Mars
Pisces symbol

Mars is the "ruling planet" of Aries and the 1st house. The month of March is named after Mars.

Its red color is the result of high iron content, causing it to be interpreted by the ancient Babylonians as firey and warlike.

Mars indicates your power and initiative. On the positive level, you assert yourself to manifest core level goals. Negatively, it can be repressed anger, the need to win at any cost, or excessive reliance on the physical (like sex without love).

1st House
Pisces symbol

The First House describes your outward behavior. It involves your disposition, appearance, manners, and sense of self. It is governed by Aries. The positive use of the first house is that it helps you to put your best foot forward into the world. The negative interpretation is that you can get caught up in excessive ego issues or self-esteem challenges.

     

Learn Astrology: The South Node
South Node

The South Node, sometimes called the "Dragon's Tail," is the intersection point where the moon's orbit crosses the sun's path from North to South. The South Node is exactly 180 degrees away from the North Node, in the opposite Zodiac sign.

It expresses your karma, or the lessons you need to learn from your past life. If you do not believe in past lives, you can consider this point to be lessons that you need to learn, or challenges to overcome, from childhood.

The South Node also gives you hints as to talents that you brought into this life. The South Node is a bit of a double-edged sword. On one hand, you have talents in the sign of the South Node. On the other, you need to use those talents to move to the sign of your North Node.

For example, if your South Node is in Sagittarius, you may have spent many past lives developing wisdom while meditating in a mountain cave. In this life, you may not want to come in to the world from your peaceful mountain. However, you must step into the opposite sign Gemini North Node to do your work in this life. A Gemini North Node person would need to communicate all of that past life Sagittarius wisdom to the world during this lifetime.

Cool Customer Quotes

"I wanted to describe the efficiency and excellence you provide to the customer service side of your business, but also to applaud the grace and goodwill that you embody in your dedication to your art and your life.

"Though that is the short list of the qualities I appreciate about you, those qualities describe some of that which I experienced within my shimmering jubilation as I opened the (it felt like this, I assure you) gift of the Planetary Wheel."

Solar Eclipse, April 6, 2006

This digital mosaic, taken in Turkey by Stefan Seip, caught the Moon in several stages as it moved between the Earth and the Sun. During the center frame, a total solar eclipse was visible, the Moon completely blocked the Sun, and the corona of the Sun became visible. The next total eclipse of the Sun will occur in August 2008.

Monthly Horoscope for Everyone, by Wandering Star

Mars in Cancer: April 13 - June 3

Fiery Mars moves into Cancer during this Spring.

From April 13 through 23, it opposes Pluto, the planet of deep tranformation, in freewheeling Sagittarius. When Pluto is in Sagittarius, it's a good time to explore new options, opportunities, and ways of being.

But since Mars is defiant and aggressive, you're likely to argue about the possibilities than to gracefully open to them!

Pluto rules Scorpio, the zodiac sign of sexuality. Combined with the Cancerian influence from Mars, your area of transformation is likely to focus around your relationships or your home.

On April 18, the Moon will be conjunct Pluto, so any issues you've been avoiding will be hard to ignore. But try not to just blurt out how you feel - call on the Mars in Cancer to take a more nurturing approach. Find a way to communicate without putting your loved ones on the defensive.

While Mars continues in Cancer, take advantage of this Spring to gracefully resolve of the parts of your life that normally put you in a bad mood. Solve the problem, or make peace with it so that it no longer festers unaddressed.
