Mars in Aries

Mars in the sign of Aries: Mars is the ruler, the lord of the sign of Aries, and thus here it is in its own sign and is therefore quite strong. Here it points to an energetic person inclined to competition, to a leader, a pioneer. These are enterprising people; they travel, go in for sport, act recklessly and rashly, and are strongly attached to sex. They are capable of a heroic deed, their spirit is warlike, they are very sociable. They own domestic animals and property; such people often suffer from accidents, from injustice or from fire. (Tom Hopke)

Mars in Aries: a good place for Mars. An energetic person, freedom-loving, a patriot, strongly concentrated on his own success, has property, a conflict-ridden marriage, marital infidelity, an interest in sport and competitions, a proneness to accidents. The martian energy is strongly expressed if Mars is in the second drekkana; the drekkana is one third of a sign. The second drekkana of Aries is from 10 to 20 degrees of Aries. (Mahesh Dharmadasa)

RESULTS OF THE PLACEMENT OF MARS IN ARIES

If in the birth chart Mangala is placed in Mesha, then the person will obtain lands, glory and wealth thanks to the king, will speak with love, will be brilliant, exceedingly bold and well-known.

Commentary: Mesha [Aries] is Mangala's [Mars's] own Rashi. There is a great similarity in the qualities of the Rashi Mesha [the sign Aries] and the Graha Mangala [the planet Mars]. That is precisely why, whatever special qualities the person possesses, they will be vivid and manifest. Such a person will be exceedingly energetic, full of enthusiasm; he is governed by instincts; he will be angry and impatient. It is not in his character to wait long for anything. Originality can often be noticed in his actions. He cannot bear restrictions or obstacles in his activity and deeds.

If Mangala [Mars] in the Rashi Mesha [the sign Aries] receives unfavourable influences, then it will become the cause of an accident or of operations, of fever, of pain in the head and the like.
