Do activities related to your Mars fill up a big part of your schedule?

Do you prioritize Mars activities above others, even activities that you may rationally consider more important to you...but then you feel compelled to take action, according to your Mars sign, first?

This is all true for me. It explains why I spend time here...11H Gemini Mars, out of bounds. Gotta be where the party is.

I'm here even at the expense of comfort for my 8H moon (which squares Mars and prefers silence) and 5H Neptune (opposing Mars, and representing my broader creative mindset....as in, I can do more than post comments about astrology!)

Wondering if this is the case for others?

Mars conj Asc. I NEED to exercise and if you stand in my way I WILL remove you from my path; verbally or physically. Orb 1 degree.

Mars sextile Uranus. I NEED to feel alive by the help of my lightbulb thinking and spontaneous endeavours. If you try to control my mind I will despise you. Orb 0.18 degrees.

Those are my two freedom outlets. Don't mess with them..and they take up all hours of the day bar when I am sleeping. I am very selfish with these things.

My Mars is in Gemini also, and yes, time management is always a struggle.

Mine is in H8, exactly conjunct my Chiron(0'07' orb) and I can get really obsessive about managing my time. I make schedules and charts all the time, half out of neccessity, half because I honestly have fun making complicated charts. (Mars in Gemini might do that to you)

I have huge problems finishing things I start, and I am interested in SO. MANY. THINGS. All the things. So making some sort of plan is a must.

My Mars in Taurus just wants fed and maybe a backrub, then it gets out of the way for Mercury and the gang (or Venus and her merry Rx crowd) to do their things.

@charlie

Your Mars is a little scary! What sign is it in?

@libran_dream:

Is this your second post in three years? I feel so honored that you came back just to comment on my thread!

Sometimes I make a lot of lists, too! But it gets so complicated, having a special little organizer for this, and another one for that. I'm on vacation from order right now.

@Gemini Blues:

You crack me up

@Faith
I've signed up a few years ago and forgot all about it. I've recently returned to my love of Astrology and only just remembered today I actually have an account open here...
Such a Gemini Mars thing to do, don't you think?

I know all about the list struggle... They get so complicated, folders, papers everywhere, and I try to sych them across different media and interests and whoa. Just managing my time ends up as a part-time job.
It frustrates me but also keeps my attention on a constant basis. That's what Mars basically does, right?

You *remembered* your screen name and password from three years ago? If I could do that kinda thing, I wouldn't need all these lists!

Yes I was the same about lists, getting all neurotic about how to synch them...I had post-it notes the size of small legal pads that I would just incubate in several different folders dedicated to several different types of activities. So I didn't contaminate my work journal with shopping reminders or what have you.

Man I was weird! But that was months ago. I am like so over it now.

Mars conjunct asc and mercury in 1st 0.22 degree orb with asc and 1 degree with mercury. all in taurus.

The hobby that i devote most time to is exercising, spesificaly strongman and powerlifting. I train almost everyday and i'm stronger that people twice my size.

It's also opposite pluto which coupled with all my taurus planets makes me really obsessive about things, people, ideas etc.

Hahaa i went from a little skinny twig to an aesthetic look and it feels great it was my mars/pluto that had me obsessed with transforming my body hmm my temperament kind of changes lmao either im in a social goofy aqua mood or other times a quiet keep to myself scorp i also dont get angered easily but when i do i get crazy lol iv only really lost my temper 100% once and that was only after finding out some really hurtful betraying things done to me and i was raging like a crazy person screaming and flipping things smh my boys tried to hold me down that didnt work lmao i have mars and moon/pluto so i tend to bottle anger up and when it finally does come out i seriously feel like an animal lol but i have learned to channel that energy into my workouts/sex

Why my username was neatly stored in the appropriate folder, ofcourse. My memory is not super great, which is why I have hundreds of folders lol.

Your last paragraph is so very intimately familiar to me. Man we Gemini Mars people are weird.

I love weightlifting too. It's actually the first form of regulated exercise EVER that I grew to love. I just HATE treadmills.
I have a Taurus Sun and Aries Venus which I'm guessing is what causes that, however other influences make my progress super slow.
What's your routine? Share your secrets to muscle-building pls.

Mars in Taurus. I love food. And I always have some sort of good tasting drink with me. I also spend a good chunk of my day petting dogs.

I have Mars in Libra. I spend a lot of my day arguing or "setting people straight" on any number of topics (veganism / animal rights, feminism / human rights / civil rights, climate change issues, various conspiracy theories, etc...).

I hate prejudice and close-mindedness. HATE IT! It leads to injustice which really gets me infuriated.

My time management sucks because my passion distracts me from doing my work assignments. It's hard to turn that passion off to "clock in" because I feel like a hypocrite when I am not focused on what's most important to me.

Haha sorry for side-tracking your thread faith :P

i don't really have a set in stone routine but i tend to train legs and core on one day, then i will do back and biceps another and chest, triceps and shoulders on another day. then i start over on legs again.

But most importantly is to focus on always trying to improve something every workout session; weather it be weight or number of reps, always try to get a new "record" one way or another. that way your muscles has to keep growing to adapt to your challanges.

You also has to eat ALLOT generally, and be consistent, that way you will always keep improving.


Btw i'm laughting reading you guy'ses gemini stories as it resonantes strongly with me aswell XD (gemini sun) lol "i was so weird but that was months ago"
