Mars in Scorpio

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Linda 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 12th house

You are a sensitive person who is usually very interested in fellow man, his motives, desires and goals and you also understand other people very well – that is why you are successful as explorer and detective, in social work and medicine, also in veterinary medicine. You also have a lot of sense and understanding for those who are in some way handicapped (mentally or physically) or those who give in to fate. You have exceptional inner strength and great influence on others, but you are not very open and you often hide something.

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 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 conjunction Ascendant

You are a decisive and dynamic person with enormous inner strength and energy. You have a restless, impulsive, fiery and passionate nature. You often have good motivational skills and encourage others with your energy and audaciousness. You are ambitious, combative and competitive, interested in sports and perhaps also involved in them. You quickly get upset and often react strongly and tumultuously, sometimes you are also troubled by injuries. Perhaps there is some special – and not too 'gentle' – circumstance concerning your birth (such as premature or difficult birth etc.) or the earliest period of your life.
