Rudolf Steiner’s birth chart
Mars in Taurus
25 February 1861, 22:56, Donji Kraljevec, Croatia
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Rudolf 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 6th house
You commit to your work conscientiously and with devotion, you always set exacting goals and also try to realize them. You direct all your energy mostly to work and consequently, to validation of your own worth. That is why you are a demanding person, to others and perhaps even more to yourself and because of this, you have problems with your digestion and similar issues. You give your best in every project. Because you have a perfectionist nature and want to get everything done (and also in time), you always behave very quickly and nervously and that is why you often experience injuries, hits, high fever, etc.
Mars trine Saturn
You are diligent, decisive, practical, organized and persistent, you have enormous strength and physical ability and good renewal ability. You tackle manifold businesses and projects, including heavy and strenuous work that demands good physical condition. You are methodical and have good strategic abilities, you like planning and often set high goals, which you often also fulfill, because they are clear and realistic and because you are also ambitious, motivated and also strong-willed. You have leadership abilities and others acknowledge this role to you and are also prepared to follow you, because they appreciate you, all in all, also because of the actual results you achieve.
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 opposition Ascendant
You are usually passionate and fiery, also fast and restless. You calm down with difficulty and are always in motion or involved with something. You are bored, when and if nothing is happening. You are not always patient and tolerant, also not tactful. You often have an unpredictable, reckless, impulsive character and react too quickly and too strongly, because you have difficulty restraining yourself and so you may also experience misunderstandings or disputes with others. Your extreme need for manifestation of power and energy, which is sometimes, unfortunately, also destructive, can originate from the earliest life period, when it perhaps developed in an environment which didn't influence you mildly and encouragingly, and perhaps you felt that you have to acquire everything with difficulty. You are interested in sport and can also be involved in it, but you have to be careful about injuries, since you may be prone to them.
