Mars in Cancer

14 May 1944, 05:40, Modesto, CA, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to George 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 Cancer

All your actions depend on emotions and on how you feel at that particular moment. You enjoy working in peace and quiet, you definitely have a hobby in life that relaxes you and it is probably connected to beautiful things or art. In peace and quiet you create, carve, paint, collect antiques, you work from the background. At first glance, you may not radiate a lot of physical power, but are overcome with exceptional passion when you relax and feel at home (you are almost certainly a good lover), you are also a very persistent and reliable person – but everything depends on how you feel.

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 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.
