Mars
Mars is the final personal planet in the solar system, much like Venus, it rules our passionate side though you won't find any romance here.
Mars is the planet of raw energy, action, and desire. Mars is the part of ourselves that works as a survival instinct. The sign that Mars sits in shows our basic sexual nature/attractions, what makes us angry/how we express those feelings, our instincts and our competitive spirits. When Mars is weakly placed in the natal chart (set in Cancer or having many squares) then it can cause a person to direct their aggressive energies inward which can lead to self destructive behaviors. The house that mars sits in shows where in life we feel the strongest amount of drive and how we express our enthusiasm.
Mars takes anywhere from two to two and a half years to make its way through all 12 signs of the zodiac, staying in each sign for about a month and a half. When you are acting out your Mars in a negative fashion you may be rash and impulsive, though on the flip side Mars can be a great motivator if you harness it's powers positively.
