.Women with Mars rising can have a somewhat hard or unprepossessing appearanceif there is no aspect from the Moon, Venus, or Jupiter to soften it.If there is, Marsadds fire and intensity, and gives a cmopelling force to their appearance thatcommands attention.Women with Mars rising have a tough row to hoe, but if theyare honest with themselves they know that they wouldn't have it any other way.Mars in this location adds great physicality to the nature.It adds fight to the nature,the will to never say die.Unless its fire is greatly diminished by sign or aspect, therewill probably be at least one knock-down-drag-out physical fight at some time, usuallyin youth.It's an especially good position for soldiers, athletes, and dancers, but it alsois good for any career as it gives great stamina, staying power, and courage.These people seek thrills and challenges.They may either die young from takingrisks, or live long and hearty lives.There is great gusto here, a lust for life.They areextremely competitive, and need regular physical competition so their competitivenature won't cause problems within their friendships and love relationships.They are not inclined to be deep thinkers unless other aspects show it.Even if thereare thought aspects, these people will rely mainly on instinct and inspiration.Actionis a passion for them.They love to be in motion.They have big appetites, and can be lustful, willful, and gluttonous, unless otheraspects hold them back.They tend to get into positions of authority through theirenergetic efforts, and also because they don't like taking orders themselves.If theydo acquire authority, they tend to be somewhat insensitive toward those beneaththem, and to use power to satisfy personal desires.Many kings and emperors haveMars rising or conjunct the Sun; not only those who win their own glory, but alsothose who inherit it and go on to use it effectively.With good aspects, they become like smooth-running machines in middle life, oncepast their early lustful rebellious years.By middle life, they tend to become serious,dedicated, and able to command respect.They are inclined to be accident-prone, depending on the aspects to Mars, and mustwatch out that they don't go too fast and lose control.They often have a scar on theface or head, or on that part of the body ruled by the sign Mars is in.Unless aspectsare really bad, they lose their tendency towards accidents in middle life.With goodaspects, they are agile and deft with their hands, bodies, and minds from youth untildeath.If there are oppositions or inconjuncts to Mars, and no trine or sextile torelieve them, there will be great stress, an unresolved physical tension, a rigidity, aninability to move or act, that may end in illness or accident.They are usually slender in youth from activity.If Mars is in a Water or Earth sign,they may gain weight in later years from overindulgence in food and drink, thoughsome stay trim throughout life due to self-control.If Mars is square Mercury, they are witty, but may overwork themselves.A risingMars square the Sun tends to overwork to the point where there may be abreakdown.(Bill Herbst)Self-expression: With Mars in the 1st, there is an urgency to the spontaneousexpression of personality.You have a cutting edge, a sharp thrust to the radiance ofself; and this thrust is natural rather than intentional.Desire is paramount, evenwhen it is not fully conscious.You 'come on' strong, and your personality has avoracious feel, a natural hunger.The pitfall involves confronting life too combatively,while the challenge is to act as spontaneously and directly as you can.Natural persona: The natural face you show the world is pointed, focused on the nextcrisis just around the corner.You tend to be assertive, razor-sharp, and sometimesdownright pushy, although you rarely see it that way.You lead with the cutting edgeof personal desire.Your name-tag, almost more challange than statement, says simply 'Hot'.Self-awareness: 'Maleness' is the key to dawning self-awareness [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
