Mars is the planet that rules Aries. This means that both of their energies are very similar and synchronous with each other. This is a time of great confidence, increased drive and powerful beginnings. Let us consider how such a combination affects the character and life of men and women.
Transit
Mars is an action planet. When he is in Aries, he is at the top of the world. He is strong, independent and cruel. There is absolutely nothing that will stand in his way and be able to interfere, no matter what he wants to achieve. Mars in Aries always triumphs.
Aries of Fire is a cardinal sign characterized by spontaneity, activity and innovation. Therefore, Mars fits perfectly into this rapidly evolving environment. Since there is little resistance in Aries during Mars, he practically feels that the obstacles are melting. But this does not mean that they have completely disappeared - we are just too convinced and confident in their absence. Although we are likely to encounter these obstacles at some point along the road, this is not the point of Mars in Aries. Transit is not planning. It is about moving forward, regardless of what may stand in our way.
We will want to pave the way, push ourselves and train our bodies and minds. We are more likely to do what we never did before during this transit. Mars and Aries are both trying to achieve a result. Success comes from participation, not from conquest.
Although this incredible surge of energy can be beneficial, it can also be a problem in our lives and relationships. Since we are less concerned about the consequences at this time, we may exhibit impulsive behavior. We may find that we are experiencing more outbursts of anger or that our direct approach to solving problems annoys others. Mars in Aries makes us all feel at our place in any situation. This self-confidence has another side to the coin - inadequate aggression.
In the natal chart
People born with Mars in Aries are extremely active natures. You are movable and action-oriented, so it is difficult for you to stay idle for too long. Both Mars and Aries are energy and movement. Combining them in your card fills your spirit with perseverance and motivation.
You are persistent, easily overcome the competition. You have a strong fighting spirit, you do not retreat before anything. Your self-confidence also makes it easier for you to explore new territories. When others can wait for someone to make their first move, you enjoy the opportunity to enter uncharted waters. The desire to be the first makes you feel important and enriches your innovative spirit.
In love, you are passionate and temperamental, like to take the initiative. Aries is a sign of yourself, and all your action-oriented energy in this independent sign can make it difficult for you to focus on the needs or well-being of others. One of your biggest lessons in this life is to find a balance between your own needs and those of your loved ones.
Ego idea
“I did it my own way” is your life motto. You know what you need. Know how to get it. However, be aware of limits that may affect your personal growth. Focusing time and attention on yourself is good. You are more comfortable with the idea of ego than others. However, your personal focus is usually more about getting what you want at the moment, rather than what you need in the end. To feel comfortable in the future, it would be wise for you to pay attention to the points of view and suggestions of others. It is not necessary to use everywhere and always only your powerful personality, go to the walls alone, use your power to break down barriers. Better to find the most effective ways to do things. Just because you didn’t come up with it yourself doesn’t mean you won’t get something unbelievable from it. Learn to let the soul transcend its ego.
disadvantages
Aries in Mars does not necessarily reach the finish line. This is a competitive Mars with bursts of activity that is quickly dying out.
It goes well with the fiery Aries. Mars is the ruler of Aries and is in its place. You are a starter, but not necessarily a finisher. You shine in the role where your work should be the catalyst.
Your face is flushed with passion when you enter the mode of action, even if others try to be careful. You leave details to others when you move on to the next flash of inspiration.
Inspiration from others
You can activate an impulse that takes ideas beyond the concept to the forefront of current events. Some may be afraid of your impulsiveness, believing that you are careless with details. In our culture, you can challenge others who have no meaning and deal with the other side of things.
Someone may decide that you are too stubborn and do it for your own mercantile purposes. You will distinguish when your temperament makes sense, and when others allow you to get what you want out of fear of you.
But your ability to achieve results and surprise everyone with success is winning fans. It also makes you a dynamic leader.
In addition, your intellectual abilities help you persuade others. You do not take into account discontent, but you are often forced to deal with incipient indignation from others.
Glory and greatness
If you don’t pay attention to the fact that there are living people nearby, you will involuntarily “burn bridges”. This is a lesson that you will learn as you walk your life path. People should feel valuable and needed.
You can get glory for starting a movement. But you become a true leader when you recognize all the co-authors along the way.
Juggernaut man
Aries Man / Mars in Pisces is a very impulsive, rude person, whose destructive potential sometimes needs to be restrained. Children with this Mars are small daredevils prone to sudden movements. They often scare their parents with impulsiveness and unpredictability.
Great if you have the ability to control your strength. Many carriers of Mars in Aries are engaged in martial arts for this.
If Aries's power is blocked, it can lead to rage and physical abuse. Your strength is actions in which there is a directed, strong surge of energy. You have little time for boredom.
Destructive Power Control
Pursue your own passions and take risks. People around you will be surprised by your courage, restraint, fresh thinking. Plan your adventure dates and get ready to go even to the ends of the world. Be fit. Fight and achieve everything - this is your motto in life!
Passionate lover
When it comes to sex, you catch fire with strong passions that crush others. You love to pursue and win, you are tired of passive lovers. The compatibility of Mars in Aries is very predictable. With this combination of celestial signs, your style is best suited for Scorpions or other fiery signs similar or similar to yours (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius).
Mars in Aries in a woman
The fiery sign of this woman is perfectly combined with the planetary energy of action, giving her extremely dynamic attributes, affecting everything that Mars represents on her natal chart. Mars in Aries for a woman is a very harmonious and natural arrangement. It will give her a surplus of energy, which can affect the material body. This is especially pronounced if Mars is somehow connected with the Ascendant, a line of cards or planets in the First House. However, the value of Mars in Aries in houses varies only slightly, which depends on the value of each particular house.
Mars, as a rule, controls the activity and our aspiration. The red planet governs our actions and areas of life where we apply our energy to get results, but it can also show living spaces where the struggle for our goals receives resistance from other people (or life itself). Naturally, this planet is also associated with any kind of violence and anger, as it is rather impatient and explosive. Against the background of even brutal men, Mars in Aries for women makes them real "domins" and mistresses of life.
Patronage of Ares
Since ancient times, the red planet was given the name of the Greek god of war, Ares and its Roman equivalent, Mars. His energy is extremely courageous, symbolizing the archetype of a man (together with the Sun, since this is one side of the Sun-Moon double axis). Its opposite counterpart is Venus, creating with it the axis of Mars - Venus in Aries as another archetypal incarnation of Yin - Yang. An interesting fact is that even the ancients were careful with the forces represented by the gods Ares (Mars). There were very few temples of Ares, when compared with all the other gods of the Greek Pantheon. Of course, he received his share of respect, but without special sacraments and cults of fans, since war and violence were always undesirable.
Analyzing this through a psychological filter, we can say that he was in a fairly calm mode, being called out only when the war had already erupted in order to raise his spirits and create holy madness for the soldiers.
Planetary aspect
In the sign of Aries, Mars is considered domicile. Thus, it has its highest efficiency. It should be noted that Mars takes about two months to move to the next sign. Once every two years, Mars has a period of retrograde motion, where it moves backwards on a heavenly canvas. The Sun in Aries - Mars in Aries are very powerful combinations for the natal chart, since the fiery planet works with the utmost power and can become an endless source of energy even with regard to the whole nation! Of course, this combination can be extremely eruptive and must be carefully controlled by each individual. A conscious approach to the functions of Mars can help him direct all this abundance towards healthy and productive actions, reducing any possibilities of uncontrolled and extreme expressions. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and the planet Mars is its ruling celestial body.
Aries is also the natural ruler of the First House, which rules our ego, as well as our body and head. This will make Aries in Mars pretty selfish and competitive. Such a placement creates the archetype of a warrior and a winner. The listed features are repeatedly associated with the physical body, which helps to become athletes, citizens who join military or other types of power units. In addition, he gives a tendency to become a hero, a pioneer who decides to jump first into the fire while everyone else is standing and waiting. Despite the fact that the last phrase can be taken metaphorically, this aspect really helps people choose the profession of firefighters. They are very quick not only in decision making, but also in action. This is another reason that makes them excellent in martial arts and sports, because their body can be even faster than their mind.
Irascible temperament
Mars in Aries in a man creates a hot-tempered temperament bordering on aggressiveness. However, their anger can pass as quickly as it begins. Of course, they must protect themselves and others from this trait of their character. This character trait can be dangerous for people around if anger is unfounded or is the result of a misunderstanding. If you have this flaw, be sure to try to tame your reactions and wait for your mind to clear. This is especially true if you notice uncontrollable temper. When the retrograde Mars in Aries undergoes adverse affects from others, attacks of anger can occur in the individual, causing significant aggression. The best way to deal with the problem is to abandon the excessive energy of Mars through sports or other activities that are associated with physical work. Consultations of the psychologist can also help.
Stubbornness
Persons with this arrangement of signs are stubborn in the worst sense of the word. On the other hand, they expect the same from other people. It is usually difficult to find such partners, which can lead to misunderstandings on both sides. "Martian" people will be furious if someone indirectly tries to push them to some actions that are not in their interests, or try to convince.
Determination
Their decisions and actions are incredibly fast. Even if they have a predefined behavior strategy, the result of their actions will still be completely different than expected or planned. They just don't have time to plan a strategy. Only intuition can be a tool for making the right decisions. Imagine a karate fighter. He really does not think about what step he will take, he just does it. This is the nature of Mars in the constellation Aries.
We examined how the planet Mars in the zodiac constellation Aries affects the character and fate of man.
