Mars in Taurus

1 July 1977, 06:00, New York City, NY, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Liv 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 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 square Saturn

You are usually decisive, energetic, enterprising and ambitious, also stubborn. You have a strong desire to succeed in business, but you also often have a rigid character and are not perceptive to other ways, you know the best and do the best. You are critical and demanding, you can also be harsh and even cruel. You aren't too understanding of others, so you can't always cooperate with them well and your business path can be difficult because of it, until you try to also put yourself in other people's shoes and start nurturing compassion.

Mars inconjunct Neptune

You are sensitive and emotional and you often try to suppress or at least hide this, so you wouldn't seem too soft, so you are often in conflict with yourself and you run away to your dream world and/or in laziness. All your actions depend on how you feel and you often work intensely at the last minute.

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.
