The woman I know with this sign is very analytical of history and philosophy. This is probably her Martian energy being channeled into what her Sag sun pulls her into. If she were an Aries sun then she might instead be the athlete who trained hard and won competitions by means fair and foul (as just an example), or as an Aries investigator she could be unpredictable in what she looked at, but once her attention was caught she'd be relentless, and may not restrict herself to legal means of learning what she wanted (this being her Martian energy directed by her sun).

Hmmm, speaking of which, I remember when someone raised a stink about the lifestyle choices of the Scorp Mars I know that threatened the integrity of her family (she has Cancer moon). She already had a plan in place that shut that down fast. Her Cancer moon, I believe, motivated her, but it was her Scorpio Mars that drove her to get her pieces in place so that when what she feared started to happen she shut that down fast, an instant check and mate.

Hmm..
Mine is in the 8th, so it's a double influence. But it's sort of a debilitated mars. Very closely squared by Saturn. So I'm not always functioning at "full capacity".

I think things that happen to us are more a function of house placements. How we react is (partly) our mars.

Okay. I'll just list the themes as they occur to me. No order in particular. And we can discuss.. Okay?

Theme #1: Only being fully *present* and alive in extreme situations. In all ordinary, normal situations I tend to slack off.

I can confirm this as I have mars in 4th house, although I am a dude xD

That explains a lot.

Mars in Scorpio conjunct Ascendant exact from 12th house.

I believe I read that as well but what is missing is the 3rd house! I can't find the link but Mars in Scorpio in the 3rd house also equals to a high sex drive.

Or it could be that you count your 12th house as your 1st house and your mars could be in 4th house after all

Does this happen with you too ?

This is me to a tea. Often times I only feel really alive while doing intense things, which is probably why I get such a kick out of riding roller-coasters that go 80 mph

Other times I just feel very calm and complacent. People tend to think I can be quite extreme when I'm just feeling normal. It's quite strange. Mars opposite Saturn in Aries.

I mean, house placement doesn't change this particular "feature".

So what about a person who has Mars/Pluto aspect?

posted January 19, 2017 10:36 AM            

My Mars conjuncts Pluto. But it also squares Saturn and Moon, and sits close to my DSC and NN, so it's heavily projected and gets triggered mainly through 6H matters (work/colleagues/health, etc) and close partnerships.

Allll that being said...
I don't have a high sex drive. Flash news. It is possible while having a Scorpio Mars and a Mars/Pluto aspect *gasp*

I am perfectly fine living a sexless life.
However if I do have a partner I very much want them to be sexual, because my sexual side "awakens" when I'm involved with someone intimately (I blame the DSC influence).

I was most sexual when tMars was conjunct my own Mars (Mars return). Had quite a few casual affairs and was honestly quite baffled at how sexual I felt compared to my usual ways.

I think that is true as well - it's the whole Scorp sinner/Sunday-school teacher mojo. Can be perfectly celibate for a while (fixed) but that doesn't mean the drive isn't there underneath.

Both Aries and Scorpio are about sex, but Aries is more about the physical act of sex whereas Scorpio is about the intimacy that comes with sex. Of course, because of the fact that it's associated with sex, people like to strip this term down and define Scorpio as being a very sexual sign, when in fact many Scorpios I know are not highly sexual. A Scorpio stellium friend of mine even claimed to be asexual with her Mars in Leo on the 11th house cusp.

This can be why Scorpio is so concerned about who they are going to have sex with. Mars in Scorpio can be a highly sexual placement since Mars is strong in Scorpio, but having Mars in Scorpio alone does not make someone super sexual. Scorpio is not a superficial sign, so a Scorpio Mars is most likely to not have sex with someone just because they are physically attractive; that would be a bonus. They want to have sex with someone who they can physically trust and release their inner soul into, something as intense as sex can be is what a Scorpio Mars craves. Therefore, if it's superficial, they are probably going to be disgusted.

Those are my thoughts on it.

This is perhaps why Mars is exalted in Capricorn, due to the fact that Capricorn Mars is so good at controlling their drive and that they don't need an emotional motivator to be able to put their drive to use. They have total control over their drive and motivation, and they can use it to their will. However, because of that, I think Scorpio Mars can be a stronger (notice I said stronger, not more efficient) Mars than Capricorn Mars due to the fact that if they are emotionally motivated in something, they become extremely powerful in that regard. Mars in Capricorn doesn't have that ability due to the fact that they don't let emotions get in the way of such. Therefore, they may be able to achieve a lot more, but I wouldn't say they would be able to excel at something as strongly as a Scorpio Mars would.

This explains why I tend to struggle with things that I am not as emotionally attached to vs things that I am passionate about. It also explains my disinterest in school and why it is such a bother for me (that may just be an Aquarian thing). Aries Mars would be the same way, but it would based on passion more so than on an emotionally-bound drive. They also need to be able to recognize that they are making progress, otherwise they will give up since nothing is turning up right away. They are impatient like that :P

Aries mars & Nike share a motto. They don't complicate it with emotional hang-ups or anything. They won't be hindered by small-talk or lack of a plan, or any roundabout route when a straight one would do much better. My Aries mars & earth mars friends often don't really get the "don't-feel-like-doing-it" syndrome. Aries mars is out the door before you can say jackrabbit. There's a certain beauty in keeping things simple - and it's the right thing to do, on some level. #JustDoIt.
