My Mars is in Aries, so it should feel at home, but I don't exactly act upon it. I have difficulties expressing myself in an assertive way, I'm rather passive-aggressive, and I don't have enough confidence to act most of the time. The impusivity and fast pace that should come with this placement? Lost on me. I was thinking that it could be because Mars squares my Neptune and Uranus in Capricorn. Any thoughts on this? Mars is also in sextile with my Moon/Venus (they're conjunct). Should this give me any clues on what I should do to revitalize my Mars? T__T Thank youu
some advice for my mars please?:(
- Thread starter meowll
- Start date
It's in my 9th house on the equal houses system and in my 10th if you use aaaaa an unequal houses system, like the one they use on horoscopeswithin for example. I know they have a name but I'm just starting on astrology and I have no idea... So if I take it like it's in my 9th, it's not so important, but it'd be important in the 10th?

so then according to Whole Sign HousesI have Cancer as my ascendant
your natal Mars is in 10th Whole Sign House
easily check this on Extended Chart Selection Page of astro.com
there you find a selection of fourteen different house systems
and if
whole sign houses is selected
then whole sign houses shows a 10th House Mars
experiment by selecting any other house system
such as Alcabitius for example
and notice that the house location of any planet
is entirely dependent on the house system chosen

There is no "right" or "wrong" house system
astrologers all have their own personal preferences

'...In no other area of astrology is there so much mess and confusion than in the area of the so-called "houses".
There are at least twenty or thirty different house systems or means of dividing the so-called "birthchart" into twelve segments of life activity.
In astrology, houses, mansions, or domains, represent general areas of life activity and are the grounding areas or arenas of expression for planets.
Originally, the words "houses" and "signs" were interchangeable or meant the same thing. A planet in Aries was also a planet in the house of Aries,
so that in effect. there were no real houses as we know them today....'
'….Artificial divisions now known as houses were attempts by early Greeks and Hindus to measure strength "points" in the horoscope,
which during 7th and 8th centuries AD were construed or confused as means of dividing the birth chart.
The ascendant and midheaven degrees and their opposites, for example, were definite power points or areas of intense focus,
but not necessarily the beginnings of a house or quadrant. ....'
Anyway, Mars doesn't rule assertiveness. It rules aggressiveness. And square to Neptune WILL cause confusion....and will weaken the Mars focus. But your other planets are necessary to give advice about how to deal with this Mars
So maybe you can post your chart so we can see all the aspects to and from Mars.

ASTROLOGICAL SIGNIFICATIONS OF THE PLANET MARS http://www.skyscript.co.uk/marsatt.html
MARS Manners when well dignified:
"....In feats of war and courage, invincible, scorning any should exceed him, subject to no reason,
bold, confident, immovable, contentious, challenging all honour to themselves, valiant,
lovers of war and things pertaining thereunto, hazarding himself to all perils, willingly will obey nobody; nor submit to any;
a large reporter of his own acts, one that fights all things in comparison of victory,
and yet of prudent behaviour in his own affairs....."
MARS Manners when badly placed:
"....Then he is a prattler without modesty or honesty, a lover of slaughter and quarrels, murder, theivery,
a promoter of sedition, frays, and commotions, and highway-thief, as wavering as the wind,
a traitor, of turbulent spirit, perjurer, obscene, rash, inhumane,
neither fearing God or caring for man, unthankful, treacherous, oppressors, ravenous, cheater, furious, violent..."

I was thinking assertiveness as a way of expressing natural aggressivity...not in a bad way, just..expressing yourself, because that's a form of aggressivity too, no? But yeah,assertiveness is more than that...
I'm posting my chart. Thank you!Attachments
Another aspectual indicator of your Mars' non-Arian traits can be found in one of the triangles in which it participates: 30-72-40 with the Sun and Sat.
This is one of the few fusion triangular configs composed entirely of positive aspects. So enjoy getting to know it...

Laid back 9th Mars it seems you just might look to your Uranian placement for that assertiveness where with the effective Venus catalyst-makes a most perfect attempt at un-ruffleing others feathers in your chart. The rulership book by Rex E. Bills gives Uranus as another avenue that allows assertiveness (not to argue but I think Mars is listed as a ways and means of that trait, being at home in His sign in Aries) from where He lists his sign rulership allows for the harmonious expression, but remember they are Malifics in horary as well as in the native configurations.
At this time Mars is in Taurus and is in Harmony with Jupiter (they share a harmonious displacement, author Doris Chase Doone announces by brotherhood of light lessons.) for whatever theme they are about (house rulers) in the chart.
P.S. If Mars is in the 10th His effect may resonate as once bitten twice shy-a theme of your character traits? You may be uneasily aware of past youthful experiences that lead to altercations-ones that were involved in making your attempts to smooth things over w result in bending over backwards-with parents or other's in authority-a catalyst to making anyone wish to develop psychology in their backbone.
A great temperament of character by the way, some come by it naturally because of youthful life experiences- a sort of positive evolving

In her book Modern Horary Astrology Author Doane gives a graph of considerations where planets create a harmony-dignity with others in signs taken from the CC Zain method of horoscopy. To that I will give some of the planets upon that list. Pluto is in Harmony within Aries and Inharmony within Libra, Neptune in harmony in Cancer, inharmony in Capricorn, Uranus harmony Libra Inharmony Aries....The book is definitive of the descriptions.
