I've heard that about Cap Mars.

Plus you are earth dominant anyway and IMO earth does that. Like a volcano that builds and builds and finally one day releases everything.

Perhaps is bc the ruler of your mars is Saturn and saturn squares Pluto and Pluto rules your 12th house. I think that sums it up .

I have Taurus Mars opp 3H Scorpio Mercury. Mars is also at the apex of one of my Yods & inconjunct Pluto. Lucky for me Mars is retro which causes me MOST of the time to turn inward which is part of the cause of my intermittent depression. Other times, I am the Incredible Hulk. What I have learned over my 40 years is voicing my irritation asap is imperative to staying healthy. I no longer can afford to hold in the anger until I literally see red, eviscerate the perpatrator verbally or knock them out. If I maintain my cool & discuss the matter at hand with the offender calmly, everyone wins.

Guilty as charged (earth mars)! I don't get angry, but when I do get out of the way because you will get the horns!

To be fair, I have to be seriously provoked to get there. I am talking verbal though, have never gotten physical.

Mars conjunct Uranus is described as having violent potential. The aspect in Capricorn where the energy is suppressed and allowed to well explains what you described pretty accurately.

That is true mars conjunct uranus has this effect where anger just builds up and then blows up unexpectedly!

So the fact that he has mars conjunct uranus combined with saturn ruling his mars and squaring pluto and pluto ruling his 12th would lead to someone who holds it in but eventually can just blow up bc of the mars conjunc uranus...

I would be mindful of transits..try to prepare ahead of time; working on learning how to better cope with this..

My husband has mars/uranus/DC conjunction and this conjunction is ruled by pluto which also rules his dc. In addition mars rules his 12th house and he just sets off every now and then leading to holes in the walls and damaged property that is often valuable; saturn is transiting his mars/uranus/dc and this has kept the outbursts in check it seems. I also think that saturn perhaps is making him work on better dealing with this energy.

I think bc saturns rules your mars something in you holds you back and helps you keep that anger in check but do find a way to express it....find a hobby were you can release this build up constructively!

Yup. For those of us that live our lives with anger it's hard to see that other people aren't to tolerant with anger or outbursts. The littlest things scare people and more people call cops on stupid things than you think. Don't give into your anger. It's an addictive release. Just walk away. Physically exert yourself.

And holy 2nd house!

Aqua suns tend to get pretty angry. Uranian chaos.

The ruler of your mars is Venus and Venus is at 22 degrees in taurus and conjuncts chiron in Taurus at 25 degrees and this falls in your 11th house, I see that your moon squares exact regulus and chiron conjuncts by one orb algol.

16, 17, 18, 19, 22, and 25 Degrees of Taurus are all degrees of violence.

I am looking at my husband's transits and his outbursts got bad really during transit Pluto opposite moon as his moon squares his sun and sesquisquares his mars/uranus/dc stellium....Pluto is now 6 orbs separating opposite his moon and since it started separating around 4 orbs things have been peaceful.

He still deals with irritability which was there from the beginning (mars conjunct uranus) but this darker side I saw it's becoming very clear it was the Pluto transit opposing his moon as his moon aspects his sun by one orb, sequisquares his mars exact and his Uranus by one orb.

Saturn,Uranus and Neptune sit on top of your Mars by conjunction.

Mars-Saturn controls emotional/impulsive responses and goes for the "Choose your battles wisely" and "Rather win the war and lose the battle" approach. So a lot of your impulsive actions will be contained.

Mars-Uranus conjunction suggests an erratic response or action taken without much consideration. This aspect tends to "overshadow" the Saturn aspect of "control" and "reasonable responses".

But the alpha dog or chief "Honcho" has got to be the Mars-Neptune conjunction.

Neptune tends to inhibit many of Mars' impulsive actions. So one tends to "imagine" doing something before doing it in reality or one may not have a quick response to a sudden threat but, in retrospect, start to kick themselves on how they "should" have responded.

Do you find it better to anticipate how you are going to respond to a situation than doing it spontaneously?

Do you find it difficult to act without being forewarned?

Neptune also has a tendency of creating fears of being "undone" or being "weak". So this could explain your fear of being overpowered?

Maybe this "overpowering" is not the reason itself, but the fear borne from it could be that you are "overpowered" whilst in the presence of others? Perhaps those that you would want future respect from?

This is the "undoing" that Neptune is about. The public "humiliation" and private shame.

Have you tried Self-defense,Martial arts,Wrestling or Judo classes?

i have mars square uranus and am also afraid of my anger. I am pretty easy going until i get mad and then all hell breaks loose. I like it though since i am so passive, when i do eventually get mad, it forces me to get off my butt and make changes.

Your Mars conj Uranus which is an aspect of rashness, sudden happenings and that could lead to accident proneness etc. So, you are side to move with caution as much as you can, my Friend.

With Neptune the answers are more spiritual than "attack, attack, attack".

The reason I recommended Martial arts, Judo and self defense is because they teach one how to "diffuse" a threatening situation and can build immense self-confidence.

Confidence raises the vibration to another level. A person who is confident is rarely confronted with issues of being threatened physically or fears "losing it".

Martial arts, and other forms of self-defense, are about the self(not the other) and teach the self about self-mastery and self-control.

There is something in your vibration that is sending out "vulnerable" signals. Through these defense tactics, you can raise the vibration to "self confidence". Neptune wants you to go to the spiritual place and raise it.

Neptune is not about earning "respect" and looking macho externally. Neptune is about working from the inside out.

When threatening situations do arise around you, and it will NOT happen when your vibration is raised,your approach to the situation will be a lot more calmer and controlled-as you will know your own strength.

Haven't you seen in movies, when the kick ass good guy stands up to the "baddies"? He always projects this energy of "I got this"- no matter his size vs the opponent.

Although that is more scripted,take that as what I mean by knowing your own strength. This is what I mean by being self-controlled.

Martial arts can greatly do this, boxing too. Do something that will make you feel empowered.

That was great input on mars-neptune...

___________________________________________

I want to point out that pluto will be entering your second house and in 2018 pluto will be in capricorn at 20 degrees and you have a huge stellium there including your mars conjunct uranus so even if you have mars conjunct neptune when that pluto hits the mars conjunct uranus it could be when you act out on that anger that saturn and neptune have helped keep from acting out..this transit will likely result in losing a lot of money if you are attached to your possessions and money as transits to pluto entering the second usually coincide with this.

I find that there is predisposition and the transits trigger behaviors that otherwise were kept under control; specially so with pluto transits.


However you have pluto in the 12th natally which is great news bc that means you are probably in touch with yourself and darker side so you have naturally already been digging your subconscious and dealing with issues and addressing them so when pluto enters your second and conjuncts all the planets in your stellium you will probably deal with it better than others and not have issues with anger that gets out of control; I would just be specially mindful after pluto starts separating from neptune and approaching and conjuncting your mars-uranus natal conjunction.

This is a great article:
http://wholeastrology.blogspot.com/2013/01/tips-for-surviving-pluto-transits.html


My heart goes out to anyone with personal planets and even transpersonal planets in the cardinal signs (Libra, Capricorn, Aries, and Cancer) and especially those who were born during the first week of their sign, (the 22nd -29th of a month). The bad news is you can't avoid squares, oppositions or conjunctions with transiting Pluto and transiting Uranus at this time. Uranus moves into Taurus in 2018, finally giving relief to people with planets in cardinal signs, but Pluto doesn't move into Aquarius until 2024. The good news is that both Uranus and Pluto bring much needed transformation to the planet and to individuals with these configurations.

The most challenging planetary aspects/transits are when Pluto squares, opposes or conjuncts the natal Sun, Moon, or Rising sign, in this case they would be placed in either Capricorn, Cancer, Aries or Libra. The Pluto transit last three years and when the orb is exact, a person can feel as if they have been plunged into hell, or that hell has broken loose in their lives. How Pluto's energy plays out has to do with the house it's transiting in and any aspects it has with both natal and other transiting planets. The sky is active and planets are constantly on the move. And even when you know the house or houses involved with the transit, it's still impossible to predict what sort of drama will play out because Pluto is ruled by Scorpio which deals with the hidden and those things kept far down in our subconscious. This planet is primal and impulsive.

A few years ago, astronomers and astrologers demoted Pluto from planet to asteroid. It's as if they didn't want to deal with the chaos and mess Pluto brings to the planet (earth) and I guess they thought they could just sweep Pluto under the carpet; pretend that it wasn't there. However, if you're going through a Pluto transit, you know that it's impossible to sweep Pluto, much less anything under a rug and pretend it isn't there. Cleanliness is not one of Pluto's greatest assets. Think of the analogy of a clogged sewer system and all the muck that comes up, (smells bad too) in order to fix the clog. Well, there's a lot of muck we buried in our subconscious, mostly during our childhood when we didn't have the wherewithal to handle those emotions at that time.

I think for women, we had to hide certain emotions, such as rage, especially with my generation and older generations that weren't seen as ladylike. We were expected to play the role of nice girl, and take care of other people's needs, while stuffing our own. Ever wonder why so many women have weight problems? We were told to look nice and play this role, be seen, but not heard, yeah, even with my generation (I was born in the 1960s). So much for women's liberation. Well, now Pluto is helping us to get in touch with our true feminine power which at this point resembles an outraged Kali. See, our parents should have just let us throw that tantrum at age two instead of letting the rage build and build into volcanic activity. With Pluto lurking around in the subconscious this rage now comes up for healing and clearing. Denying it's there won't help and in fact, we can no longer deny that it's there.

Men going through a Pluto transit also have to deal with stuffing their emotions, mainly grief and sometimes inner rage that is tearing them apart. Telling boys that they can't cry when they're hurt either emotionally or physically, is asking for trouble down the road. If a man doesn't learn how to express all of his emotions, then he represses too many of them. This could lead to escapism, violent behavior (to hide his vulnerability), or cold detachment (such as the bachelor who uses women, but feels nothing for them). Remember, Pluto and Scorpio has a tendency or a weakness of appearing icy cold. And ice kings didn't start out as cold and unfeeling reptilians.

So here comes Pluto to unblock, unlock, release, transform and transmute patterns, beliefs, emotions, and all that crap we cling to. We need to do this housecleaning anyway, but Pluto transits are painful and we do experience great loss and I liken a Pluto transit to a long and drawn out initiation. Think of the bat totems and initiations of Meso-America/Latin America where the initiates are taken into a dark cave filled with bats. Or think about the totem animals of Panther/Jaguar or Vulture, which is about purging everything that never worked and no longer worked. Pluto knocks out the guard rails or any defenses we have secured into place. We are left standing naked feeling vulnerable and exposed. We find ourselves stripped of everything we thought we needed to survive. Think of all those families who lost their homes and lived in cars, if they had a car to live in. Think of all the people who recently divorced. Think of people who have lost their health and their lives under Pluto transits. And I'm not saying this to frighten anyone. Courage is needed now.

Practicing gentleness with our selves and self-love are crucial ingredients to reaching the other side of a Pluto transit. Eating healthy, going with the flow and letting go of anything that comes up now that needs release. Finding a life coach or therapist to work with (who understands astrology) can relieve the tension and fear that surface. Take flower essences such as the Bach Flower Remedies (Rescue Remedy) comes to mind. Take a yoga, meditation or Tai Chi class. Change your diet and eliminate all unhealthy foods, give up alcohol, sugar and caffeine which will just agitate you now. If you have an addiction, de-tox and get professional help. Get a medical check up especially with the parts of the body ruled by Scorpio (sexual organs, colon). Don't go through these transits alone. It's crucial that you find support, especially when you experience losses.

While I support positive thinking and feeling joy, when a person is experiencing a challenging Pluto transit (square, opposition, conjunction), it's time to clean house (the subconscious). Those issues you buried deep inside come up now for you to transmute and release. But don't make the mistake of holding on to these old hurts and go over them like a groove in a record. When the issues come up, deal with them, and be done with them. Don't re-dramatize your situation (Scorpio loves drama), but don't deny your issues or your shadows now. The key word is transmute energy. And by transmuting energy, you actually find your authentic self. You reclaim your power and like Persephone you rise back up the earth as a changed magical being. And if you're Capricorn, it will be another 240 years before Pluto transits in Capricorn again.
