Mars in Cancer

14 July 1919, 09:30, Parma, Italy

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Lino 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 11th house

Often you focus all your life and all your energy to charity and similar projects. You are a humanist, involved in fighting for human and animal rights, you are interested in ecology. You work very well in groups or under patronage of a bigger organization, you yourself often introduce novelties into existing and accepted systems – in science and spirituality or in computer science and mathematics. You like making all sorts of acquaintances and friendships, but you are basically a naive person and aren't always the best judge of what company is actually cool for you.

Mars as culminating planet

Because Mars is your culminating planet, you have a strong will and a lot of work energy and drive. You are a natural warrior and leader and although you are not always the most tactful person, people follow you because of your enthusiasm, life strength and energy, which you usually radiate. Whatever you do, you do with enthusiasm. You are often successful in politics, army, also sport. With your direct approach, competitiveness and combativeness, you get on people's nerves and often meet people who put a spoke in your wheel.

Mars trine Uranus

You are dynamic, flexible, agile, moveable and fast, you are always planning something and looking into the future. You are interested in technics, novelties and progress, are curious, original and inventive. Your ways and approaches are innovative and creative, sometimes you are a true inventor. You can work in areas which not many people find appealing or you do something others find unusual or in some way special. You have an open and audacious spirit, others often find you exciting and attractive, that is why you are usually popular and have numerous acquaintances and friendships in versatile circles. You are naturally intelligent, extremely responsive and inventive, you usually have good coordination and sense of space.

Mars conjunction Pluto

You are a passionate person with enormous energy and strength, but you don't always succeed in accumulating and taking advantage of them, that is why it is very important for you that you find the appropriate way to release excessive energy. You can find this in sports which you are often involved in. You can even achieve good results in sport and other areas once you learn to control the 'lower passions', such as exaggerated reactions, being too impetuous and tendency to violence.

Mars sextile Ascendant

You are usually a flexible, adaptable person who likes to move. For you, how you feel in your body is important to you and you are interested in all forms of physical activity; you like sports and are often also involved in them. You have good sense of rhythm and good coordination.
