Mars in Capricorn

8 November 1935, 03:25, Sceaux, France

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Alain 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 Capricorn

Mars feels good in this sign; you are a firm, persistent, diligent and hard-working person, also honest, loyal and faithful. You probably have a practical and reliable character and a lot of personal strength. You are extremely capable and persistent, capable of great exertion and tiresome work. You are organized, methodical and disciplined in everything you do. At first glance, you seem somewhat reserved in intimate relationships, but you are actually bursting with passion and sensuality. In relationships, you value faithfulness and commitment, however, you are too proud and stubborn. You can also be cruel and, in some way, distant.

Mars in 3rd house

You are a lively and dynamic person, sociable and even dependent of company, but sometimes you act in caustic, ironical, intolerant and even sarcastic way. Because you have a slightly quarrelsome nature, you put a lot of dynamics into personal, family, neighbor and other relationships. You are interested in everything, you have a very adaptable, active and flexible character, you are a good writer and speaker and you have personal, direct and, to some people, offensive style. You are attracted to journalism, etc.

Mars sextile Saturn

You are usually hard-working, diligent, conscientious and reliable. You often have an ambitious and also enterprising nature. You are organized, you organize your time and accumulate your energy well. You often have a good nose for business, you have will power and ambitions. You have support from important people.

Mars trine Uranus

You are dynamic, flexible, agile, moveable and fast, you are always planning something and looking into the future. You are interested in technics, novelties and progress, are curious, original and inventive. Your ways and approaches are innovative and creative, sometimes you are a true inventor. You can work in areas which not many people find appealing or you do something others find unusual or in some way special. You have an open and audacious spirit, others often find you exciting and attractive, that is why you are usually popular and have numerous acquaintances and friendships in versatile circles. You are naturally intelligent, extremely responsive and inventive, you usually have good coordination and sense of space.

Mars square Ascendant

You are energetic and have enormous physical abilities, but you don't always organize them best and you either waste your energy or you don't have enough of it. You are extremely motivated, competitive and combative, also (self)destructive, that is why you are prone to injuries. If things aren't happening fast enough or as you imagine them to, you try to speed them up, sometimes with inconsideration and even violence, so your relationships with others aren't easy. These characteristics of yours can be the consequence of feeling unaccepted and of lacking attention in early period of life (and you perhaps feel that you always have to prove yourself).

Mars opposition MC

You are usually very energetic, decisive, combative and competitive. Sometimes you even exaggerate in being competitive and are impatient, inconsiderate and untactful. You don't always respect authorities, you are stubborn and rebellious, you don't like being in subordinate position. You have leadership characteristics and abilities, but you often lack compassion (although you, on the other hand, demand a lot of it for yourself). You don't understand that others perhaps don't have as much energy as you do and are too strict, critical and demanding towards them. You like to prove (yourself), are prone to cynicism and quarrelsomeness. You don't want to hear objections and you don't like compromises, so your relationships with others are sometimes difficult and problematic.
