Mars in Aries

Mars

Mars shows your ability to take assertive action; your capacity for aggression; your outward sexual expression; your use of energy, force and willpower to achieve your ambitions and desires; your ability to be direct and independent; and your competitive spirit.

Mars represents your ability to stir things up in your world, to fight for what you want and defend yourself and what's important to you. Mars is your Inner Warrior ... with all the sense and savagery contained in that inner self that is designed to protect you and help you survive ... no matter what.

It signifies your capacity to be autonomous and self-assertive, to act on impulse, to compete for your goals in the face of opposition, and to champion your own ambitions with your own work and effort.

Mars takes approximately two years to travel through all twelve signs of the Zodiac, and it will retrograde once during that cycle -- for about 2 1/2 months at a time.

Mars in Aries

When Mars is in Aries, either in a birth chart or in the sky in present-day time, people focus on actions and favor ambitions that are adventurous, pioneering, and assertive. They use tactics and viewpoints that are independent and aggressive, that rely on individual initiative, that have a distinct element of competition, and that respond well to a "direct approach."

This energy is known for being "active" regarding matters of personal drive and promotion. It is very "up-front and honest" about its goals and desires . . . and its willingness to go after results by the most direct route available.
