I remember you asked me about how you could be so reserved despite having an Aries Rising + Moon, and if it had to do with it's progressions into Taurus. I think there are a couple of explanations. The one I want to focus on is the fact of your chart being a night chart, which according to sect theory means that there is a temperance of more aggressive energies as a result of the cooling of the night. This also means that the coldness increases naturally "cool" energies too, like the Moon and Venus, and makes Saturn more frigid and intemperate.
You could go through some of the placements of planets in signs and compare the differences of them compared to them being in day vs. night charts.

Then, it's a Virgo Mars that rules your ascendant, which will increase strategic action and decrease wanton recklessness and acting out, all the more so when it's cooled by the night. It's said to be a good placement for military strategists as a result.
