Mars in Capricorn

6 December 1982, 18:45, Madrid, Spain

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Alberto 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 8th house

You are a passionate and demanding person with strong desires and needs. You don't like things being done half-way, that is why you are responsible and reliable in business, and fiery and committed on the emotional or personal level. Emotionally, you also do things ultimately, because you (usually) have a possessive and jealous nature and you want to be the one pulling all the strings and want to dominate. In partner relationships, you are often difficult and demanding, but your emotions are fiery and deep and you usually love with commitment and from the heart.

Mars as culminating planet

Because Mars is your culminating planet, you have a strong will and a lot of work energy and drive. You are a natural warrior and leader and although you are not always the most tactful person, people follow you because of your enthusiasm, life strength and energy, which you usually radiate. Whatever you do, you do with enthusiasm. You are often successful in politics, army, also sport. With your direct approach, competitiveness and combativeness, you get on people's nerves and often meet people who put a spoke in your wheel.

Mars sextile Jupiter

You are usually dynamic, energetic, honest and well-intentioned. You are flexible and perceptive of new things and new approaches. You are usually pretty well-informed, you are interested in daily events, often also in traffic and sports.

Mars square Saturn

You are usually decisive, energetic, enterprising and ambitious, also stubborn. You have a strong desire to succeed in business, but you also often have a rigid character and are not perceptive to other ways, you know the best and do the best. You are critical and demanding, you can also be harsh and even cruel. You aren't too understanding of others, so you can't always cooperate with them well and your business path can be difficult because of it, until you try to also put yourself in other people's shoes and start nurturing compassion.

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 inconjunct Ascendant

You are often in a sort of conflict with yourself and this often originates from a pattern from your early period of life, when you perhaps felt that you need to especially prove and validate yourself, because you perhaps lacked attention and validation or thought you weren't appreciated enough. So you can either engage in all possible areas to find confirmation or you withdraw to inactivity and laziness, if you give up because of disappointment.
