Effects of Mars in Scorpio

topic posted Thu, February 22, 2007 - 9:21 AM by  Don't touch ...
What kind of effect does having Mars in Scorpio have on your life?
I'm relatively new, so I don't know if this is a stupid question, but this intrigues me. Can this alignment weigh heavily on the way you react to things, view yourself, or anything else? Is it a positive or negative thing (I'm supposing a little of both)?
I read what I can from the resources I have, but I'm more interested in what you guys have to say on it.

    Mars is the planet of war and aggression, Zodiacally speaking. Scorpio is a sign associated with intense and somewhat dark desires and motivations. When you put the two together- BLAMM-O. Watch out! Most, if not all of the people here are, from my perspective, aware of their outsized focus on all things sexual. Sometimes this can involve fantasies which involve violence. I think we come here to talk about it frankly. I'd say we're trying to get down to the bottom of what's positive and negative about this planetary positioning.

    that's a sort of lightweight intro to what goes down here. I see there's been little posting here recently. UH OH. What y'all out there getting into?

      Scorpionic energy is not necessarily dark (though it can be) but perhaps "occult" is a more appropriate adjective:
      hidden desires and motivations, inpenatrable gaze, the shapeshifter of the zodiac...but always the intensity, and often in the sexual realm. But there too, it need not be a dark experience. (It could even refer to tantric bliss!) While we are all familiar with the Scorpion as representing Scorpio, note that the Eagle is considered to be the higher form of Scorpionic energy symbolized. The eagle, seldom seen, has the overview of the situation and is thus, keenly aware, calculating his timing. Hidden agendas or protection of what we value is intensified. We feel the energy more intensely when the aspect of Mars in Scorpio hits our charts...

        Your Mars is in Scorpio emphasizing your attunement to deep primal forces in nature, and your need to stay connected with the forces of life in a wild, raw, uncivilized state. You express the energies of both birth and death, creativity and destructiveness, and understand the need for both. You have tremendous physical presence, vitality, and passion to use for good or ill intents. Power will always be an issue in your life - you must learn to acknowledge your power and the ramifications of using it. The power of nature is a source of your own strength and healing. Intensity of experience is more important than permanence (www.highwizardhold.com/sample...ic.htm)

          With Mars in Scorpio, your psychological drive towards assertive action
          based on a conscious appreciation of your emotional attitudes to people and
          situations is expressed with strength and persistence. You have a keen
          awareness of the emotional implications of any situation, and a retentive
          memory for your past feeling states. You have a keen awareness of your
          emotional desires, and are able to satisfy them most of the time, since
          your understanding of the way people tick emotionally is accurate, and
          you can take advantage of your sensitivity to atmosphere, saying and doing
          the right things at the right time to create the right effect. You may
          appear mysterious or secretive to others who are not on your wavelength,
          for you do not always express yourself openly. However you are persistent
          and others will realise that you are a force to be reckoned with. As you
          mature you will probably show more of yourself to the world, but you are
          really interested in finding out what makes you tick, though you will
          certainly become thoroughly involved with others in finding this out.

    Mars in scorpio makes me rather emotionally attatched to anyone I become involved with romantically. This is tempered by my sun in Aquarius/ Capricorn Ascendant but I still feel the effects of it internally. My partners almost never can tell and in fact, they usually see me as emotionally detatched!

    You guys are "all right".
    Scorpio is the sign specifically about transformations,
    and the only sign to hint at the 'Three Worlds'.
    So... how 'lofty' can you be?
    Yes, very intense this Mars in Scorp. Mars' exalted sign!!!

    Not only do I have Mars in Scorpio, but it is opposition my Taurus Sun and retrograde which means it was close to the earth at the time of my birth. One thing I've noticed is that when Mars is "around", so to speak, I can be very impatient, testy, and sarcastic. I hate that in myself!

    I'd like to hear from those who have Mars retrograde. Are we really so different from those with Mars direct, and how?

      I also have Sun in Taurus opp Mars in Scorp retro. The aspect itself has a zero degree orb and is the tighest aspect in my chart. I can feel the retro on such a deep level because I know I have this reservoir of intense energy that I don't know how to express properly. My chart ruler is Mercury because my ascendant is in Virgo conjunct my moon in Virgo and my North Node is in Gemini along with my Midheaven. My Mars is in the 3rd house of gemini and Mercury in Aries in the 8th. There's a lot of intense energy when it comes to Mercurial matters and when the energy comes unders grasp, my Mars in Scoripo will definintely have a larger role in my life. Mercury is also the only planet to have an aspect with my Pluto in Scorpio which is WONDERFUL because I dont' think I could handle anymore Pluto. I'm a Taurus for crying out loud!

        I wonder if any other Mars in Scorpio fine folks get this. When I'm buying groceries or coming face to face with someone for the first time, a lot of the times they stare at me like they don't know what to do. And they seem almost surprised if I open my mouth and speak ENGLISH! Does this happen to any of you? There's nothing more funny though to surprise the crap out of someone by just speaking! LOL! I wonder if this has to do with M in S energy.

          yes! yes! yes!

          I sometimes wondered if it had to do with my voice, but I've heard my voice in messages before and it doesn't sound unusual... I definitely believe it has to do with the intense Scorpio energy. I also have a Scorpio MC conjunct Pluto so I bet that adds to it!
