Mars in Scorpio

29 December 1938, 11:50, Yonkers, NY, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Jon 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 Scorpio

You have a strong will and strong spirit. What you set up to do (and what you promise to do!), you do. With as much exertion, will and commitment, as is required. You never do things in halfway manner and you despise lazy people. You have extreme physical strength, are very combative and stubborn. You are into sports, are interested in health, hygiene, martial arts, training of body and mind. You are extremely attractive and charismatic, very passionate, in intimate relationships committed, impetuous and fiery, and also possessive, jealous and aggressive. You dedicate to something slowly and with difficulty, but if/when you do, you are capable of the most passionate and intense emotions.

Mars in 7th house

In personal relationships, you are usually rather nonconformist and often even quarrelsome; you are basically looking for a partner that is at your level (but because such Mars position is actually often rather problematic when it comes to relationships, you are often found in the midst of tumultuous and temperamental love or/and partner relationship). In this sense, you actually have a pretty difficult character and are also attracted to a partner with such character. You are a dominant person, but you don't stand others being henpecked, so a relationship with you is (at least) interesting.

Mars inconjunct Saturn

You are usually energetic, ambitious and enterprising, but not always patient and tactful enough, also not too understanding. You don't always have sense of individual levels of progression and also not of hierarchy. You don't like authorities too much and can be in bad relationships with them.

Mars opposition Uranus

You are fast and dynamic, very restless and impetuous, often literally charged with energy. You are passionate and impulsive, also jerky, unpredictable and moody. Your mood can change in a heartbeat, you often get upset and excited, angry and also quarrelsome, but your anger and excitement can quickly calm down. Because of all these characteristics, your cooperation with others can sometimes be problematic and people find you difficult, also eccentric, but because you are full of energy, they also find you interesting and attractive, so other people definitely notice you and those, who find your fiery and also rebellious nature attractive, follow and support you.

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.
