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 Gemini
You are a vital, youthful, fast, dynamic and agile person. You are always in motion and are hard to catch. You have an irritable and restless nature, you love debates and arguments that go on and on, persuading others and getting up people's noses. You are always on the lookout, you rarely feel completely relaxed. You are successful in fast and dynamic professions, you have good reflexes, sense of rhythm and you probably do well in traffic. However, you need to control your thoughtfulness and absence of action, because you can't finish and carry out everything you want because you are extremely interested in numerous areas.
