Your Mars Sign
    (Credit to Julia McCArthyâs The Stars Within You book)
So what exactly is our Mars sign? Mars is considered an inner planet, meaning planets closest to Earth. These planets help us shape our basic personality. Mercury is our mind and how we speak, Venus is our creativity, love language, and our values, and Mars is our drive, passions, temperament, and sexuality. Mars is a masculine planet and masculine planets represent our physical energy.
Aries: Aries Mars individuals know exactly what they want and wonât hesitate when it comes to taking action. Theyâre blessed with the gift of being bold and courageous. While they may be quick to know what it is they want, they are also very quick to change their minds about whatever it is they were pursuing originally. Aries Mars are also known to be impulsive and have a short fuse when it comes to getting angry. Itâs important that they practice restraint and mindfulness, also they would excel in sports with all the energy they have.
Taurus: Taurus Mars individuals are able to take their time when it comes to going after what it is they want. They find beauty in moving slow which is where the stereotype of Taurus placements being lazy comes in. Taurus Mars placements are blessed with the gift of manifestation due to them valuing the process of taking their time and they usually want to manifest something worth a lot of money (luxury items and anything that can stimulate their physical desires.) Taurus Mars individuals need to work on not being so stubborn in arguments. Them bottling in every motion can lead to an explosive argumentative episode in the end.
Gemini: Gemini Mars placements not only love to share their thoughts but they also love to debate. In fact, they are gifted with the skill of debating. These individuals are quite curious and could possibly make good teachers and writers if they ever wanted to pursue that route. Gemini Mars individuals need their mind stimulated and they will also be able to do the same for you. Gemini Mars placements need to find healthy ways to distract themselves from their overactive mind. They could do this by developing a routine, painting, running, etc. Overthinking can lead to anxiety if they arenât careful.
Cancer: Blessed with the gifts of being deeply sensitive, intuitive, and nurturing, these individuals can easily persuade someone to do something because of their âsoftâ charm. This is because they have the power to adjust to the energy around them, therefore making it easy for them to influence others. Due to their sensitivity around other people, this can also make them become moody very fast. They tend to snap easily and become very irritable. Cancer Mars placements also struggle with getting over people due to struggling with codependency. When Cancer Mars placements are doing anything revolving energy work, it helps them stay grounded.
Leo: Leo Mars individuals have very magnetic souls. Sometimes they can be a bit dramatic but they have the gift of achieving large goals due to their determination and directness. Leo Mars placements thrive when they are able to express themselves creatively whether that be through music or poetry. They can be fun to be around but sometimes they can be a little too self centered and arrogant to an extent. Them being overly dramatic can lead to jealousy in a lot of situations.
Virgo: Virgo Mars individuals are very hands on and extreme planners. These individuals are blessed with the gifts of integrity and being able to notice very small details in any situation. These skills would be perfect for someone wanting to go into the healthcare industry, even social work. Virgo Mars individuals are also very health oriented and are very selfless not only with lovers but with anyone around them. Them having the ability to pay attention to detail helps them reach their desires and goals easily. Virgo Mars placements need to invest in activities that help them release tension from the nervous system. They need to be mindful that they can easily become too perfectional. Also, Virgo Mars placements need to work on seeing the bigger picture more and having a more imaginative mind.
Libra: Libra Mars individuals can be angered easily. This may come as quite of a shock to people if they donât realize that their sister sign is Aries. Libra Mars individuals struggle with the need for approval and validation. They love luxurious items and vulgarity is a major turn off with them. Libra Mars individuals are driven by aesthetics and move very gracefully, much like Taureans. These individuals also thrive best in a setting that is very luxurious. Libra Mars individuals have the gift of considering both sides carefully before agreeing with someone or taking action. However, this can make them very indecisive and very lazy. They need to work on the ability to face confrontation.Â
Scorpio: Scorpio Mars individuals are what you would consider dare devils. They are driven by danger and mystery and tend to be obsessive when it comes to going after what they want. These individuals are independent and fixated on getting what it is they desire. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING can get in their way of achieving something. These individuals can also struggle with being overly obsessive, controlling, jealous, and resentful, leading to an explosive episode in the future. Their powerful auras can help them work in the public and they have the gift of a very vivid imagination. These individuals would thrive in artistic environments.
Sagittarius: Sagittarius Mars individuals are very adventurous and enthusiastic. They constantly need to be doing something while also trying something new in the process. They rarely, if ever stick to the same thing. These individuals can easily become reckless and impulsive due to them lacking practicality sometimes. Sagittarius Mars individuals tend to be drawn to anything related to spirituality, including Yoga and Buddhism. In order for these individuals to be satisfied, they need freedom, laughter, and constant variation.
Capricorn: Capricorn Mars individuals are steady and grounded when it comes to their accomplishments. These individuals do tend to lack emotion and often have a fear of asking for help/being vulnerable. Their ability to move steady and take their time helps them succeed and gain recognition in the future. Capricorn Mars individuals do need to avoid overworking themselves and being too cautious. They tend to get a little too comfortable in the situation theyâre in yet still attempt to tell themselves that they arenât doing enough in the process. Taking risks and understanding that itâs okay to be emotional will help these individuals thrive even more. Theyâd make great comedians if they wanted to pursue that route.
Aquarius: Aquarius Mars Individuals thrive off of expressing what is on their mind. The truth is, theyâre always talking to themselves and they need someone to be able to express their ideas and conspiracies to. This, however, can also be one of their weaknesses. They tend to be very close minded when it comes to hearing an opposing viewpoint and can struggle with backing up their original idea due to not knowing too much about the subject. These individuals are very open minded when it comes to trying new things and will do anything that society may deem as âweirdâ or âunacceptable.â They definitely have the gift of being stable and patient when theyâre with the right people.
Pisces: Pisces Mars individuals thrive off of fantasy and imagination. Many musicians and other creative individuals tend to have this placement as well. Them being very emotional can get in the way of them being practical. They also need a lot of alone time due to them being sensitive around energy and need to put a lot of their energy into creative projects. Boundaries are important for these individuals otherwise they can become distant and resentful due to them putting their all in another individual.Â
