09 Mar Astrology 101: The Planets – Mars

Stamina and Sex Drive

Mars is the action planet of the zodiac. The ‘Red Planet,’ after all, should be pretty fiery, and Mars does not disappoint. Energy, passion, drive and determination are all right up Mars’s alley. This planet commands you (and yes, Mars does rule the military) to stand up, be noticed and get things done; sitting on the sidelines belongs somewhere else in the heavens. Simply put, Mars speaks to the power and confident expression of the individual.

Mars dictates our survival energy and the shape that energy assumes as we define ourselves in terms of the larger world. It represents the individualization process, particularly in romantic relationships. A weak Mars placement in a woman’s chart may make her too passive and submissive in a love relationship, especially if her significant other has a strongly placed Mars.

The planet Mars describes how you use energy in life. It also indicates your physical stamina and the nature of your sexual drive with a partner. Mars is also the expression of your desire for personal achievement.

My Mars is in Aquarius. This means that my unique approach may brand me as an eccentric. I act independently to achieve my goals, which are often directed toward humanity in general. Apparently my approach to sex is apt to be rather unemotional. With Mars, the planet of energy and drive, in an Air sign, these individuals get off on mental and intellectual pursuits. Aquarius is a somewhat scattered sign, even though it’s persevering in the long haul. If there’s a method to their madness, it isn’t always easy to see. Projects are taken on with a shotgun-style approach with this position of Mars. Mars in Air signs are generally quite clever at getting what they want; in Aquarius, they are particularly adept at getting their way. One of the most pleasant characteristics of Mars in Aquarius natives is their willingness to let others be. They place a lot of value in freedom and individuality; theirs and yours.
