I'll help you look into it if I can.

Thanks!

(did you notice how being more detailed for a hairbrain like me helps?)

When Mars’ reactivates it’s own place in the natal chart, especially by conjunction, all of the natal potential of the planet is stimulated. A certain amount of energy will arise out of such a contact due to the awakening of the natural competitive urges. Especially in this instance the natal Mars should be examined for potential.

Restraint and caution should be applied in regard to affairs ruled by Mars in the natal chart, but with assisting aspects, great accomplishments can be yours. With hard aspects to a natal Mars that is afflicted, matters could get out of hand and you could turn out to be your own worst enemy unless you can curb rebellious tendencies and maintain control.

Open confrontations are common with this position and with many adverse aspects such conflicts might become physical, resulting in an accident. Since Mars reflects those of a masculine nature, conflicts with these types are the norm. This contact occasionally corresponds with an illness if other indicators concur.

With Mars transiting the tenth, you are intent on pushing forward in your career and professional status. The desires and ambitions along these lines are unusually pressing. Being another of the angular houses, events taking place now will have a great bearing on your future and will be long reaching in their effects. You will take a great amount of initiative to further your personal career goals and to make important strides in your overall life direction.

It is a time when great progress can be made and personal recognition achieved. You could be put in a position of authority and command over others. Relationships with authorities are likely to be touchy in afflicted charts, and with many adverse aspects there could be reversals affecting one’s public image. This is more common if Mars is retrograde while forming stressful aspects in the tenth.

Impatience in pursuing your goals or a lack of control could cause you to step on toes of those higher up or leave them feeling threatened.

Hey Fish -
I take all this to mean that it's all a good placement in order to make the most of a given situation. Just don't go overboard. What do you think?
