I googled this topic and most articles showed just a lack of good judgement and doing huge disfavor to astrology. Here two examples:

"Mars retrograde in a persons birth chart causes the person to be very frigid or to go to the extremes. Some have sex aversions."

Oh no, don't say that, that wrong! How can you be frigid and go to extremes?

"Natal retrograde Mars are prone to be uncoordinated mentally and physically and experience sexual difficulties."

Oh no, how about emotionally?


This is how I would consider the natal retrograde Mars by the sign:

Aries: You need to tell him when to stop and educate him about sexuality. It will take time for him to listen to you.

Taurus: (in detriment) Sexual energy potentially abundant, but needs cultivation for consistency. Needs to be in the mood anyhow.

Gemini: Here fear is possible, so look for the emotional and self-value issues to improve the physical expression of love.

Cancer: (in fall) Here a physical expression of love resonates deeply, so as much as you can be responsive to him, the better his self-esteem.

Leo: No fear, but understading.

Virgo: Here we can possibly have a case of over-thinking. Mental soothing.

Libra in detriment) Here we can have fear but it will find it's compensation, maybe in something creative and flashy. Feel free to experiment.

Scorpio: No fear. Period. The only issues can be to the extent that the person is hooked on sex.

Sagittarius: Little spacier than when not retrograde, but still no fear.

Capricorn exalted) Essentially no difference. The earthiness and stamina prevail.

Aquarius: Again, the retrograde will not diminish the sexuality, it will prolong the pleasure.

Pisces: A person with retrograde Mars in Pisces will be very responsive to your sexual needs. The worst thing you can do is not to share how you feel.


Hope this makes some sense, and I would love to read your experiences.

They all seem passive, in my experience.

Dunno about their sexuality thou.

I think that's a stretch, to say retrograde Mars translates to frigidity.

But come to think of it, sex is actually not something I talk about a lot, so maybe that's my Gemini Mars R. Not talking about it.

Thanks Doux Rêve for your comment. In my experience it can create over-eagerness (to compensate?), and the quote from Mark Zuckerberg (mars retro in Scorpio) sums it kind of up: "Move fast and break things. Unless you are breaking stuff, you are not moving fast enough."

Faith, do you also not think about it, or you just don't talk about

Are we talking specifically about men or women?

Mars in Libra AND Retrograde natally and I'm faaaar from being frigid lol

Men like to try and play little games with me to try and control my sex drive by punishing me (in a playful way) for being as highly sexual as I am. But I guess it also depends on what house Mars is resting in. Mine is in the 2nd house.

I don't talk about whether or not I'm thinking about it.

But I'm not completely mute on the subject, I just approach it indirectly...occasionally I've mentioned that my husband is sexy, or that I find certain things attractive, or that the sun transiting my Eros had a pronounced effect...

9H retro Taurus Mars. I enjoy sex more in the context of monogamy. I am far from passive or inhibited. In fact, I am pretty assertive in this area. That could be Mercury & Eros in Scorpio opposite Mars. Also, I have 0 degree Venus in Sagittarius. I do like big strong intelligent men. ;-P
