Mars in Capricorn

Mars in Capricorn means the planet Mars was in Capricorn when you were born. Mars spends about six or seven weeks in a sign, and longer when it is retrograde.

Capricorn is a cardinal earth sign. Mars takes about two years to go round the zodiac. In a chart it is how you act, what you want and how you get angry.

How you act

The long climb

Your energy may be the patient kind, kept in reserve and spent with care. You probably set a goal and walk toward it for years, preferring discipline to enthusiasm. You tend to control your anger, sometimes so well that even you lose sight of it. Responsibility comes naturally. Perhaps your strength is that you can be counted on. The permission might be to rest before the summit, and to want something simply because you want it.
