Mars
is the planet of power, strength, courage and
aggression. It measures our ability to project
force in life. On the positive side, a strong
Mars is necessary to give us the energy, will,
confidence and independence--the qualities it
shares with Sun--to carry out our endeavours.
Without it we have no real interests, passions
and motivations, no determination, no real
intensity or ability to carry out anything to
the end and really accomplish it.

Mars as preceded by

deity and to energize all the higher powers of the
Mars. |
