Mars in Taurus

17 September 1958, 12:00, Ljubljana, Slovenia

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Janez as “you”.

Mars is a planet of physical energy and action. It rules the Aries sign and traditionally (before Pluto was discovered) also Scorpio. Mars is also one of the personal planets, because on average it stays in one sign for less than 2 months and therefore has an important influence on our personality.

In personal horoscope, Mars is connected to action, energy, competitiveness, hot-bloodedness and impetuousness. The position of Mars tells us in what way and in what form you express your activity. Mars also indicates your ambitions and the work you do, which is connected to these ambitions.

Mars in Taurus

You are stubborn and firm, at your job you are reliable, hard-working, persistent and you can even do laboring work. Perhaps you do your work slowly, but you get things done systematically, methodically and responsibly. In your youth, you might be prone to being lazy, because you find it difficult to get something started at once and on the spur of the moment. Whatever you do is well considered and thought through. But when you do start doing it, you rarely leave things unfinished. You are popular among co-workers or as boss, because of your fair and reliable personality, however, you often like arguments and quarrels and may even become involved (although, fortunately, not often) in a fight.

Mars in 6th house

You commit to your work conscientiously and with devotion, you always set exacting goals and also try to realize them. You direct all your energy mostly to work and consequently, to validation of your own worth. That is why you are a demanding person, to others and perhaps even more to yourself and because of this, you have problems with your digestion and similar issues. You give your best in every project. Because you have a perfectionist nature and want to get everything done (and also in time), you always behave very quickly and nervously and that is why you often experience injuries, hits, high fever, etc.

Mars inconjunct Jupiter

You are usually passionate, restless and have a lot of energy. Inside, you hold a certain indefinable inner dissatisfaction and yearning and usually have big desires and appetites in all areas, but you often have difficulties balancing and coordinating the actual and realistic with what is wanted and planned.

Mars inconjunct Neptune

You are sensitive and emotional and you often try to suppress or at least hide this, so you wouldn't seem too soft, so you are often in conflict with yourself and you run away to your dream world and/or in laziness. All your actions depend on how you feel and you often work intensely at the last minute.

Mars square Pluto

You have enormous energy potential and have to actually try to keep it under control. You have a passionate, impulsive, fiery, impetuous and explosive character and such are also your reactions. You are often in conflict, because you are impatient, often tactless and intolerant. You quickly get agitated, argue often, sometimes you can even be violent. You have trouble holding back your physical and other appetites and sometimes have to pull all the stops to keep balance between what is possible and real and between what you want.

Mars opposition Ascendant

You are usually passionate and fiery, also fast and restless. You calm down with difficulty and are always in motion or involved with something. You are bored, when and if nothing is happening. You are not always patient and tolerant, also not tactful. You often have an unpredictable, reckless, impulsive character and react too quickly and too strongly, because you have difficulty restraining yourself and so you may also experience misunderstandings or disputes with others. Your extreme need for manifestation of power and energy, which is sometimes, unfortunately, also destructive, can originate from the earliest life period, when it perhaps developed in an environment which didn't influence you mildly and encouragingly, and perhaps you felt that you have to acquire everything with difficulty. You are interested in sport and can also be involved in it, but you have to be careful about injuries, since you may be prone to them.

Mars trine MC

You are usually decisive, energetic, enterprising and hard-working, with healthy ambitions and the ability to reach actual results and success. You have good strategic abilities, are methodical, persistent and strong-willed, and you are also to some extent understanding of others. You value honor, so you can work well with people, although you are combative and competitive and have leadership aspirations. You are interested in ‘male’ areas, such as traffic and sport, which you are perhaps also involved in, you also have a good nose for business and a good feeling of taking the right actions at the right moment. You know many and often also the ‘right people’.
