Mars in Signs

Mars in Signs: all the characteristics of Mars in astrology, when placed in any of the twelve zodiac signs.

Natal Mars in Pisces

With your natal Mars in Pisces, this winter Water sign extinguishes most of the fiery traits of the planet, creating a rather passive and gentle personality. Mars is generally not operating well in such liquid and feminine surroundings, as it does not have the ability to be impulsive in his actions. Mars is known to have very dynamic attributes, while Pisces are known as a rather introvert and sentimental sign, lost in its world of ideas rather than functioning in the material one. Of course, such a placement can be great for people connected with the arts, but is impractical for the every-day reality. These opposite traits will definitely create conflict between the need to act and the insecurity of feeling powerless to perform the wanted action. Having your Mars…

Natal Mars in Aquarius

With a natal Mars in Aquarius, this winter Air sign will give to the individual a strong urge for freedom, and will create a personality that fights for social rights. The fiery traits of Mars do not find real problems operating in Aquarius, a liberating sign that allows rapid decisions and movements. Mars is known to have very dynamic attributes, while Aquarius is known as a rather extrovert and even eccentric sign; the result of this mixture is a wild and progressive spirit, always on the move and with a thirst for pioneering actions.

Natal Mars in Capricorn

With your natal Mars in Capricorn, this winter Earth sign will definitely empower the planet of action, as it operates wonderfully in the serious and structured surroundings that the sign offers. This placement is great for achieving goals, as it grants endurance and power to withstand difficulties; the native will not quit chasing his targets and even when things get tough, he will always find that extra strength to go on. Mars in Capricorn grants this type of robustness not only to the native’s character, but also to his body. On the other hand, this natal placement of Mars can also diminish the individual’s emotions, making him rather insensitive and concentrated on pragmatism and reality. Mars is generally governing activity and our drive, what we fight for and what we…

Natal Mars in Sagittarius

With your natal Mars in Sagittarius, this winter Fire sign will create rather positive surroundings for the red planet to function. Sagittarius is known as the sign of expansion, and Mars placed here has the freedom to act upon will. Mars enjoys this ability to operate without restriction, and may also reveal his playful side, which will make his activity be triggered and initiated by curiosity to discover more, while also the need to create joy through actions. Of course, leaving Mars without any leash can also bring some complications – they mostly include the lack of seriousness, carelessness and taking too many risks without thoroughly considering possible dangers. Mars is generally governing activity and our drive, what we fight for and what we conquer too. The red planet rules…

Natal Mars in Scorpio

Mars is generally governing activity and our drive, what we fight for and what we conquer too.

Natal Mars in Libra

With your natal Mars in Libra, this tender and balanced Air sign will blur most sharp sides of the red planet. This placement prompts it to function in balanced ways even if those are incompatible with Martian power. Libra may be neutralizing the strong drive that Mars usually offers, yet on the other hand will gift such a native with the ability to avoid quarrels of any type and handle all situations with diplomacy. Mars in Libra can be very helpful for people whose target is a stable marriage and that invest in creating the right conditions for a happy merged reality with their significant other. Mars is generally governing activity and our drive, what we fight for and what we conquer too. The red planet rules our actions and…

Natal Mars in Virgo

With your natal Mars in Virgo, this analytical Earth sign will sharpen all Martian traits and give them precision. This placement is ideal for workers, as it empowers their stamina and ability to work, while also makes them taking care of all small details that are necessary to carry out projects. Mars in Virgo can be very helpful in carrying out physical tasks too, yet such a native should always be careful of over-working. Virgo is the sign mostly responsible for daily routines and health, and in case that Mars operates on very quick or long-lasting volumes, the physical body of the native can suffer. Such people usually have a very quick pace of life overall, being involved in a lot of activities; laziness and boredom is something they despise…

Natal Mars in Leo

With your natal Mars in Leo, this summer Fire sign will furthermore empower the red planet, prompting it to shine and excel in whatever is connected with leadership. It operates quite well in the hot and masculine surroundings of the sign; so strongly that many times it can lead to extreme pride and arrogance. Leo is the most theatrical sign, and the natural outcome of Mars in Leo is showing off in every possible circumstances. Usually, such an individual chooses to show off exactly those traits that are connected with Mars: his physical power, victories, achievements, athletic or military abilities and more. Anything that he considers as something that could place him above the other “mortals” will frequently be used for boosting his eg too. Mars is generally governing activity…

Natal Mars in Cancer

With your natal Mars in Cancer, this summer Water sign may impose some difficulties to the planet of action, as it does not operate well in such liquid and feminine surroundings. The planet of fire is frequently reacting negatively with Cancer’s water traits, producing steam that can lead to complications if not channeled through healthy ways. Nervousness and irritability can easily arise, and such a native should definitely find ways of externalizing his Martian energy. Mars is known to have very dynamic attributes, while Cancer is known as a rather introvert and sentimental sign; these opposite traits will definitely create conflict between the need to act and the insecurity of feeling powerless to perform the wanted action. Mars is generally governing activity and our drive, what we fight for and…

Natal Mars in Gemini

With your natal Mars in Gemini, the dual Air sign will give a lot of Mercurial characteristics, such as high speed, to reactions through verbal means and even a slightly aggressive way of using words. This placement brings accelerated patterns concerning taking decisions, and all intellectual activities are empowered. The native’s mind needs to be constantly stimulated and active, and boredom is something not tolerated. The dynamic attributes of Mars desire a lot of talking and communication, while also take pleasure in confrontations, debates and verbal victories during such situations. Obviously, such a natal combination can also create a rather high-strung and nervous individual, whose verbal presence simply cannot pass unnoticed. Mars is generally governing activity and our drive, what we fight for and what we conquer too. The red…

Natal Mars in Taurus

With your natal Mars in Taurus, this fertile Earth sign may impose some difficulties to the planet of action, forcing it to stall over its natural impulsive decisions and bringing some internal irritation. Mars is known to have very dynamic attributes, while Taurus is known as the sign that does not rush; these opposite traits will definitely create conflict between the need to act and acting itself. Mars is generally governing activity and our drive, what we fight for and what we conquer too. The red planet rules our actions and where we place our energy to receive results, yet also can show life areas where fighting for our goals receives resistance from other people (or life itself).
