hink of
Mars as the
Scorpio of
your crew:
in-fuckin’-
tense. It is, after all,
the planet of vitality,
sex, and war. But you
shouldn’t fear our
fiery space neighbor.
Embrace the hell out
of it instead. Because
Mars and its place-
m e n t o n yo u r b ir t h
chart (aka where it
was hanging out in
the sky on the day,
time, and place you
were born) are the key
to understanding how
you take action to
achieve your dreams.
Basically, your
M a rs si g n is w h a t
guides you to work
harder, better, and
f a s t e r t o g e t w h a t yo u
want. Find yours (go
online or use an astro
app like Co–Star or
TimePassages) and
keep reading for the
deets on how you’re
gonna win at life.

Aries
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You don’t have a
problem starting
projects...or stirring
the pot. Innovation
and confidence are
your brand, and you
make crushing it look
easy. But maybe don’t
take up alllll
the limelight.
Virgo
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
Your Martian
superpower?
Efficiency. And you
have at least four to-do
lists going rn to prove
it. As the detail master
of the zodiac, you’re
productive, orderly,
and adaptable. Go
e a s y o n t h e r e s t o f u s
mere mortals.
Gemini
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You’re the OG
multitasker. Case in
point: Meryl Streep’s
Mars is in Gemini, and
she has a lot on her
plate. Avoid burning
out by forcing yourself
to commit to one thing
at a time (I know that’s
hard, bb, but try!).
Scorpio
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You’re basically Oprah
(her Mars is in Scorpio
too). Both of y’all like to
d i v e s t ra i g h t i n t o l i f e’s
biggest challenges.
Use this fuel to catapult
into your passions,
and everyone will
pay attention.
Leo
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
Your office is your
stage—mostly because
you’re a natural leader
and ridiculously
magnetic and your fuel
is anything creative,
energetic, or playful.
Just try not to step on
too many toes along
your way.
Capricorn
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You are persistent and
have high standards.
Everyone else looks to
you and wonders how
the eff you get it all
done. But it can be
tough to enjoy not
hustling, so you’ve
gotta work to relax!
Pisces
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You rarely take action
without considering
your impact on others.
A word of advice:
Set some energy
boundaries so you
can achieve your
chillest but also most
creative potential.
Aquarius
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You’re all about
looking to the future
and helping others
blast to your level.
Warning: Some people
(read: haters) may
think you’re an oddball
revolutionary, but own
your truth!
Taurus
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You refuse to be
rushed. You’re on your
own schedule, taking
your sweet, sweet time
t o a c t u a l l y l i v e y o u r l i f e
between sprints of
working your ass off.
B e s u r e t o p i c k u p t h e
pace if there are big
deadlines though.
Libra
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You’re a peaceful kind
of warrior who finds
success when
surrounded by pretty
things, some bling, and
a harmonious vibe.
Light a candle and
center yourself before
hitting your inbox.
Cancer
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
Yo u’r e s o r t o f l i ke
fellow Mars-in-Cancer
Keanu Reeves, who has
starred in a million
movies yet is still totally
mysterious. Related:
Your emotional IQ is
off the charts and you
rock A+ listening skills.
Sagittarius
IF YOUR MARS IS IN...
You’re the visionary of
the sky and your rocket
fuel is adventure. Know
how J.Lo has had, like,
12 different careers?
That’s prime Mars-in-
Sag energy—big
picture and big
achievement. Plz don’t
be too critical of those
who can’t keep up.
