by great hard work and patience.

Mars in Cancer

Cancer is a fall sign for Mars. In a sign ruled by the Moon, it is difficult for Mars to express its activity directly and directly; here activity is dissipated by the lunar principle of passivity. Therefore, people with Mars in Cancer prefer to avoid acute situations that force them to react quickly and directly; they try in every possible way to avoid conflicts. Due to the impressionability of Cancer, people with such Mars are very vulnerable and are afraid of open aggression. There is also a tendency to consider oneself a victim (and what exactly: evil people or unfortunate fate is not important).

Mars in Gemini

Mars in Gemini. Here the energy of Mars manifests itself through the verbal level, in other words - through communication, exchange of opinions and polemics. People with Mars in Gemini are very active and energetic, but often tend to be scattered about several things at once, which often interferes with the achievement of global life goals.

Mars in Leo

Mars in Leo shows its energy quite clearly and loves to demonstrate its masculinity (or energy in the case of female representatives). Such Mars really has enormous energy potential and the ability to bring many projects to life, the main thing is to have a sincere desire.

Mars or the so-called Red Planet rules Aries and partly Scorpio. Because of the bloody color of its surface, the ancient Romans gave it the name of the god of war, who was identified with the Greek Ares. This deity is the most ferocious and cruel among all the ancient gods. However, Mars in astrology has both negative and positive effects on a person, depending on the position of this planet in the sign and house (field) of the horoscope.

What is Mars responsible for in astrology?

This celestial body is responsible for physical and spiritual strength, will, courage, assertiveness, as well as the instinct of self-preservation. This is the planet of life and death. If Martian energy is weak in a person’s personal horoscope, this can manifest itself in indecision, passivity and despondency. And, on the contrary, if there is a lot of such energy, a person is not afraid to go forward, take risks and win, and events in his life develop rapidly.

Excess Martian power provokes aggression and dissatisfaction, inability to control impulses of anger. Often rage destroys a person from the inside if he does not have the opportunity to direct energy in the right direction.

Traditionally, the symbol of the ancient god of war is the wolf. Mars himself is depicted as a warrior in armor. The task of Aries and Scorpios is to learn to manage their fiery energy. Mars in a man’s horoscope symbolizes male sexual power, and, in general, masculinity. Mars makes representatives of the stronger sex courageous and resilient, and gives women self-confidence and develops self-defense skills.

Using the energy of Mars for evil purposes is fraught with mental imbalance, as well as a breakdown in relationships with people. It is not for nothing that the ancient god of war was very close to Disharmony, the goddess of rivalry and discord. The Red Planet has two satellites - Phobos and Deimos, also known as Fear and Horror - named after the two sons of Mars.

Mars in astrology: meaning

The warlike energy of Mars is reflected not only on individual people, but on all of humanity. Under certain astrological combinations, when earthlings are most susceptible to its influence, wars and revolutions occur, and crimes become more frequent.

People ruled by the planet Mars are active, mobile, sociable and temperamental. In order to curb the aggressive element of fire within themselves, they should splash out their energy in sports, physical labor, and physical activity. Under no circumstances should this force be suppressed.

Has it ever happened that you liked a certain type of man or woman, but were not physically attracted to this person at all?

Importance of Mars meanings in a horoscope

Mars in astrology speaks of the modus operandi (course of action), the method of achieving what is desired and the level of a person’s libido. In contrast to the receptive Venus, the fourth planet from the Sun represents the archetype of the active doer, fighter, protector, discoverer and initiator. Comparing the positions of Mars in the charts of partners shows how compatible their energetic and sexual manifestations are.Mars in a woman's chart symbolizes:

• subconscious image of a man;
• type of passion (your own and your partner’s);
• erotic ideas of a person;

After all, if a partner is chosen purely with the head, without taking into account the requirements of the subconscious, such a union is possible. But there will not be complete harmony, energetic and sexual understanding, or self-satisfaction.

Important Note

Do not forget that the positions of Mars in the female horoscope work in two ways:

And here sometimes there are complications. For example, if a woman is the owner of Mars in Aries, then she will be drawn to men who are proactive, passionate, quick-tempered, and self-centered. At the same time, she herself will have a similar sexual temperament. It is very difficult to maintain such a passionate union for a long time within the framework of a harmonious partnership.
