The signification of Mars in Vedic Astrology

With fire as its element, Mars in Vedic astrology is a masculine planet signifying strength and supremacy.

The positive influence of this fiery planet is associated with courage, enthusiasm, activity, youth, vitality, dynamism, confidence, initiation, innovation, and originality.

Its negative influence connotes arrogance, ego, anger, stubbornness, selfish temperament, and recklessness.

Mars in horoscope can be both positive and malefic depending upon its placement. It can help overcome challenges, topple competition, and win over enemies. On the other hand, its energy can be self-destructive too causing harm, injury, wounds, accidents, and excessive sexual urge to the native.

A well-placed Mars in horoscope can be very positive as it makes the person a saintly fighter. Such a person usually has high values and is a justice-loving soul backed by ambition and fearlessness. They have good control over their aggressive instincts and use them wisely.

People having Mars in Ascendant are usually attractive and look younger than their age. Such a person usually has effective administration and leadership skills.

On the other hand, an afflicted Mars can make the person timid and fearful and if Mars is too strong in the chart, it can make the person violent and prone to self-destructive aggression.

Afflicted Mars can also make the person ambitionless. Such a person may struggle to focus their energies in the right direction.

They may also suffer from loss of vitality & stamina, muscular weakness, inflammation, headache, high fever, etc.

Overall, Martians are short-tempered, love to offer their opinion and win arguments, are quite intellectual and technically sound.

In Vedic astrology, Mars placement is crucial in horoscope matching as it causes Mangal Dosha.
