I've read somewhere that, apart from the Ascendant and the Sun placement, it is planet Mars that speaks about your "body": physical traits, especially bodily traits, both in men and women.

What do you think about this theory?

Do you look like your Mars?

Mars can manifest itself in the way you handle your body, for example - making a lot of gestures while talking vs sitting still. I don't think I look Taurean. But I can act Taurean.

I have no idea what Mars in Cancer would entail in this way, that I look like a crab?

So you say, Cappy, it would affect movement and posture. I will think about what this means for each sign.

Something like... a Taurus Mars will move in a more "Venusian" way: slow, sensuous, deliberate. A Cancer Mars, again, slow, soft touch, feminine gestures.

What about the body type? Like sturdier, heavy, well-built for Taurus, less muscular, soft, curvacious for a Cancer Mars?

I'm heavy too... The BMI charts proves that I'm too short......

I've never heard of Mars appearance only Sun & Asc. Well, and I keep reading Jupiter in 1st makes me, um, too short of the BMI thing.

What to the Mars signs look like?

I like the way you put this.

Well, lets put the theory to the test. According to Astrotheme, the following celebrities have mars in Taurus:

Madonna
Michael Jackson
Janet Jackson
Lucy Lawless
Henry Cavill
Ellen Paige
50 Cent
Sade
Mariah Carey
James Blunt
Leona Lewis
Vince Vaughn
Ashley Judd
Helena Bonham Carter
Chuck Norris

There are many others but are there clear similarities in the ones listed that anyone can decipher?

If we are to go by "gestureS" and "expressions" barring Asc/Moon position, would you say that the above celebrities expressed themselves in a very "Taurian" way?

If this is too confusing, try the celebrities with Mars in Gemini like;

Adrianna Lima
Yasmine Bleeth
Meryl Streep
Eva Mendes
Jennifer Garner
our very own Linda Goodman
Mike Tyson
Keith Richards
Julio Iglesias
Hugh Grant
Naomi Campbell
Carmen Electra
Viggo Mortensen
Sean Penn
Courtney love
Antonio Banderas
Victoria Beckham

See if you can see a common thread with the celebrities listed(source is Astrotheme).

I've read that it can affect the appearance of the body ruled by the sign.

I have Mars in Capricorn in 6th, and I have very toned, muscular legs but my skin is terrible, and always has been. So...I suppose it affects our physical appearance, to a degree.

I have read online that your mars acts as a secondary ascendant and I agree.

I have taurus mars and I can definitely see physical taurean attributes. I have a natural male venusian musculature(I workout) wavy hair, wide nostrils, widespread eyes, and small ears lol.

2 of my sisters have scorpio and sagittarius mars'.

The scorpio mars has aries sun and gemini moon with leo ascendant. Her steady eyes are pure scorpio, big, round, very dark. Scorpio women have very distinctive voices, very mousy or husky. She has the cute scorpio mousy voice. Her hair is jet black, her mannerisms, demeanor, private nature are pure scorpio.

The other sister is a capricorn sun, scorpio moon, sagitarrius mars, leo ascendant. She has naturally shapely legs, the sag high forhead, a horse like face and mane, and on first impression one would swear she is a sag.

Hm...Maybe my neck would qualify as Taurean. It's not too long and it looks quite thick. I also have a rather pleasant voice.

Cute! :P According to the BMI chart, I'm 3 inches too short. If I were three inches taller I'd be "normal". :P


So, instead of derailing this thread... I'm good at that. anyone have a list of what mars signs are supposed to look like?

If this theory is correct, I am thinking:

Mars in Aries: athletic body, fast, brusque movements, aggressive, determined walk, physical strength, turns red when angry, angular movements, angular eyebrows, some “masculine ” features even in women (like square jaw, prominent muscles etc.). Maybe red hair even?? A voice that stands out?

Mars in Taurus: curves, sturdy, well-built body, thick or strong neck, curly hair, “Taurean” features and appearance, slow, deliberate, sensuous, sinuous movements and walk, very strong when provoked, but generally slower reflexes, tendency to gain weight, soft, deep or sensuous voice.

Mars in Gemini: Mercurial, fast, youthful looks and movements, fast walk, youthful appearance, talks with the hands, dexterity, good mimics of the face, slim, teenage-like, talks fast, more ethereal, youthful voice.

Mars in Cancer: curvaceous, lack of muscles, white soft skin, nice breasts or nice pectorals, round and fluffy even if not fat, round face, a zig-zag walk Celestica described, maybe?? , soft touch, blushing easily, sensitive skin, soft, whisper-like, sweet or shy voice.

Mars in Leo: the mane, tall or proud looking, straight, long back, “arrogant”, big nose, tendency to gain weight, large, regal hand gestures, deep or “feline” voice (especially in women), sinuous feline walk, with large steps.

Mars in Virgo: beautiful, virgin like, youthful and mercurial appearance. I know a few men with Mars in Virgo, it gives the typical Virgo eyes, very bright and somehow gentle, innocent. Slim, intellectual body types. Mercurial walk (fast and somehow jumpy). A sensitive tummy. Dexterity of hands, talk with their hands. However, being an Earth Mars, a more sensual look than Gemini, something earthy. Feminine features even in men.

Mars in Libra: gracious, ethereal, slim and sinuous in movements and appearance. Maybe tendency for long, wavy hair. Generally wavy movements. Elegant voice, hands, movements and walk. A general look of elegance. Seductive voice. Taller than usual or might appear taller than in reality, an impression of height. Good dancers.

Mars in Scorpio: “dark”, Plutonian eyes and features, darker skin or hair or a “dark” impression even if blonde. Interesting remarks about the voice by Rick Grayson. Strange, “witchy” or bedroom like voice (this could go for Taurus too). Various body types, I think, but could walk into a room without being heard, the ability to walk silently. Seductive appearance in either body or face, definitely Scorpionic eyes or gaze.

Mars in Sagittarius: shorter legs, longer upper torso (Centaurus), athletic or strong body even if overweight ( a tendency for Jupiterian Sagittarius), loud laugh, broad smile, something “big” in their appearance: like nose, hands, feet, forehead etc. Could have a very strong voice. A faster and stronger than normal walk (the horse). Very outdoor-ish in appearance.

Mars in Capricorn: typical Saturnian features, sturdy, maybe smaller/petite women, high and broad cheekbones, serious look, no gesticulation, steady, intimate voice, earthy appearance, goat like features and definitely the mountain goat walk (fast, tip-toed). Sensitive skin.

Mars in Aquarius: something unusual in face or body, at least one striking feature (colored eyes, unusual nose, forehead, hands etc.), ethereal, scattered, abrupt walk or movements, could be of any body type. Maybe very tall?

Mars in Pisces: good dancers, dreamy eyes, beautiful feet and legs, watery movements and walk, soft voice with feminine inflexions even in men, luminous skin.

What do you think? Feel free to correct me or add your ideas.
Does it fit with your Mars?

LOL I have mars in aries and people tell me I walk gracefully LOL. and my body is not athletic but it is healthy and powerful.

I think mars is at home so it gives just more positive qualities overall.

I have good reflexes, hand eye coordination, and stamina.

I have to say I know a scorpio that does not look or act the way that article describes at all.
Though is pretty strong and can take a punch or two.

It's kinda funny the way they take the description of Mars in Sagittarius literally like we all resemble horses. That's far from the case.
Everyone I know with it is a bit rugged but horselike? Not really. It does indicate willfulness and horses can be willful. They can also be quite tame and beasts of burden. I prefer the image of the wild Mustang.

I don't mars has much to do with the way we carry ourselves that's the asc and sun but more our passions, strength and sexuality..

A mars in cancer with sag asc is not going to behave like a cancer. But may have issues standing up for themselves and another is passive aggressiveness.

I know a Libra and pisces asc with mars in scorpio and does not outwardly act like a scorpio until they are horned up or agressive than you can see that martian energy coming out.
maybe if mars conjuncts asc or the angles.

I think the reason i don't outwardly seem agressive is because Venus conjuncts asc exact so the way I carry myself is full of grace and I have no desire to look athletic because that would take away from my delicate and beautiful body

Thanks for the examples, Aries23Degrees.

From your list, I find the Taurus Mars more consistent with the Taurus traits.

Gemini Mars seems to have various physical features, IMO, but I guess it is consistent with the changeable, mutable characteristics of Geminis.

Very true. I have Mars in Aquarius with Uranus in the 1st house. I have insanely long legs that are disproportionate to my body lol. I'm about 5'8 and my legs are over 4 ft long. Strange body to say the least. I get told that I have a tendency to 'appear' from nowhere... Move in sudden, jerk like motions, and have striking cheekbones/eyes/eyebrows. Also strangely, people always guess that I'm taller than I am. Like when I tell my height they expect me to say 5'10 or more. I have very erect posture which is probably why people are always shocked to find I'm only 5'8. Which should be obvious, In my opinion, lol.

Well Mars is the planet of the Martian, how we connect to Mars from Earth is the literal way in which are Martians. (Physical, red blooded beings), our physical stature, appearance, strength, agility etc

The Red planet is a high percentage of our physical build, height, passion, desire etc, all that symbolizes Mars.

Mars is the way in which your a solider, and everything the soldier undertakes eg the muscular skeleton

My Mars was in Leo with Regulus exact, ninth house.
