Main problem:
I can't understand any aspects with Mars and I can't figure out how the planet manifests individually.

Information:
Mars seems to be extremely passive in my chart, because I haven't noticed any themes of Mars in Aries behavior in any area of my life.

Depending on house system, my Mars could be in 4th house, 5th house, or 6th house, but I use the house system that places Mars in 6th. However, I have also looked for themes of Mars in 4th and 5th and I don't see any. I don't see any themes of Mars in 6th either. I just don't feel anything Mars-related in my life.

Mars is where you tend to put your drive into, what you actively pursue, and how to act on the area. Mars in 5th is driven towards romance, children, hobbies, or self-realisation. Mars in 6th is driven to service, daily tasks, details, or health issues. Mars in 7th is driven towards intimate relationships. Simplistic of course, but it's a starting off point.

I have a 5th House Virgo Mars. I actively pursue romance and creativity, and have been very perfectionist about both!

Would you say you enconter people in your life that embody the principles of Mars?

I've also traveled to other countries third world countries to volunteer with NGOs, which is actually where my passion lies. I think I feel the Mars energy here the most.

Maybe you have your Mars in Aries (6th) intercepted?

If you do that and you come across this in your chart:
http://astrofix.net/2010/08/16/interception-landlocked-countries-and-bjork/

Scroll down and they have a picture of Bjork's chart and they circle where the interception is. You'll notice that the 2nd house and 8th house are intercepted. If you compare this two houses w/ all of the other houses, you'll notice a slight difference, that the 2nd and 8th house are "engulfed' by the black lines that are coming out of the center of the circle. If one house is intercepted, the opposing house will also be intercepted.

Normally I use Whole Sign when working with myself and this puts Capricorn in 3rd house. But, what I'm reading about this interception says a LOT. Plus, my Gemini Moon is really close to the house cusp for 8th house.

If Placidus putting my 28-degree Moon in 7th house makes it just barely far away enough to make my Moon square early Mars not mean much, my Mars makes a square with my North Node and my South Node.

My North Node and South Node are actually in the houses affected by the interception. So, that's actually a connection from the affected houses.

The squares would make it difficult to experience my Mars properly.

This is the explanation that makes the most sense to me. I think it'd be difficult to find a better one.

So I'm not really that confused anymore now that I've found out about this.

Great! Now that makes so much more sense. So basically your 2nd and 8th houses, along with planets, the sign, and other asteroids, are intercepted. These things will basically not be initially "felt" b/c it takes great personal effort for those house matters to really manifest. So it's up to you to figure out throughout this life. You'll feel inexperience in those areas.
