Edgar Degas’s birth chart
Mars in Taurus
19 July 1834, 20:30, Paris, France
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Edgar 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 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 square Uranus
On the inside, you are very restless, passionate, impulsive, energetic and fast, also impatient, you are prone to being irritable and you quickly get agitated, especially if things happen too slowly or not the way you imagine. You are something special, original, unpredictable and you can change course or object of interest and action at any moment. Because of your self-will and impatience you often find yourself in arguments with others.
