Mars in Taurus

Here is the translation of the text: Mars is in the 2nd house, in the earth sign Taurus. This is called the "detriment" of Mars. The detriment is usually a weak position, where the planet is not very active, but this is only one side of the story. Mars in Taurus cannot express itself in an adequate form on the external level. However, this does not mean that the position of Mars is weak in itself, because its influence is very strong on the internal level. Mars in Taurus gives willpower expressed in resistance, which means that you will hardly be able to take the initiative. As long as you are not touched or surrounded by a peaceful atmosphere, it is difficult to notice your willpower. You are usually a calm, stable, and peaceful person, and in this case, you are like a bull that grazes peacefully. But if you are pressed, teased, or have your interests hurt, the following can happen. First, emotional tension increases (since Mars is in the 2nd house, Mars cannot express itself in its natural form, so development goes through Venus). Since Taurus is a sign of the Fixed Cross, this tension is likely to accumulate for a long time, like a compressed spring. Then this spring suddenly releases, and a burst occurs, transitioning to a higher level, and then all the accumulated potential can burst out in the form of blind, uncontrolled fury. You often lose control over yourself. In this case, you are carried away, and you are like a raging bull, destroying everything in your path. Again, since this is a sign of the Fixed Cross, this pressure is likely to be quite long, and at this stage, you can act extremely actively, and it cannot be said that you have weak willpower. As a rule, it is difficult to defeat you in a struggle, almost impossible, and in a fight, you develop tactics and strategy. The main problem with you is that you do not engage in time. If situations arise that require immediate reaction, you may simply be late, if you have not worked on this problem specifically, that is, if you have not trained yourself to react quickly. For example, if you are subjected to unexpected aggression, you may be confused. You can respond to the attack, as a rule, if you were prepared for it in advance. But it is difficult to break you, you have a great ability to resist. But in the case of sudden action, you are likely to lose your way, and if you do not have time to sober up, you may manifest yourself as a rather weak person. This is due to the delayed reaction with delayed activation. This shows the weakness of Mars. As a rule, if you have settled somewhere and need to move, it may require a certain, sometimes quite significant, effort. Therefore, if you need to be actively engaged, it is better to form a state of readiness in yourself beforehand. We are not talking about unexpected situations, because any planet in Taurus gives a poor ability to withstand unexpectedness. Taurus is a sign of the fall of Uranus, responsible for revolutions and unexpectedness. To form a state of readiness, you need to act through Venus, and it is very important to know its location. You need to create a situation of emotional excitement. In this state, you do not necessarily have to be in blind fury or drive yourself to aggression. When you are emotionally excited, you may manifest unexpected agility, activity, and endurance. Since Taurus is a sign of the Fixed Cross, if you transition to an active state, you will hold it for a long time. Thus, you can psychologically prepare yourself almost for any predictable situation in advance. Pay attention to the sign in which Venus is located, and through this knowledge, you can create the necessary emotional tension for yourself. Mars in Taurus can give you activity, as a rule, in the sphere of manifestation of Venus. This can be a desire for property, in which case you strive for accumulation, large income, and actively seek pleasure. In particular, you may have a tendency to eat a lot, and if Mars in Taurus is afflicted, this can pass into the stage of gluttony. In general, people with Mars in Taurus often have obesity, and in order to change this situation, you need to work a lot on yourself. With a "bad" Mars in Taurus, if you are teased, you may manifest vindictiveness, trample, and finish off the defeated opponent. If you have a reason for jealousy, it knows no bounds.

A strong greed for money, leading to much effort and time spent accumulating wealth and material possessions. Practical, their energy is spent on useful endeavors and tangible results. They act slowly, yet are resilient and determined once they have decided on something. Not aggressive, but strong and unyielding in a fight. Skilled artisans and craftsmen, working meticulously and with great precision. When pressured, they react sharply, but can be weak-willed. Hooligan tendencies are possible. Very stubborn, they are unmanifested leaders, even though they know their place. Once you have made a decision and set a goal, you dedicate all your strength to it. You achieve your goals with full determination and responsibility, persistently striving to realize your ambitious plans, stubbornly refusing to yield or allow time to resolve many difficulties. You refuse any help until you achieve what you want yourself, or until you are convinced that nothing is working out. In service, you are a reliable, steadfast person, working with high productivity. Often you take on more than others, but you do not complain. You often get thankless work that requires great attention and patience. In everything, you love schedules, set hours, clearly defined duties and tasks. In essence, creating a framework and procedures is very important for your success; it is easier for you to follow a known path to completion. The hardest part is to start. You are prone to laziness and a love for comfort. Often, before starting something, you need to overcome inertia, but once you gain momentum, you reach a level where your energy manifests with strength and consistency. You are primarily interested in concrete, materially tangible, practical results. For you to agree to expend your energy, you need to be shown something tangible, real, where effort has been invested. You are not satisfied with spiritual rewards. Material well-being and the absence of anxiety about tomorrow are also significant factors in determining what you do. Your strength lies in endurance and persistence, but these can also work against you. Routine can consume you. You will refuse real opportunities. You are not inclined to take risks, often preferring to limit yourself to what you have. Possible ailments: gallstones, erysipelas, throat affections.

Mars in Taurus does not feel at its best - it is restricted by the earth sign of Venus, which results in low physical energy and slowness. The spiritual impulses of those born at this time are focused on achieving comfort, which at a practical level boils down to accumulating material wealth. These children arrive at their beliefs through solid evidence, which they pursue with rare passion, persistence, and diligence. One of the most positive traits inherent in this position of Mars is perseverance. Once having decided on something, such a child will steadfastly and purposefully move toward the goal through all obstacles. These children perform any task "above average." Those born with Mars in Taurus are stubborn and cannot be pressured. They resist any attempt to change their point of view or force them to act faster. Parents, remember that such children strive for comfort and possession of material goods. This is in any case for them both the best incentive and the desired reward. But it won't be superfluous to show affection: tender hugs and kisses will encourage and reward the little one. Such children usually do not express their anger openly - they hide it deep inside. This leads to negative feelings accumulating, concentrating, and then an explosion follows - inappropriate, untimely, and unjustified. The result of such experiences can be throat illnesses in the child (Taurus governs the throat in the human body, and Mars in this sign causes health problems). Children with Mars in Taurus possess boundless patience, which allows them to prevail in many situations. Outwardly they seem calm, but inside passions may be seething. Teach your little one to express their feelings to avoid emotional and physical stress. All problems that arise in communication with such children are due to their jealousy and possessive feelings. Those born with Mars in Taurus tend to view loved ones as personal property! Such children should be reminded of the words: "What you hide - you lose, what you give - is yours!" Repeat this often so that this rule becomes part of the child's nature.

"How your child acts and displays his temperament" Your child may appear to be the calm type, but he is a calm force. His style of self-affirmation is unwavering persistence, not weakening until the goal is achieved. He may be reluctant to begin, but where others give up and falter, this child will persevere until what he has started is completed. Your child's energy may not be obvious, but he has great stamina. It will be difficult to make your child lose his temper, but there are limits beyond which he should not be pushed. If provoked into battle, he will be a tough opponent who will not yield. Your child might enjoy one of the following sports: weight lifting, discus throwing, football (especially as a defender), boxing, table tennis, scuba diving, ballroom dancing.

In a constructive version, Mars gives the somewhat ponderous Taurus exactly what he needs: the energy necessary for his hard work with forms. However, the confinement of Mars is expressed in the fact that (instinctively) this energy is most easily directed towards enhancing the crystallization of Taurus in the forms in which it is already found, and increasing the strength of its resistance to any external influences, especially when Mars is affected. Therefore, most often the Martian Taurus feels inner strength within himself, but is unable to truly realize it due to the high density of forms with which he has to deal; at least at first, when he had not yet understood the specifics of those matters and situations that fate ordered to send him for processing.

Greed for money. Spends a lot of energy on acquiring money and property. However, energy is spent on useful things. Mars is in exile, so such a person reacts slowly; he is resilient and purposeful. He cannot be called aggressive, but he is strong and unyielding in battle. A skilled craftsman who uses his tools with great care and precision. In the horoscope of men, this is a sign that he will be a toy in the hands of women: with bad aspects, he is generally only interested in sex. The best defense for him may be true love, true feeling, and not flirting as a tickle of nerves. In the horoscope of women there is an addictive temperament that should be restrained by willpower. Mars in this zodiac sign portends danger from large four-legged animals.

An activity that is difficult to stir up, but then no less difficult to stop. The tension builds up and then discharges with an explosion. It is difficult to anger a person, but sometimes he becomes enraged. Creative activity in material terms or in the world of art. Perseverance and stubbornness, reluctance to go back if the job has already been started.
