1. Mars will be in Libra sign for next 45 days. It is ruled by Venus. As Mars and Venus are neutral towards each other, Mars is in average dignity in Libra; i.e. neither too good nor too bad. Hence, this transit can bring average results to us.

2. Mars represents our actions, efforts, aggression and courage etc. As Mars will be in Libra sign, all these results will be seen in Libra nature of things.

3. Libra is sign of relationship, masses and business. It is also sign of peace and diplomacy. So, we will see Mars energy working on these matters in next 45 days.

4. As Mars represents aggression and dominance, it shows that we can exhibit dominance and aggression towards each other and public in general over coming 45 days. It is interesting that planet of violence is coming into sign of peace and diplomacy. As Mars is in neutral or average dignity, peace and diplomacy should prevail over violence. It can also be interpreted that our energy and actions will go towards maintaining peace and diplomacy in next 45 days.

5. As Libra is also sign of relationship and Mars represents aggression or dominance, it is advised to let go of these Martian traits as they would only spoil human relationship. It is better to utilize Mars’s energy and action to work on relationship matters.

6. At the same time, Libra is sign of business and Mars in Libra can make a person to be very initiative, innovative and active in business matters. They can actively pursue their business plans and would be exhibiting a go-getter attitude towards business.

7. At the end of the day, it depends on person’s evolution level as to where he wants to express or explore energy of Mars in Libra transit. Whether he wants to be aggressive in relationship matters or protective in relationship matters. Whether he wants to dominate others or serve others through actions. It all depends on where we are standing.

This transit of Mars is also creating few combinations with other planets as follows –

a. Mars will join Ketu and as Sun is about to enter in Libra and we are entering in eclipse month (https://www.astrosaxena.com/eclipses), this is the time for taking care of health as Sun will be with 2 strong malefic Mars & Ketu. We also should be careful about Parent’s health during eclipses and avoid ego clashes with people. Ego clashes at work place can lead to problems at work. Of course, ego issues can bring problems in human relations. Mars-Ketu-Sun combination can be more problematic if it is happening in Dushthana Houses or 4th house as per ascendant as Mars-Sun lose their directional strength in 4th house.

b. Mars 4th aspect will impact Capricorn sign. People can be seen putting lots of efforts in that house related things where Capricorn falls to get the best of the results. It is Mars’ 4th aspect which is about taking control. So, wherever Capricorn is falling in your chart, you may like to be in control of matters related with that house.

c. 7th aspect will go to Aries sign. This will make Aries sign important again and our focus will again be shifted to the house where Aries falls in our chart or to the things related with Aries in our lives. Rahu-Jupiter are already transiting Aries, Saturn is aspecting Aries and now Mars-Sun 7th aspect on Aries shows lots of malefic energy in Aries sign or the house where Aries falls in our chart. So, we need to be extra careful about the house related matters where Aries falls in our chart. Again, it is more so if Aries falls into Dushthana Houses. Also, we must avoid negative representations of Aries which are dominance, control and aggressive behavior and focus more on actions, individuality and finding our uniqueness. Only positive thing here is Mars aspecting its own sign Aries. So, it is kind of protecting that house/sign. It means that if we are proactive with our actions/efforts then we can mitigate the possibilities of any major issues in life. But overall, so much of malefic energy in one house/sign is not good to have. At least we should let go of our expectations from Jeeva Karakas of that house and focus more on Ajeeva Karakas.

As always, transits give results only after overall chart and dashas also show same result. So, we need to look at chart and dashas too. Mars’ good position in birth chart can also help us navigating tough transits. Still, needless to say that we need to be careful and aware during this transit to avoid conflicts, arguments and any sudden event. Take extra care of the house where Aries/Libra falls in your chart.

Hope this helps. Thanks,
