Mars in Taurus in the birth chart

What it means to have Mars in Taurus in your birth chart: how this placement works, its best and its typical pitfall. Free birth chart calculator.

The force of will · Earth, fixed

You are slow to move from your spot, and once you move you do not stop. You prefer endurance to explosion: you can put up with the renovation, the move, the heavy month, the manual labor others abandon halfway. In conflict you absorb for a long time, laughing, changing the subject, swallowing it, until one day you blow up in a way that frightens, and then take days to start talking again.

The light of this placement

You finish what you take on, and that quiet physical constancy tends to yield more by the end of the year than the burst of someone who starts fast.

The shadow — what to work on

Pushing the confrontation to later lets the issue rot, and stubbornness can keep you on a path that you yourself have already seen leads nowhere.

Mars: what it means in the chart

It shows how you fight, desire and assert yourself. It's the planet that explains why one person explodes and another stews for days, and why some only find out they were angry long afterward.

Taurus

Taurus is the energy that gives impulse a body: it takes what Aries started and asks whether it will last. It's the sign of the five senses, of pleasure without guilt, of coffee drunk slowly. People with it strong build at their own pace and hate being rushed, and it's precisely because they don't run that they tend to arrive with what they built still standing.
