MaaAAaARRrRrrz!

In Greek mythology, where we primarily get our Mars mythology, he was called Ares, more often spelled Aries. Ares was the son of Zeus and Hera and it is said that both parents detested him. His sister, Athene, called him "a thing of rage, made of evil, a two-faced liar." He seemed to delight in combat and violence for the pleasure of it.

In battle, Ares was not the cool, commanding strategist his sister Athene was. Ares easily lost his temper and would rush into battle hotheadedly. He was driven by his passions and he paid for that unbridled personality by reaping the displeasure and disregard of the gods and men alike. He was considered murderous, a bloodstained mankiller, stormer of cities, and a coward who ran away when wounded. Indeed, when he was wounded in battle by Diomedes, he fled angrily back to Olympus, complaining to his father, Zeus, who rejected him again.

Because the Greeks did not hold Ares in high regard, there were no sacred places built to honor him. His "holy" places were the battlefields upon which there was only pain and death and destruction.

Ares was not totally alone, however. He had no wife but he did have the love of Aphrodite (VENUS), who loved his passionate love making. Ares had three (five) children by Aphrodite. The twins, Phobos, panic, and Deimos, fear, always accompanied him on the battlefield.

Aphrodite's inability to see past the superficial led her into the arms of Ares. The passion from which their relationship was created is symbolic of the destructive attraction between men and women; love and war. Aphrodite and Ares are symbolic of the yin and the yang of universe. It is this polarity that makes for such a strong and passionate longing for one another. The attraction of Aphrodite to Ares may be in the belief that with courage comes virility, which gave him the ability to seduce her. The bond between the two divinities expresses the Greek belief that men fight for women and that the origin of war is fundamentally a rivalry for them. The destructive relationship between Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and Ares, God of War, can be seen as the polar attraction of opposites or the relationship of the masculine with the feminine.

point? my spazz is ruled by mars, i'm ruled by venus...it seems to work on so many levels. y isn't it working? MAAaaAArrRrRRrz!

ok, it's not, NOT working, but we just had an argument about vitamin b-12. it's always something...sheesh!

full disclosure - my moon/venus/mars are all in aries 😉

we both work out...a lot. so he was saying that he could take b12 as a supplement. i said you can take it but that it's not effectively absorbed orally. he called me back just now to say i was right. all is well.

they're not real arguments. we both talk shyte in a joking manner which is perfectly fine. i need a guy who's quick-witted otherwise, there will be a lot of tears...on his part. but fire is fiery all the time. fire doesn't stop being hot.

with my leo-ex, he had a commanding way about him that caused our arguments to be more like a stand-off at high-noon. usually, no one drew their pistol.

with the aries, it's like a damn rodeo and sometimes, i can't figure out which one of us is the damn bull.

ok, back to the garage 😛

sorry, i had to check on his chart again as i only started paying attention like...today.

HIM
Sun Aries
Moon Aries
Mercury Aries
Venus Taurus
Mars Aquarius

MEEEEE
Sun Taurus
Moon Aries
Mercury Taurus
Venus Aries
Mars Aries

any insight?

it's your mars in aries that does it.... lol!!!!

MIA, you're right. it dos get in the way at times. more so when i was younger. i've never liked yelling and although i do my fair share of loud talking, if it turns nasty, i'm more likely to stay even tempered. i find that ticks angry people off more 😉

you know, if there's a trend, it's when i say "but." spazzy mcgee can talk. i mean when he gets excited about something it's best to just let it flow. after a good while, i want to share what i'm thinking...even if it's to agree and that's when he gets defensive/offensive...i dunno. i think that's his mercury in aries at play.

either way, we're both characters.

@AA - stop cross posting. it's a violation of the site terms.

@AA - oh, you're talking about the mars and aphrodite thing. i thought you were talking about the tattoo you're getting on your bum. venus rules both taurus and libra.

@AA - whaaatever! and how dare you claim that i attacked you? you don't know what an attack is yet. don't press your luck.

the terms state that people over the age of 30 are allowed to cross post. you really need to read what you virtually sign. *tsk*

and bad 6 y/o that need to be spanked are fair game

@AA - you're going to stop making these veiled comments about taurus being fat 😛 you can't always believe what you read. and aphrodite/venus is complex. like a woman. she had many sides and taurus/libra reflect the dichotomy.

taurus can't help that we like purty things...like money. money is a beautiful thing.

mars on the other hand is a man. and as the story goes, your primary objective is to grunt and play hero. it's kinda sexy until mars gets a boo-boo 😢

lol...jail bait!

why'd you hide it? oh, you're a lil boy and you got embarrassed. that's too cute. i bet you still have porn mags under your mattress and a cloth next to your bed.

ok, i just grossed myself out

eeeeeeeeeewhew! who does it in a sock? you're so weird.

ok i'm thoroughly grossed out now. i gotta get back to work.

have fun and don't pull too hard.

yeah you're right. i'm ancient. i forget sometimes. first another nap THEN work.

omg this sounds like a aries+pisces thing...plus they often say Aphrodite is the pisces female

aphrodite = taurus/libra

oh my bad she seems like a pisces tho

Posted by Astrological Aftermath1
lol i was laughed my ass off when i read about the whole running off back to daddy when wounded. it reminds me of me when i act all tough trying to be a hero and it backfires.

that story makes us sound really bad tho, the whole death and destruction thing is like whoa!

oh and tubby, libra is the goddess of love, not taurus, taurus is the goddess of thick quilts and chocolate milshake. ......... it says being shallow herself not seeing past the superficial she was attracted to aries. that isn't the case for taurus, taurus people aren't shallow,.... or at least not considered shallow,

ur right AA venus is stronger in libra and libra people are considered muses not Taurus even tho they are both ruled by venus the bull is earthly and the libra is airy like fluff and clouds hence at times they can appear fake and shallow lmao.

having venus in libra and mercury in libra i noe all about it lmao 🙂

ur not wrong in a sense did u know venus is exalted in pisces because of the fish most undying love for people and things its a very powerful placement like venus in libra

i love it when small nadded men attempt to assert themselves. on a side note, i love olive garden's salads. the rest of their food tastes like crap tho.

LV, this is why you will NEVER be the true embodiment of a leo...no matter how hard you try. i know, who wants to be identified with virgo? you don't. you so desperately cling to having been born in aug that it's sad.

pan-horus/ceres ruler of taurus? earth the ruler of libra? you want to side with crackpot theorists, go right ahead but use your VIRGO rationale why dontcha? first, neither revolves around the sun. that sorta ends your crappy theory there. aside from that though, if every sign is supposed to have its own ruler, what about virgo who shares mercury with gemini? IF the theory is true, taurus gets a planet but what about virgo? that's right boo-boo. you're the astro-b*tch. MARCIA MARCIA MARCIA! virgos don't have a ruler! OH-EM-GEE! you're planetary spazz's! - http://www.librarising.com/astrology/misc/virgo.html

only a small man would think to encapsulate a woman and so narrowly define her in terms of her emotions or "muse"-ability. as woman's lib has demonstrated, we can be both nurturers and providers. we can be both soft and strong. and that my dear, is why venus rules taurus.

---

paraphrased: "Taurus is traditionally thought to be ruled by the planet Venus. However, in more recent years a few astrologers have come to believe that the true planet which governs Taurus is one named Pan-Horus, first discovered during the 1970s. Some astrologers have also speculated that the dwarf planet 1 Ceres is the true ruler of Taurus. But since it has never been stated that either 1 Ceres or Pan-Horus are actually planets, the vast majority of astrologers still consider Venus to be the planetary ruler of the Sign of Taurus, as Venus has a much more archetypical representation in Taurus than the other Venus-ruled sign, Libra." -- http://www.heybabewhatsyoursign.com/astrology-sunsigns/taurus-astrology.html

WOW i wanna be a leo i have the moon placement im happy being a virgo so its true why the bull gets its stubbornness from and cant understand logic sigh.

what does my stubbornness have to do with this discussion?

stop throwing around cliches fellow earth sign and stay grounded for once. oh wait, you're not the master of earth either.

MARCIA MARCIA MARCIA!

you're in denial.

i leave you with murderface. he's potentially a virgo.

i think dr rockzo is a virgo too 😉

@AA, your mum hasn't weened you yet?

awwh, rams are so cute when they're being aggressive. have you grown your horn yet? wait, that's what the sock is for right?

you are too young to be so raunchy. sounds like someone needs a parental block on their computer.

33...riiiiiiiiiight. i forgot when europe converted to euros, the EU member countries also decided to advance the calendar a good 20+ years. so how long have you been riding your trikee? did you pimp it out? how big are your wheels?

i haven't shaved them yet 😛

it's like 8am over there...on a sunday at that. shouldn't you be watching cartoons?

balconies? oh you brits with your silly words.

you like?

wait! you meant MINE didn't you? guess that got lost in translation.

yuck! i think i just grossed myself out 😢

you show me yours and i'll show you mine.

also little do you know, most women here are men....one man actually. his last name is slim. but he's better known as jim. he's a virgo with multiple personalities. many of them female. but each of the female personas is actually born under different signs. i could be him you know. maybe pian was on to something? the reality is, i'm not who i say i am and what you fail to realize is that you're not talking to me now. this is all a figment of your imagination.

if you want to see me naked, i starred in a feature film recently. here's the link - http://video.adultswim.com/superjail/ladies-night.html

awwh, there's my angry lil arien. how have you been? did you have your morning baa-baa? you sleep well? tummy all full? feelin gassy? do you need to burpie? 😉

"his last name is slim. but he's better known as jim."

in other words, i was fuqn with ya.

ironically, if i'm going to let anyone get away with using the B-word, it's a aries. go freakin figure? i think it's because i picture you in a diaper and all aries men remind me of stewie.

what the hell is a banoffee pie? i don't feel like using the google.

you know you're a damn baby! you look like you're 6. if you were gay you'd be a twink. i guarantee in your 30s you're going to look like you're in your 20s. it's freakish how well aries men age.

It's like banana pie on crack tubs, banana/toffee, banoffee. 🙂

ooooooooooooh, no wonder i dont know it. mushy bananas, banana pudding, banana flavored candy...i just can't do it 😛

the toffee sounds good though...
