| Mars |
Mars is the planet
of power, strength, courage and aggression. It measures our ability to
project force in life. On the positive side, a strong Mars is necessary
to give us the energy, will, confidence and independence--the qualities
it shares with Sun--to carry out our endeavors. Without it we have no
real interests, passions and motivations, no determination, no real intensity
or ability to carry out anything to the end and really accomplish it.
On the negative
side, this same aggression brings about competition, argument and conflict
and when unchecked by other factors, it causes domination, control, violence
and injury. He is the general significator for injury, accident, conflict
and marital disharmony. Mars is very selfish and does not take into account
the views and needs of others. In a more positive light, these difficulties
come about because Mars insists upon greater independence, differentiation
and clarity of views. He makes us more certain of who we are and who our
friends are. He causes discontent and seeking until we discover the real
source of power within us.
