MarsMars is the fourth planet from the sun. This red planet is extremely fiery and masculine in nature. In short, it defines aggressive energy in a human being. Quite aptly, Mars is the dominant planet for anyone excelling in military, martial arts, athletics, police and fire department, or in any other competitive field. Mars is also strongly marked in people associated with production of weapons and explosives. The technical and mechanical expertise given by this planet also calls for builders, designers, surgeons, engineers and professional dealing in real estate.

Mars provides a person with independent individuality and idealism. This planet rules the signs of Aries and Scorpio. While Mars is known to give open aggressiveness to Arians, the aggressiveness is much secretive in Scorpio. Martians are also known for strong passionate and sexual affiliations. Under its strong influence (as made out from the chart), the subject can be of short temper and animalistic nature with amazing vitality.

According to one of the many versions Indian mythology, Mangal (Mars) was born out of Shiva`s semen directly, when the long embrace between Shiva and Parvati was broken by lord Indra`s intrusion.

Mars is strong when placed in its own houses of Aries and Scorpio. It is exalted in the sign of Capricorn, and debilitated in the sign of cancer. Jupiter, sun and moon are its natural friends. Venus and Saturn are neutral entities to Mars, while Rahu, Ketu and Mercury are its enemies. If placed well in the horoscope, Mars give good drive for success, strength to character and good administrative ability to the person. When its ill placed, Mars makes the person short tempered, violent, and cruel. It can cause physical harm to the person under its strength and make him waste energy on worthless things. A weak Mars in a person`s horoscope depicts lack of any drive, ambition, stamina or a strong character.
