Mars in Astrology

Published December 17, 2019 · Updated September 16, 2025 · by dxpnet Astrology Team

Mars is the spark that gets you moving. It describes your drive, courage, libido, competitive edge, and the way you fight for what matters. In the natal chart, Mars shows how you pursue goals, set boundaries, and handle anger. In transit, it wakes up whichever life area it touches, speeding timelines and stirring conflict if energy has nowhere productive to go.
